A catalytic reaction module (10) for performing an endothermic reaction such as steam methane reforming, includes separate reactor blocks (12), each reactor block defining a multiplicity of first and second flow channels (15, 16) arranged alternately within the block to ensure thermal contact between the first and second flow channels. The reactor blocks (12a, 12b) may be arranged and connected for series flow of a combustible gas mixture in the first flow channels (15) and also of a gas mixture to undergo the endothermic reaction in the second flow channels (16). This enables the combustion process to be carried out in stages, with the option of cooling the combustion gases between stages, and introducing additional fuel and additional air. |
