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 process for reforming a reforming mixture comprising a fuel gas and an oxidizing gas containing oxygen, said reforming mixture comprising no exhaust gas, in a reforming catalyst (36) heated by means of temperature maintenance allowing the catalyst (36) to reach and remain at a minimum temperature capable of performing so as to cause at least one reforming reaction of the fuel gas. Typically, the reforming ratio, formed of the ratio between the volume flow rate of the fuel gas of the reforming mixture and the volume flow rate of oxygen (O) contained in the oxidizing gas of the reforming mixture, is kept substantially constant; reforming ratio being between 0.1 and 1.
