Natural Gas Reforming Syngas Composition

Syngas Composition Natural gas reforming is one of the largest industrial methods for syngas production, especially for hydrogen manufacturing.

The main component of natural gas is methane.

Steam methane reforming reaction:

CH₄ + H₂O → CO + 3H₂

The resulting syngas has a high hydrogen concentration:

Typical composition:

• Hydrogen: 60–75%
• Carbon monoxide: 10–20%
• Carbon dioxide: 5–15%
• Methane: Small amounts

Natural gas reforming provides high hydrogen yields but produces carbon dioxide emissions unless combined with carbon capture systems.
