CO-PRODUCTION OF SYNTHESIS GAS AND POWER

摘要

A process (10) for co-producing synthesis gas and power includes in a synthesis gas generation stage, producing a hot synthesis gas and, in a nuclear power generation stage (12), heating a working fluid with heat generated by a nuclear reaction to produce a heated working fluid and generating power by expanding the heated working fluid using one or more turbines (16), with additional heating (14) of the heated working fluid by indirect transfer of heat from the hot synthesis gas to the heated working fluid.
