Abstract: Method are provided for generating synthesis gas (CO + H 2 ) from a hydrocarbon fuel using a Rotary engine system. Hydrocarbon fuels may for example include methane, ethene, ethane, propene, or propane. Oxygen is provided for combustion, for example as air or as an oxygen enriched gas. The hydrocarbon fuel undergoes partial oxidation to generate synthesis gas (syngas). The power produced by the rotary engine can be utilized externally for a variety of applications. The synthesis gas can be utilized directly for producing hydrocarbon fuels, for example to produce methanol or other liquid products via a Fischer - Tropsch synthesis process. The synthesis gas can also be used for production of hydrogen using a water gas shift reaction.
