A process for preparing a syngas from a methane comprising gas includes reacting the methane comprising gas with an oxidising gas at an operating temperature in the range of 1150 to 1370° C. by means of non-catalytic partial oxidation. A hot raw syngas mixture having a methane content higher than the methane content in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium at the operating temperature applied is passed through a bed of methane oxidation catalyst for oxidising methane with steam formed in the non-catalytic POX into carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The methane oxidation catalyst has at least one catalytically active metal supported on a refractory oxide support material where soot particles present in the hot raw syngas mixture are retained. The retained soot particles are converted to carbon monoxide. Soot depleted syngas is recovered in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium.

The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for integrating pressurized hydrocracking of heavy oil and coke gasification. A coupled reactor having a cracking section and a gasification section is used in the method: a heavy oil feedstock and a hydrogenation catalyst are fed into a cracking section, to generate light oil-gas and coke; the coke is carried by the coke powder into the gasification section, to generate syngas; a regenerated coke powder is returned to the cracking section; the syngas enters the cracking section and merges with light oil-gas, and enters a gas-solid separator, to separate out first-stage solid particles and second-stage particles in sequence, and a purified oil-gas product is collected; oil-gas fractionation of the purified oil-gas product is performed, and a light oil product and a syngas product are collected. Yield and quality of the light oil can be improved by the method.

The present disclosure provides an integrated method and apparatus for catalytic cracking of heavy oil and production of syngas. A cracking-gasification coupled reactor having a cracking section and a gasification section is used as a reactor in the method. A heavy oil feedstock is fed into a cracking section to contact with a bed material in a fluidized state that contains a cracking catalyst, a catalytic cracking reaction is conducted under atmospheric pressure to obtain light oil-gas and coke. The coke is carried downward by the bed material into a gasification section to conduct a gasification reaction to generate syngas; the syngas goes upward into the cracking section to merge with the light oil-gas, and is guided out from the coupled reactor and enter a gas-solid separation system. Oil-gas fractionation is performed to a purified oil-gas product output from the gas-solid separation system to collect light oil and syngas products.
