Abstract

A process for the production of synthesis gas by the use of autothermal reforming in which tail gas from downstream Fischer-Tropsh synthesis is hydrogenated and then added to the autothermal reforming stage.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for reducing metal dusting in an apparatus, said apparatus containing an off-gas, said method comprising the removal of olefins from said off-gas. 
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein olefins are removed by hydrogenation thereof. 
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is an ATR, CPO or POx. 
     
     
         4 . A method of using a gas free of olefins for the reduction of metal dusting of the metal parts of an apparatus in direct contact with said gas. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the apparatus in direct contact with the gas is an ATR, CPO or POx. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the gas is a tail gas from a Fischer Tropsch synthesis. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the gas free of olefins is obtained by hydrogenation of said olefins to alkanes.
