Production of synthesis gas from hydrocarbon, steam and carbon dioxide, comprises compressing the carbon dioxide using energy generated by expanding the steam

摘要

Production of synthesis gas by supplying a hydrocarbon feed (1), steam (11) and carbon dioxide (16) to a conversion unit (3) comprises compressing the carbon dioxide using energy generated by expanding the steam. An Independent claim is also included for apparatus for producing synthesis gas, comprising a conversion unit with at least one supply line for a hydrocarbon feed, steam and carbon dioxide, where the steam and carbon dioxide supply line is equipped with an ejector (18) having its drive channel connected to a steam supply and its suction channel connected to a carbon dioxide supply.
