ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are described for reforming hydrocarbons, particularly natural gas, to form hydrogen wherein the reformation is performed in a reactor in which the heat of reformed products are utilized to reform the hydrocarbons in a catalytic tube reformer. The reformer can be used in conjunction with a traditional steam reformer to produce hydrogen with less energy consumption, lower steam production and less capital cost.
