Abstract
Provided is a hydrogen reformer using exhaust gas, comprising: a catalytic reaction unit which generates a reforming gas containing hydrogen when exhaust gas generated in an engine and fuel are supplied thereto; and a heat exchange chamber which is mounted on an outer surface of the catalytic reaction unit and exchanges heat between the exhaust gas and the catalytic reaction unit to supply heat that is required for an endothermic reaction of the catalytic reaction unit, wherein heat of the exhaust gas is used for the endothermic reaction of a catalyst, such that a separate heat source for the endothermic reaction is unnecessary.
Claims12
A hydrogen reformer using exhaust gas, the hydrogen reformer comprising:
- a catalytic reaction unit for producing a reformed gas containing hydrogen when exhaust gas generated from an engine and fuel are supplied to the catalytic reaction unit;
- and
- a heat exchange chamber mounted on an outer surface of the catalytic reaction unit to provide heat necessary for an endothermic reaction of the catalytic reaction unit by using heat of the exhaust gas.
A hydrogen reformer using exhaust gas, the hydrogen reformer comprising:
- catalytic reaction units for producing a reformed gas containing hydrogen when exhaust gas generated from an engine and fuel are supplied to the catalytic reaction units;
- and
- heat exchange units which are stacked alternately with the catalytic reaction units and installed orthogonally with the catalytic reaction units to supply heat necessary for an endothermic reaction of the catalytic reaction units by using heat of the exhaust gas supplied to the heat exchange units.
