ABSTRACT:
A multiple-stage steam reforming process for producing a substitute natural gas from kerosene boiling range hydrocarbons. Initially, a lower-boiling feedstock is steam reformed and a portion of the effluent is subjected to hydrogen-producing conditions to provide a vaporous phase enriched in hydrogen content. This vaporous phase is utilized throughout the reaction zone circuit to decrease the extent to which carbon becomes deposited upon the various catalytic composites, and especially with respect to those reaction zones in which the kerosene boiling range hydrocarbons are processed. Gasification of the kerosene fractions is effected at a minimum catalyst temperature of about 840.degree. F. (448.9.degree. C.) and a maximum catalyst temperature of about 1,000.degree. F. (537.8.degree. C.).
