Abstract

High-pressure steam supply in hydrogen production process is made more efficient by water gas shift process which comprises, in alternating sequence: (a) a reaction stage wherein a feed gas comprising CO and HO is fed into a water gas shift reactor containing a sorbent material capable of adsorbing HO and COand wherein a product gas issuing from the reactor is collected, (b) a regeneration stage wherein COis removed from the reactor, (c) a loading stage, wherein HO is fed into the reactor; wherein said feed gas mixture has a molar ratio of HO to CO below 1.2, and the loading stage is performed at a lower pressure than the pressure of the reaction stage.
