The methane-to-syngas (MTS) chemical looping process is an advanced methane reforming technology for the production of high purity syngas. The developed MTS process utilizes metal oxide oxygen carriers in a cocurrent moving bed reactor to partially oxidize the methane such that the resulting syngas stream is undiluted by nitrogen in air or H-2 from overconversion and directly suitable for downstream processing. The oxygen carriers are regenerated with air in a separate fluidized bed reactor producing a spent air stream separate from the product syngas, circumventing the need for cryogenic air separation units. In this work, a 15 kW(th) subpilot unit is designed and operated in a continuous manner to experimentally confirm the viability of the MTS process. Reactor design considerations and methodology are discussed in detail. An iron-titanium composite oxygen carrier is used as the oxygen carrier for its ability to achieve high methane conversion while regulating the product syngas to the partial oxidation products, CO and H-2. Syngas is produced with an H-2/CO ratio of similar to 2, and a purity of similar to 97% is produced with methane conversion exceeding 99%. The coinjection of methane with H-2 and/or H2O is explored for the purpose of H-2 utilization and flexible H-2/CO ratios, allowing the MTS process to produce syngas for a variety of downstream processes without reactor modification. The results indicate that syngas with H-2/CO ratios ranging from 1.19 to 2.50 with high methane conversion and syngas purity can be produced with coinjection. No evidence of carbon deposition on the oxygen carrier is revealed, and the oxygen carrier retained structural integrity after subjection to reaction and circulation in the subpilot unit.
