Abstract
A process is disclosed for the partial oxidation of a hydrocarbon feedstock to produce a hydrogen and carbon monoxide synthesis gas employing a temperature of 800.degree. C. or more, one or more inorganic oxide or oxides and space velocities of 500,000 Nl/kg/hr or higher. The catalyst is present on a foamed support which has been present with an impregnating medium comprising one or more inorganic oxide or oxides having a viscosity of greater than 1 cps at 20.degree. C.
