CERAMIC MEMBRANE TYPE REFORMING REACTOR

Title:

CERAMIC MEMBRANE TYPE REFORMING REACTOR

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2000026102

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

To provide the method for obtaining a desired product with a high production ratio using an ion transfer reactor.

Both of a cathode side 14 and an anode side 16 of an oxygen selective ion transfer membrane 12 are used. An oxygen supplying first feed stream containing a desired product in a chemically bonded state is sent to the cathode side and, at the same time, an oxygen accepting first feed stream is sent to the anode side. After carrying out the reactions at the both sides of the cathode side and the anode side, a first product stream is recovered from the cathode side and a second product stream is recovered from the anode side of the ion transfer membrane. The total quantity of the desired product contained in the first product stream and the second product stream is made higher than that of the desired product obtained from only one of the first feed stream and the second feed stream.
