A method for producing a synthesis gas for use in the production of a hydrocarbon product, particularly a synthetic fuel, the method including the steps of: providing a hydrocarbon feed gas; optionally, purifying the hydrocarbon feed gas in a gas purification unit; optionally, prereforming the hydrocarbon feed gas together with a steam feedstock in a prereforming unit; carrying out steam methane reforming in a reforming reactor heated by means of an electrical power source; providing the synthesis gas to a synthetic fuel synthesis unit, preferably a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis unit, for converting the synthesis gas into hydrocarbon product and producing a tail gas. Also, a system for producing a synthesis gas for use in the production of a hydrocarbon product, particularly a synthetic fuel.

Synthetic fuels by electrically heated steam methane reforming

The invention also relates to a system for producing a synthesis gas for use in the production of a hydrocarbon product, particularly a synthetic fuel.

Biogas conversion to synthesis gas for producing hydrocarbons

A method for upgrading a hydrocarbon feed gas to methanol, including the steps of: providing a hydrocarbon feed gas; optionally, purifying the hydrocarbon feed gas in a gas purification unit; optionally, prereforming the hydrocarbon feed gas together with a steam feedstock in a prereforming unit; carrying out steam methane reforming in a reforming reactor heated by means of an electrical power source; providing the synthesis gas to a methanol synthesis unit to provide a product including methanol and an off-gas. Also, a system for upgrading a hydrocarbon feed gas to methanol.

Methane rich gas upgrading to methanol

Process for the preparation of synthesis gas from an essentially dry hydrocarbon feedstock () comprising olefins, hydrogen and carbon monoxide, the process comprising the steps: (a) selectively hydrogenating the olefins in the hydrocarbon feedstock at a temperature between 60 to 190&#xb0; C. () to obtain a hydrogenated hydrocarbon feedstock comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide and saturated hydrocarbons (; (b) adding steam () to the hydrogenated hydrocarbon feedstock; (c) performing a water gas shift reaction in the presence of steam on the hydrogenated hydrocarbon feedstock () to obtain a shifted, hydrogenated hydrocarbon mixture; (d) converting the shifted, hydrogenated hydrocarbon mixture () to obtain a synthesis gas.

Process for the preparation of synthesis gas

Process for selectively reforming ethanol to a hydrogen-rich product in the presence of at least one catalyst comprising a catalytically active material supported on a carrier, the process comprising the following steps in which the at least one catalyst is active:

Process for reforming ethanol to hydrogen-rich products

Process for the preparation of carbon monoxide rich gas comprising reacting a mixed gas of hydrogen and carbon dioxide in the presence of a conversion catalyst to carbon monoxide rich gas, which process further comprises reacting part of the carbon dioxide and hydrogen in the gas feed exothermically to methane simultaneously with the carbon monoxide producing reaction and carrying out both reactions under adiabatic conditions, so that the exothermical methane producing reaction provides necessary heat for the endothermic carbon monoxide producing reaction.
