ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, process and use for making hydrogen from a hydrocarbon feedstock and steam using heat stored in a vessel followed by the regeneration of the vessel to restore the heat. Regeneration is done by preheating within the vessel a hydrogen purge gas and regeneration combustion products recycle and mixing the preheated gases with an oxygen containing gas so that they combust within the vessel in a fuel rich mode and heat material disposed in the vessel. This is the heat which is used in converting the hydrocarbon feedstock to hydrogen. The regeneration combustion products are recycled (and substituted for the cooling capacity of the oxygen containing gas) to recover the heat remaining in the vessel following the hydrogen make cycle simplifying reactor bed design and improving operational flexibility. The process is applied to provide hydrogen to a fuel cell.
