Syngas Production in Non-catalytic Partial Oxidation Reactor in Porous Media
Syngas, a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, is used as a valuable intermediate gas in important processes such as methanol, ethanol, ammonia, Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis as well as de-sulfurization units. Conventional industrial processes to produce syngas, such as steam reforming, demand high investments and are energy-consuming. Meanwhile, partial oxidation is an alternative method of syngas production with the advantage of lower H2/CO ratio. In the current work, a pilot scale syngas production by partial oxidation in a ceramic porous media is presented. The results obtained from the pilot show that a syngas with H2/CO ratio from 1.14 to 1.47 is produced. The product has lower carbon content than that of a reactor with a common burner. The remained methane, water and CO2 could be removed in the purification unit. According to the observation, when the flame is located upward in the burner, the final product is free of soot.
