MUMBAI, India, Aug. 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517071654 A) filed by Air Products And Chemicals, Inc., Allentown, U.S.A., on July 28, for 'steam-hydrocarbon reforming with low steam production.'

Inventor(s) include Frommweiler, Thomas; Farrokhpanah, Sonia; Graham, David Ross; and Schoonover, Michelle.

The application for the patent was published on Aug. 29, under issue no. 35/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A low carbon-emission hydrogen production process may be achieved by first separating carbon dioxide from a reformer syngas stream, followed by separating the carbon dioxide-depleted syngas stream using a semi-permeable membrane to produce a hydrogen-enriched permeate and a hydrogen-depleted retentate. The hydrogen-enriched permeate is purified to produce a hydrogen product and a hydrogen-depleted tail gas stream. The hydrogen-depleted retentate stream may be recycled to the feed and the hydrogen-depleted tail gas stream may be used as fuel in the reformer burners."

The patent application was internationally filed on Feb. 13, 2024, under International application No.PCT/US2024/015486.
