Modelling and simulation of hydrogen production via natural gas plasma pyrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 1174-1189, March 2026.
Methane pyrolysis simulation model. Abstract Plasma pyrolysis is a cutting‐edge technology that produces hydrogen and solid carbon from methane without emitting carbon dioxide. In this study, we developed a process simulation model in Aspen HYSYS to analyze the behaviour of this technology at the commercial scale.

Iron Oxides for High‐Temperature‐Integrated Energy Storage Systems

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Thermodynamic equilibrium simulations using Aspen Plus delineate the iron–steam redox cycle operational envelope (843–1323 K), quantifying iron conversion (Fe/Fetotal), reaction enthalpy (ΔHR), and pH2/pH2O ratios. Temperature progressively lowers minimum pH2/pH2O for metallic iron formation—from > 5.0 at 843 K to ∼0.8 above 1100 K—while oxidation ...
