Systems and methods for production and separation of hydrogen and carbon dioxide

A process for hydrogen production, the process comprising:

• reacting a hydrocarbon feed stream and oxygen into a reactor unit to form a product gas stream comprising H2+CO;
• passing the product gas stream comprising H2+CO through a steam generating boiler to add steam to the product gas stream comprising H2+CO;
• converting the product gas stream comprising H2+CO in at least one reactor to form a stream comprising H2+CO2;
• heating the hydrocarbon feed stream against one or both of the product gas stream comprising H2+CO and the stream comprising H2+CO2 in one or more heat exchangers;
• heating a hydrocarbon fuel stream against a gas turbine exhaust stream in the one or more heat exchangers and outputting the heated hydrocarbon fuel stream to a gas turbine to produce power;
• processing the cooled stream comprising H2+CO2 in a first pressure swing adsorber to provide a first product stream formed of substantially pure hydrogen and also provide waste gas steam comprising CO2;
• compressing the waste gas stream comprising CO2 in a compressor;
• passing a vapor phase stream depleted in CO2 plus additional steam through a catalytic CO shift reactor to provide a cooled compressed waste gas stream;
• and
• processing the cooled compressed waste gas stream in a second pressure swing adsorber to provide a second product stream formed of substantially pure hydrogen and a second low pressure waste gas stream,
• wherein an overall ratio of H2 product divided by H2+CO present in the product gas stream is greater than about 97%.
