Title:
CATALYTIC PARTIAL OXIDATION PROCESS USING A CATALYST SYSTEM HAVING AN UPSTREAM AND A DOWNSTREAM PART
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002047805
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for the catalytic partial oxidation of a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock, wherein a feed mixture comprising the hydrocarbonaceous feedstock and a molecular-oxygen containing gas is contacted with a catalyst system having an upstream part (3) and a downstream part (2), the downstream part (2) being in the form of a porous catalyst bed, wherein the catalyst system is retained in a reactor, the reactor comprising an upstream part (5) that contains the upstream part (3) of the catalyst system and a downstream part (6) that contains the downstream part (2) of the catalyst system, wherein the upstream part (3) of the catalyst system only partly fills the cross-sectional area of the fluid flow path of the upstream part of the reactor and the downstream part (3) of the catalyst system completely fills the cross-sectional area of the fluid flow path of the downstream part of the reactor. The invention further relates to a reactor comprising such a catalyst system and a catalytic reaction zone for the water-gas shift conversion of the effluent of the catalyst system, to a fuel cell system comprising such a reactor and a fuel cell, and to a vehicle provided with such a fuel cell system.
