Process for the production of gas mixtures containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide via the endothermic partial oxidation of organic compounds

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6764549
An improved process for the production of a gas mixture containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide by endothermal partial oxidization of an organic compound with steam and/or carbon dioxide is disclosed wherein at least a portion of the heat required for the partial oxidation is obtained by direct heat exchange with products obtained from the gasification of a carbonaceous ash-forming fuel with oxygen in the presence of steam.
