Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Reforming exchangers for syngas production are provided. The reforming exchangers can have a shell-and-tube configuration and include a shift catalyst on the shell side of the exchanger to reduce a carbon monoxide concentration in a shell side product gas mixture. Processes for forming syngas using the reforming exchangers are also provided.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A syngas reforming exchanger, comprising: a vessel comprising an elongated shell having a first end and a second end; a shell side fluid inlet adjacent the first end for receiving a hot gas feed; a tube side fluid inlet adjacent the second end for receiving a reactant feed gas; a shell side fluid outlet fluidly isolated from the tube side fluid inlet by a tube sheet adjacent the second end for discharging a reduced carbon monoxide product gas mixture;…
