Claim:
1. A method comprising (A) providing a gaseous product stream which is formed from fossil-fuel-based hydrocarbon feed and which comprises hydrogen and carbon monoxide at a mole ratio of H2:CO of at least 2.0:1; (B) forming a syngas stream that is derived from carbonaceous feed material and subjecting this syngas stream to partial oxidation; and (C) adding the gaseous product stream provided in step (A) to the partially oxidized syngas stream derived from carbonaceous feed material and containing hydrogen and CO, in a sufficient amount to form a mixed syngas stream having a H2:CO mole ratio higher than that of said partially oxidized syngas stream derived from carbonaceous feed material.
