How can the production of dihydrogen, obtained from ‘coal gasification’, be increased?
How can the production of dihydrogen, obtained from ‘coal gasification’, be increased?

Solution:

By the course of coal gasification, dihydrogen is created as

C_{(g)}+H_{2} O_{(g)} \rightarrow C O_{(g)}+H_{2(g)} [C-Coal]

Response with carbon monoxide with steam within the sight of an impetus (iron chromate) brings about expansion in the yield of di hydrogen.

\mathrm{CO}_{(g)}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{(g)} \rightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2(g)}+\mathrm{H}_{2(g)}

The above response is known as water-gas shift response. The carbon dioxide can be eliminated by scouring it with sodium arsenite arrangement.
