Achieve efficient hydrogen production. Our bayonet reformer SMR-b combines the novel properties of convection and radiant heat transfer in one steam reformer.

Tubular radiant wall steam reformer

The radiant wall steam reformer consists of a number of catalyst tubes in a single line in one or two fired boxes with burners placed at the walls at several elevations.

SynCOR™ - Autothermal Reformer (ATR)

Achieve autothermal reforming at low steam-to-carbon ratio. Our SynCOR process not only offers the market’s lowest cost of ownership, it is also supported by 70 years of proven reliability and ...

SynCOR™ CTS burner

A high-performance burner for reliable reformer operation. With the CTS burner, the process gas is well mixed and evenly distributed before it enters into the target tile layer and the catalyst ...

Heat Exchange Reformer (HTER)

Maximize your reforming efficiency with heat-integrated HTER technology. The HTER is ideal for all synthesis gas production and in particular for hydrogen and ammonia production.

HTZR™ target tiles

Enhance reactor performance and achieve increased lifetime of the floor, reduced material deposition in the catalyst bed, longer runtime and reduced risk of critical disintegration of the tile ...

Rampart™ catalyst bed support structure

Ensure a strong and reliable bottom support system, which takes up the same or less space than conventional support systems and minimizes operational risks and the need for maintenance.
