Patent

CA 2459429

The invention relates to a reformer unit for generating hydrogen from a starting material comprising a hydrocarbon-water mixture, the reformer unit having a reactor vessel; a feed line for feeding a starting material into the reactor vessel; a heat exchanger in the form of a coaxial heat exchanger having a first, outer tube, which is connected to the starting- material feed line, and having a second, inner tube; a further heat exchanger, which is connected to the first tube of the heat exchanger and is arranged around a reformer space; a line which is connected to the heat exchanger and has at least one outlet opening for feeding the gaseous starting material into the reformer space, with a catalyst unit arranged therein which is heated by a burner, at least one discharge line for discharging the reformate which has been formed in the reformer space to the second tube of the heat exchanger, which at a distal end is connected to a shift reactor; and a product discharge line for the product gas which has been discharged from the shift reactor, and at least one discharge line for the flue gas from the reactor vessel. A process for producing the product gas containing hydrogen is also provided.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de reformage de vapeur d'eau compact produisant un gaz riche en hydrogène à partir d'hydrocarbures ou de dérivés d'hydrocarbures par apport d'eau, ainsi qu'un procédé de production du produit gaz contenant de l'hydrogène. Le produit gaz peut, par exemple, être utilisé dans une cellule électrochimique pour la production de courant et de chaleur.
