Abstract
A method for the production of synthesis gas from gaseous hydrocarbons includes the use of allothermal steam reforming with catalysts. In order to produce the synthesis gas efficiently without exhaust gas in a compact apparatus, energy is at least partly supplied by electrical energy, that the energy is supplied by electrically heated contact surfaces and that the energy is supplied by contact surfaces within a fixed bed of catalyst pellets and/or within a fluidized bed at least partly consisting of catalyst particles.
