Impurities : Poisoning of the Pd membrane due to H 2 S in the feed The standard principles of Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) analysis were followed to identify and prevent potential process risks to personnel, environment, equipment integrity and/or the efficiency or economics of the process [5.6]. 6

14 Conclusions A standard Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) analysis was pursued to identify potential hazards as well as failure modes and hopefully prevent potential risks In particular, the effect of variations in the total feed flow rate and temperature, catalyst loading, H 2 O:CO ratio, reaction and permeate side pressures and purity of the feed on the process state in the form of possibly adverse process excursions/deviations from normal operating conditions were considered. The absence of adequate control of the reactor temperature as well as the purity of the feed which may cause hot spots and decline in the permeance and selectivity were identified and classified as critical for the operation of the WGS membrane reactor. Utilization of excess steam together with the application of vacuum on the permeate side was found to be the most effective method of reducing the temperature rise in the reaction zone without decreasing the overall CO conversion and H 2 recovery. If the suggested precautionary measures are taken, the membrane reactor could be operated safely without compromising the high performance target levels of 98% CO conversion and 95% extra pure ( %) H 2 recovery. 14
