MRG® Process

| | |

The MRG^® (Methane Rich Gas) process is low-temperature steam reforming technology that hydrocarbons (such as LPG or naphtha), methanol or DME convert into methane. This process is applied to town gas production, or the pre-reforming step of synthesis gas production for GTL etc. Using a JGC-developed catalyst, this process has realized greater flexibility in operating conditions as well as greater space savings compared with conventional processes.

Simplified Flow for Hydrocarbon Feedstock

Features

A JGC-developed, high-performance catalyst permits operations over a wide range of operating conditions, particularly at low temperatures and low steam ratios.
The MRG reactor outlet gas contains no hydrocarbons other than methane - an advantage that reduces the load on the following process steps.
The compact MRG reactor requires a smaller installation space

Applications


	Available with various kinds of feeds, covering hydrocarbons (from light gas fractions to heavy naphtha), methanol and DME

Town gas production
Hydrogen production
Production of various synthesis gases (CO gas, oxo synthesis gas, methanol synthesis gas, ammonia synthesis gas)

Experience

Town gas production: 19 units (total capacity 3,167 x 10³ Nm³/D)
Pre-reformer for synthesis gas production: 8 units (total capacity 558 x 10³ Nm³/D)
