Hybrid partial oxidation and reverse water gas shift based carbon monoxide production system

A method comprising:

• supplying hydrogen, a first amount of carbon dioxide, and a first amount of methane to an input stream of a first chamber, wherein the first chamber contains a catalyst and is part of a catalytic reactor;
• converting the first amount of carbon dioxide into a first amount of carbon monoxide in the first chamber via a reverse water gas shift reaction in the first chamber;
• converting at least a portion of the first amount of methane into a second amount of carbon monoxide in the first chamber via a steam reforming reaction;
• supplying an output stream of the first chamber as a first input stream of a second chamber, wherein the output stream of the first chamber comprises hydrogen, the first and second amounts of carbon monoxide, and residual methane from the first amount of methane;
• supplying oxygen and a second amount of carbon dioxide as a second input stream of the second chamber, wherein the second chamber is part of a partial oxidation reactor;
• converting the second amount of carbon dioxide into a third amount of carbon monoxide in the second chamber via a reverse water gas shift reaction in the second chamber;
• transporting an output stream of the partial oxidation reactor through an outer chamber of the catalytic reactor to facilitate the reverse water gas shift reaction in the first chamber and the steam reforming reaction in the first chamber;
• and
• injecting a third amount of carbon dioxide into a third input stream of the second chamber to quench the output stream of the partial oxidation reactor and reduce a temperature of the output stream of the partial oxidation reactor, wherein a portion of the third amount of carbon dioxide is converted into a fourth amount of carbon monoxide.
