    Abstract: A process for the production of hydrogen comprising the steps of: (i) subjecting a gaseous mixture comprising a hydrocarbon and steam to steam reforming in reformer followed by autothermal reforming with an oxygen-rich gas to generate a reformed gas mixture, (ii) increasing the hydrogen content of the reformed gas mixture by subjecting it to one or more water-gas shift stages in a water-gas shift unit to provide a hydrogen-enriched reformed gas, (iii) passing the hydrogen-enriched reformed gas and an oxygen-rich gas to an oxidation unit containing an oxidation catalyst that converts carbon monoxide present in the hydrogen-enriched reformed gas to carbon dioxide, to form a carbon-dioxide enriched gas mixture, (iv) cooling the carbon dioxide-enriched gas mixture and separating condensed water therefrom, and (v) passing the carbon dioxide enriched gas mixture to a carbon dioxide separation unit to provide a carbon dioxide gas stream and a hydrogen product gas stream.
