Abstract

A process for reforming for producing hydrogen and generating electricity, comprises: introducing a feed comprising a hydrocarbon stream to a reformer to produce unshifted synthesis gas (syngas); introducing the unshifted syngas to a water gas shift unit to produce a shifted syngas; removing COfrom the shifted syngas to produce a COdepleted syngas and a COproduct; introducing the COdepleted syngas to a pressure swing adsorption unit to produce a hydrogen product and an off-gas comprising carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, unreacted methane; splitting a portion of the hydrogen product; and providing the portion of the hydrogen product to an electricity generator for generating electricity for use within the process.
