Abstract: The present disclosure relates in a broad form to a pseudo-isothermal flow reactor (100) for an exothermal reaction comprising at least two reaction enclosures (108, 114) and a cooling medium enclosure (102) configured to hold a cooling medium under pressure at the boiling point of said cooling medium, said reaction enclosures (108, 114) having an outer surface configured to be in thermal contact with the cooling medium, and each of said reaction enclosures (108, 114) having an inlet and an outlet with the associated benefit of enabling a two-stage pseudo-isothermal operation while only requiring a single cooling medium enclosure (102) and only single cooling medium circuit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and apparatus for the production of synthesis gas from a hydrocarbon feedstock in a heat exchanger reformer, wherein a cooling medium is added to the heat exchange reformer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a condenser, having a process gas side and a heat transfer medium side said condenser being configured for feeding a hot process gas containing a condensable component to an inlet of the condensing side, and being further configured for withdrawing a cooled process gas from an outlet of the condensing side, and being even further configured for withdrawing a condensate in a position proximate to one end of the condenser, and said condenser having the process gas side divided in a process gas cooling zone configured for having a cool heat transfer medium inlet and a heated heat transfer medium outlet, and a process gas re-heating zone downstream the process gas cooling section, configured for re-heating of the process gas, as well as a processes for condensation and production of sulphuric acid employing such a condenser.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of synthesis gas from a hydrocarbon feedstock, wherein the entire hydrocarbon feed is passed through a radiant furnace, heat exchanger reformer and autothermal reformer in a series arrangement, in which effluent gas from the autothermal reformer is used as heat source for the reforming reactions occurring in the heat exchange reformer and wherein a cooling medium is added to the heat exchange reformer.
