Abstract
A system and a process for CO2 shift is provided. The system comprises a Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reactor, and a heat exchange reactor, HER. A first feed is converted in the RWGS reactor into a first product stream comprising CO. A second feed is arranged to be fed to a process side of the HER. At least a portion of the first product stream is arranged to be fed to a heating side of the HER such that heat from the first product stream is transferred to the process side of the HER, thereby allowing the conversion of the second feed to a second product stream comprising CO in the process side of the HER.

A system for CO2 shift, said system comprising:
- a first feed comprising CO2 and H2,
- a second feed comprising CO2 and H2,
- a Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reactor, and
- a heat exchange reactor, HER having at least a process side and at least a heating side,
- wherein the first feed is arranged to be fed to the RWGS reactor and converted into a first product stream comprising CO;
- wherein the second feed is arranged to be fed to a process side of the HER;
- wherein at least a portion of the first product stream is arranged to be fed to a heating side of the HER such that heat from the first product stream is transferred to the process side of the HER, thereby allowing the conversion of the second feed to a second product stream comprising CO in the process side of the HER;
- and providing a cooled first product stream.
