Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil pour la mise en oeuvre de réactions catalytiques endothermiques. Cet appareil se caractérise par un réacteur tubulaire comprenant une première partie s'étendant dans une chambre de combustion d'un four, ce réacteur comportant une paroi externe et une paroi interne écartées l'une de l'autre pour définir une chambre de réaction annulaire comprenant un catalyseur, et comprend une paroi écartée de la paroi externe de la chambre de réaction pour définir un passage annulaire pour les gaz de combustion du four passant à contre-courant à travers ce passage pour chauffer le réacteur. L'invention est particulièrement applicable pour le reforming à la vapeur d'hydrocarbures pour fabriquer de l'hydrogène.The present invention relates to an apparatus for carrying out endothermic catalytic reactions. This apparatus is characterized by a tubular reactor comprising a first part extending into a combustion chamber of a furnace, this reactor comprising an outer wall and an inner wall spaced apart from each other to define an annular reaction chamber. comprising a catalyst, and comprises a wall spaced from the outer wall of the reaction chamber to define an annular passage for the combustion gases from the furnace flowing countercurrently through this passage to heat the reactor. The invention is particularly applicable for the steam reforming of hydrocarbons to produce hydrogen.
