  • Publication number: 20220324706
    Abstract: A process for the production of hydrogen, comprising a step of reforming a carbon-containing feedstock to obtain a raw hydrogen reformed stream; a step of separating the raw hydrogen reformed stream to increment the concentration of hydrogen and separate a high concentration hydrogen stream from a recovered gas stream; a step of recirculating, in which a portion of high concentration hydrogen produced in the separating step is recirculated to the reforming step together with a steam flow.
