Abstract

A hydrocarbon stream is combusted within a reactor to produce soot and syngas. Sub-stoichiometric combustion of the hydrocarbon stream within the reactor converts at least 10% of the carbon in the hydrocarbon stream into soot. The syngas is mixed with a steam stream to produce a hydrogenation feed stream. A shift reactor converts at least a portion of the carbon monoxide and steam to carbon dioxide and hydrogen to produce a shifted gas stream. Water is separated from the shifted gas stream to produce a dehydrated gas stream. The dehydrated gas stream is separated to produce a hydrogen product stream and a recycle stream. The recycle stream is recycled to the reactor.
