Distribution device for a water gas reverse conversion unit

Abstract

Method and apparatus for the production of synthesis gas by converting a feedstock containing CO2, wherein the CO2 (4) is treated with H2 (5) in a reaction unit RWGS (6) to produce gas RWGS (7), and the reaction unit RWGS comprises: a heating zone (A) for heating the CO2 and / or the H2; a distribution zone (B) for uniformly distributing, with respect to gas velocity, a mixture comprising the heated CO2 and H2 to a reaction zone (C); and the reaction zone (C) comprising a catalytic bed for converting the CO2 and H2 into CO and H2O in order to produce the synthesis gas.
