NOVELTY - Providing separation and substantial reduction of carbon monoxide derived from a liquid fuel from a reforming method employed to form hydrogen without using a hydrogen permeable membrane.    USE - For separating carbon monoxide from a gas obtained from a fuel reformer containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide.    ADVANTAGE - The inventive method is able to separate carbon monoxide from the reformer gas in a very simple and economical manner. The hydrogen contained in the reformer gas can be efficiently removed without employing a hydrogen permeable membrane.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Separation of carbon monoxide from a gas obtained from a fuel reformer containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide involves providing:    (i) a liquid fuel in which the carbon monoxide is dissolved from the gas obtained from the fuel reformer;    (ii) a reformer gas containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide;    (iii) steam to shift the reformer gas to form hydrogen and carbon dioxide;    (iv) a solution for removing carbon dioxide from a gas containing hydrogen; and medium for scrubbing impurities within gaseous hydrogen.    The reformer gas is reacted with steam to shift the reformer gas to form a gas containing hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The previously shifted gas is commingled with a liquid fuel capable of dissolving the carbon monoxide to form a gas containing hydrogen devoid of carbon monoxide, and a liquid fuel containing dissolved carbon monoxide. The liquid fuel containing dissolved carbon monoxide is separated from the gas containing hydrogen devoid of carbon monoxide, and is then recycled to the fuel reformer. The previously separated gas containing hydrogen devoid of carbon monoxide is commingled with the solution for removing the carbon dioxide from the gas containing hydrogen. The gas containing hydrogen is separated from the solution containing carbon dioxide. The solution containing carbon dioxide is subjected to heat to form carbon dioxide, and a solution for recycle to produce the gas containing hydrogen devoid of carbon monoxide.
