[en] Highlights: • Two-train elevated temperature pressure swing adsorption for H₂ purification. • Optimal process achieves 99.9994% hydrogen purity and 97.51% hydrogen recovery ratio. • Total steam consumption is significantly reduced with reflux structures. The trade-off between hydrogen recovery ratio (HRR) and hydrogen purity (HP) is one of the main drawbacks in normal temperature pressure swing adsorption (NT-PSA) for producing high-purity hydrogen from shifted gas. In this paper, a two-train elevated-temperature pressure swing adsorption (ET-PSA) process that achieved 99.999% HP and over 95% HRR is proposed, which has wide application potentials in fuel cells and chemical industries. Potassium-promoted layered double oxide (K-LDO), which shows reasonable working capacity and fast adsorption/desorption kinetics at elevated temperatures (200–450 °C), is adopted as the CO₂ adsorbent. CO in the shifted gas is co-purified by high-temperature water gas shift (WGS) catalysts added to the columns. The first-train ET-PSA adopted an eight-column thirteen-step configuration with shorter step time to remove most of the CO/CO₂ in the shifted gas, and the second-train ET-PSA adopted a double-column seven-step configuration with longer step time to purify the residual gas impurities. The introduction of co-current high-pressure steam rinse and counter-current low-pressure steam purge is the key to achieve both high HRR and HP. The high-temperature steam is the main energy consumption of ET-PSA rather than low HRR in NT-PSA, and the total steam consumption is reduced by adopting the tail gas from second-train ET-PSA as the purge gas for first-train ET-PSA. The optimal results achieved 97.51% HRR and 99.9994% HP with only 0.188 rinse-to-feed ratio and 0.263 purge-to-feed ratio, which are the highest values reported for PSAs producing high-purity hydrogen from carbon-based fuels.
