Abstract

The invention relates to a cyclic method of producing a hydrogen rich and/or a carbon monoxide rich stream using different materials, a first solid material, a second solid material and a CO2 sorbent material.In a first step a first gas stream comprising steam and at least one reductant is brought in contact with the three materials resulting in a hydrogen rich outlet stream.In a second step, the captured CO2 from the first step is released and converted to CO to produce a CO rich outlet stream.The invention further relates to an installation for producing a hydrogen rich and/or carbon monoxide rich stream.
