Definitions

  • the steam reforming reaction is brought about by mixing steam and methane, and contacting the mixture with a suitable catalyst at an elevated temperature so the steam and methane react to form carbon monoxide and hydrogen.
  • the steam reforming reaction is endothermic, and the heat may be provided by catalytic combustion, for example of hydrocarbons mixed with air, so combustion takes place over a combustion catalyst within adjacent flow channels within the reforming reactor.
  • FIG 1 there is shown a reactor block 10 suitable for use as a steam reforming reactor, or for use in a steam reforming reactor.
  • the reactor block 10 defines channels for a catalytic combustion process and channels for steam methane reforming.

Abstract

Selon l'invention, une réaction endothermique est effectuée dans un réacteur (10) qui délimite une pluralité de premiers et seconds canaux de circulation (16, 17) disposés en alternance dans le réacteur pour assurer le contact thermique entre les premiers et seconds canaux de circulation. Le mélange de gaz (S) qui doit subir la réaction endothermique est introduit dans les seconds canaux de circulation (16). Le réacteur (10) comprend un collecteur d'entrée (30) en communication avec une pluralité des premiers canaux de circulation (17) et un mélange de gaz combustible (C) est introduit par le collecteur (30). Le mélange de gaz combustible est préchauffé et le débit est suffisamment élevé pour que le temps de séjour dans le collecteur (30) soit inférieur à 2 s. Si le temps de séjour est suffisamment court, le mélange peut être préchauffé à une température au-dessus de la température d'inflammation spontanée pour du gaz statique.
