Process for operating a device for steam reforming of methanol

摘要

Process for operating a plant for the steam reforming of methanol comprises preparing a steam/methanol mixture and feeding this mixture (2) into a reformer (1). The novelty is that the steam/methanol ratio ( lambda ) of the mixture (2) is adjusted depending on the charge state (B) and charge changes of the plant so that a co-concentration (Ks) remaining over the whole charge region is produced in the reformate (3).
