Abstract:
The reactor has a heat exchanging body which includes therein a heat medium flow channel in which heat medium fluid is caused to flow, a reaction flow channel in which a reaction fluid containing a first reactant (and a second reactant) is caused to flow, and a supplement channel for supplying a second reactant at an intermediate portion of the reaction flow channel. A catalyst is provided in the reaction flow channel and promotes the reaction in the reaction fluid. The heat exchanging body has a plurality of holes through which the supplement channel communicates with the reaction flow channel. Steam reforming can be performed using water vapor and hydrocarbon as the first and second reactants.

Claim (Index 11):
A reaction system that causes a reaction between a first reactant and a second reactant to progress by utilizing heat exchange between a heat medium fluid and a reaction fluid, comprising:\n a first reaction unit that causes the reaction between the first reactant and the second reactant to progress in the reaction fluid containing the first reactant and a portion of the second reactant, by utilizing heat exchange with the heat medium fluid; a mixing unit that supplements a remaining portion of the second reactant to the reaction fluid discharged from the first reaction unit; and a second reaction unit that causes the reaction between the first reactant and the second reactant to progress in the reaction fluid to which the remaining portion of the second reactant has been supplemented by the mixing unit, by utilizing heat exchange with the heat medium fluid, wherein each of the first reaction unit and the second reaction unit has a heat exchanging body provided therein with a catalyst that promotes the reaction between the first reactant and the second reactant.
