The partial-oxidation process differs only in the initial stages before the water gas shift converter. Because it is a noncatalyzed process, desulfurization can be carried out further downstream. The proportions of a mixture of heavy oil or coal, etc, O2, and steam, at very high temperature, are so adjusted that the exit gases contain a substantial proportion of H2 and carbon monoxide.

The saturated, cleaned raw synthesis gas from a Texaco partial oxidation system is first shifted by use of a sulfur resistant catalyst. Steam required for shifting is already present ia the gas by way of the quench operation ia the generator. The shifted gas is then processed for hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide removal followed by Hquid nitrogen scmbbiag. 

The overall process for producing a 1 1 CO to ratio by partial methane oxidation and the water gas shift reaction is represented by equation 5.

Ammonia production by partial oxidation of hydrocarbon feeds depends to some degree on the gasification step. The clean raw synthesis gas from a Shell partial oxidation system is first treated for sulfur removal, then passed through shift conversion. A Hquid nitrogen scmbbiag step follows. 

Reforming is completed in a secondary reformer, where air is added both to elevate the temperature by partial combustion of the gas stream and to produce the 3 1 H2 N2 ratio downstream of the shift converter as is required for ammonia synthesis. The water gas shift converter then produces more H2 from carbon monoxide and water. A low temperature shift process using a zinc—chromium—copper oxide catalyst has replaced the earlier iron oxide-catalyzed high temperature system. The majority of the CO2 is then removed. 

Methanol. Methanol is produced by stoichiometric reaction of CO and H2. The syngas produced by coal gasification contains insufficient hydrogen for complete conversion to methanol, and partial CO shifting is required to obtain the desired concentrations of H2, CO, and CO2. These concentrations are expressed in terms of a stoichiometric number, ((H2 — CO)/(H2 + CO2), which has a desired value of 2. In some cases CO2 removal is required to achieve the stoichiometric number target. CO and H2 are then reacted to form methanol in a catalytic methanol synthesis reactor. 

Synthesis gas, a mixture of CO and o known as syngas, is produced for the oxo process by partial oxidation (eq. 2) or steam reforming (eq. 3) of a carbonaceous feedstock, typically methane or naphtha. The ratio of CO to may be adjusted by cofeeding carbon dioxide (qv), CO2, as illustrated in equation 4, the water gas shift reaction. 

Equations A3.11.114(b) and A3.11.115(b) are in a fonn that is convenient to use for potential scattering problems. One needs only to detemiine the phase shift 5 for each i, then substitute into these equations to detemiine the cross sections. Note that in the limit of large i, finiist vanish so that the infinite sum over partial waves iwill converge. For most potentials of interest to chemical physics, the calculation of finiist be done numerically. 

The Phillips Steam Active Reforming (STAR) process catalyticaHy converts isobutane to isobutylene. The reaction is carried out with steam in tubes that are packed with catalyst and located in a furnace. The catalyst is a soHd, particulate noble metal. The presence of steam diluent reduces the partial pressure of the hydrocarbons and hydrogen present, thus shifting the equHibrium conditions for this system toward greater conversions. 

The principal reactions are reversible and a mixture of products and reactants is found in the cmde sulfate. High propylene pressure, high sulfuric acid concentration, and low temperature shift the reaction toward diisopropyl sulfate. However, the reaction rate slows as products are formed, and practical reactors operate by using excess sulfuric acid. As the water content in the sulfuric acid feed is increased, more of the hydrolysis reaction (Step 2) occurs in the main reactor. At water concentrations near 20%, diisopropyl sulfate is not found in the reaction mixture. However, efforts to separate the isopropyl alcohol from the sulfuric acid suggest that it may be partially present in an ionic form (56,57). 

Cmde gas leaves from the top of the gasifier at 288—593°C depending on the type of coal used. The composition of gas also depends on the type of coal and is notable for the relatively high methane content when contrasted to gases produced at lower pressures or higher temperatures. These gas products can be used as produced for electric power production or can be treated to remove carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons to provide synthesis gas for ammonia, methanol, and synthetic oil production. The gas is made suitable for methanation, to produce synthetic natural gas, by a partial shift and carbon dioxide and sulfur removal.
