1. Today the synthesis gas is usually manufactured via steam reforming of natural gas. 2. The synthesis gas is scrubbed to remove acid gases and mercury. 3. Synthesis gas is conventionally produced via the steam reforming reaction.4. Similarly noncompetitive, acetaldehyde arises from synthesis gas with modest selectivity. 5. It is also a significant sulfur-containing impurity in synthesis gas . 6. Hydrocarbons other than methane can be used to produce synthesis gas with varying product ratios. 7. Deposits of it also significantly disrupt synthesis gas methanation. 8. In a typical IGCC plant, coal is first gasified to synthesis gas , hydrogen and carbon monoxide. 9. More modern power plants that use synthesis gas extract the sulfur before they burn the gas. 10. If the synthesis gas is passed through a water gas shift converter, the CO converts to CO2.
