The present chapter deals with the main issues for membrane reactor modelling. Reactor modelling strategies, together with a classification of the main mathematical model categories, are presented and discussed. Then the membrane reactor concept is illustrated and, specifically, dense hydrogen-selective membranes are presented. As an example, a natural gas steam reforming Pd-based membrane reactor is completely modelled. Model equations, derived from mass, energy and momentum balances, are reported and explained together with boundary conditions.

Abstract
The present chapter deals with the main issues for membrane reactor modelling. Reactor modelling strategies, together with a classification of the main mathematical model categories, are presented and discussed. Then the membrane reactor concept is illustrated and, specifically, dense hydrogen-selective membranes are presented. As an example, a natural gas steam reforming Pd-based membrane reactor is completely modelled. Model equations, derived from mass, energy and momentum balances, are reported and explained together with boundary conditions.File in questo prodotto:
