METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING A SYNTHESIS GAS USING GAS USING AN OXYGEN TRANSPORT MEMBRANE BASED REFORMING SYSTEM WITH SECONDARY REFORMING AND AUXILIARY HEAT SOURCE

摘要

A method and system for producing a synthesis gas in an oxygen transport membrane based reforming system is disclosed that carries out a primary reforming process within a reforming reactor, and a secondary reforming process within an oxygen transport membrane reactor and in the presence of heat generated from a oxygen transport membrane reactor and an auxiliary source of heat. The auxiliary source of heat is disposed within the reactor housing proximate the reforming reactors and may include an auxiliary reactively driven oxygen transport membrane reactor or a ceramic burner.
