    摘要: Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is performed using a compact catalytic reactor unit (10) defining channels in which is a gas-permeable catalyst structure (16), the channels extending between headers (18). The synthesis occurs in at least two stages, as the reactor unit provides at least two successive channels (14, 14a) for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis connected by a header, the gas flow velocity through the first channel being sufficiently high that no more than 65% of the carbon monoxide undergoes conversion. The gases are cooled (25) in the header between the two stages, so as to condense water vapour, and then pass through the second channel at a sufficiently high gas flow velocity that no more than 65% of the remaining carbon monoxide undergoes conversion. This lowers the partial pressure of water vapour and so suppresses oxidation of the catalyst.

    摘要: A plant (10) for producing hydrogen from a feed gas comprising short chain hydrocarbons, the plant comprising reactor means (14) defining channels for treating the feed gas in three successive stages, the channels for treating the feed gas in each case being adjacent to respective heat transfer channels, and the successive treatment stages being as follows: (a) pre-heating the feed gas (16b); (b) subjecting a mixture of steam and the heated feed gas to reforming (18b) in the presence of a reforming catalyst, while providing heat from adjacent channels (18a) in which catalytic combustion occurs; and (c) subjecting the gases produced by reforming to the water gas shift reaction (20b) in the presence of a shift catalyst, whilst removing heat into adjacent channels (20a) to generate steam. Preferably the reactor means is a single integrated reactor (14) in which all three of the successive treatment stages (16, 18, 20) occur, so that the heat transfers between the various fluids are also integrated. Such a reactor may be formed by a stack of plates between which the treatment channels and heat transfer channels are defined alternately in the stack.
