water-gas

The only relatively efficient way I know of to get hydrogen from oil or coal is by way of the water-gas reaction.

The water-gas reaction is endothermic, and requires energy input to proceed.

The key to plastics manufacture on Mars is the production of synthetic ethylene, which itself can be done as an extension of the reverse water-gas shift RWGS reaction discussed in Chapter 6 as a means for making oxygen.

An alternative that would keep the set of processes employed firmly within the world of Gaslight Era industrial chemistry would be to run the well-known to chemical engineers “water-gas shift” reaction in reverse.

He then turned to the study of flames and did fundamental researches on the Bunsen flame, showing that, in the luminous inner cone of this flame, a thermodynamic water-gas equilibrium is established and that, in its outer mantle, there is combustion of water-gas.

Next is the formation of water-gas by the chemical reaction, C + H_ {2} O = CO + 2H, the steam being decomposed, its oxygen burning the carbon of the coal to carbonic oxide, and the hydrogen being liberated.

Steam, Its Generation and Use

The class of liquid fuels is represented chiefly by petroleum, though coal tar and water-gas tar are used to a limited extent.

Steam, Its Generation and Use

In burning, it should be heated only to a temperature which makes it sufficiently fluid, and any furnace suitable for crude oil is in general suitable for water-gas tar.
