Abstract

A mixing device for mixing a light hydrocarbon feed, a steam feed, and an oxygen-containing gas stream to form a feed mixture is disclosed. The autoignition of the feed mixture is prevented prior to conversion of the feed mixture to synthesis gas by subsequent contact with an active partial oxidation / reforming catalyst.
