ABSTRACT:
Hydrocarbons are reformed with steam to produce synthesis gas or hydrogen and carbon monoxide. This reforming process can be improved if after the carbon monoxide in the reformer effluent is removed, the remaining effluent, essentially hydrogen, is recycled to the reformer. Carbon dioxide must be added to the reformer inlet in an amount to balance the hydrogen present in the recycle. By this process larger quantities of carbon monoxide relative to the hydrogen produced can be realized.
