METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REFORMING, ENERGY CONVERSION MACHINE INVOLVING COMBUSTION AND / OR OXIDATION COMPRISING SUCH A RETURN DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for reforming a reforming mixture, containing a fuel gas and a comburent gas containing oxygen, said reforming mixture not including exhaust gas, in a reforming catalytic converter (36) that is heated by a temperature-retaining means, making it possible for the catalytic converter (36) to be brought to and remain at a minimum temperature capable of being achieved so as to cause at least one reaction for reforming fuel gas. Characteristically, the reforming ratio, consisting of the ratio between the volume flow rate of the fuel gas of the reforming mixture and the volume flow rate of the oxygen (O2) contained in the comburent gas of the reforming mixture is kept substantially constant, said reforming ratio being between 0.1 and 1.
