Synthesis gas generation process
Abstract
Abstract VAPOR. SEPARATION OF THE HEATING AND CATALYTIC REACTING STEPS OVERCOMES PREVIOUSLY ENCOUNTERED EQUIPMENT-IMPOSED LIMITATIONS ON HIGH PRESSURES WITHIN THE REACTION APPARATUS AT REFORMING TEMPERATURES AND THUS ENABLES HIGHER PRESSURE OUTPUT SYNTHESIS GAS. SIGNIFICANT FUEL ECONOMIES ARE REALIZED THROUGH THE USE OF CONVECTION HEAT TO EFFECT THE LOWER TEMPERATURE PORTION OF THE REFORMING REACTION. PROCESS FOR GENERATING HIGH PRESSURE SYNTHESIS GAS CONTAINING CO AND H2 AND USEFUL IN OXO PROCESSES, HYDROGEN PRODUCTION, AND IN THE PRODUCTION OF AMMONIA, METHANOL AND THE LIKE. THE REACTION MIXTURE OF STREAM AND HYDROCARBON VAPOR IS HEATED OUT OF CONTACT WITH THE REACTION CATALYST AND ADIABATICALLY REACTED IN A SEPARATED REACTION ZONE AND ALTERNATELY REHEATED AND FURTHER REACTED AS REQUIRED TO SUBSTANTIALLY EXHAUST THE REACTION MIXTURE OF HYDROCARBON
