DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE CATALYTIC REFORMATION OF HYDROCARBONS OR ALCOHOLS

摘要

The invention relates to a device and a method for the catalytic reformation of hydrocarbons or alcohols to hydrogen in several intermediate reactions. The several intermediate reactions are carried out either individually, or in combination with at least two of the several intermediate reactions in a micro-reactor network, comprising micro-reactors and channels formed between said micro-reactors. Starting materials and/or reaction products of the several intermediate reactions are transported through at least a part of the channels between reaction chambers in the micro-reactors. Reaction progress of the several intermediate reactions in the micro-reactor network is controlled by means of process controllers for controlling process parameters.
