Patent

CA 2427464

A steam reformer includes a shell, a reforming region within the shell, and a hydrogen purification module. The shell has an outer surface and is adapted to receive a reforming feedstock containing water and at least one of a hydrocarbon and an alcohol. The reforming region includes a reforming catalyst bed adapted to receive the feedstock and convert the feedstock into a reforming product stream including hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. The hydrogen purification module includes a hydrogen- selective membrane in fluid communication with the reforming catalyst bed. The membranes is adapted to produce a permeate stream comprised of a portion of the reforming product stream which passes through the membrane, and a byproduct stream comprised of a portion of the reforming product stream which does not pass through the membrane. The hydrogen- selective membrane includes palladium, copper and oxygen, and contains no more than 29 ppm oxygen.
