TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated hydrocarbon reforming system for use with an associated fuel cell is presented, the system including a gas generator having a partial oxidation chamber, a steam reforming chamber, and integrated shift beds, a preferential oxidation reactor, optionally including a second preferential oxidizer and a chiller condenser interposed in-line with the two oxidation reactors, an auxiliary reactor with preheating, combustion, and stream generation capabilities, and an integrated fluid system whereby water, steam, fuel, and air can be effectively shared between system components for increased efficiencies and operation.
