Abstract
A reactor for manufacturing synthesis gas as a single housing, equipped with a non-catalytic combustion chamber having at least one device for injecting a fuel and at least one device for injecting an oxidizer so as to achieve partial combustion in said chamber, and at least one catalytic bed from which the gases coming from the combustion chamber discharge into, said catalytic bed being equipped with at least one device for injecting an additional oxidizer. A process for operating the reactor may be applied to any chemical manufacturing utilizing synthesis gas, such as the manufacturing of ammonia, urea, methanol, higher hydrocarbons, etc.
