NOVELTY - Production of synthesis gas comprising predominantly carbon monoxide and hydrogen, which is used to generate electricity in a fuel cell, comprises reacting hydrocarbon materials with oxygen using an oxygen enriched gas.    USE - The process is for production of synthesis gas comprising predominantly carbon monoxide and hydrogen, which is used to generate electricity in a fuel cell useful in an electrolytic process to convert water into separate gas streams of predominantly oxygen and predominantly hydrogen respectively, useful for sustaining and generating an exportable supply of electricity in an electrical apparatus used on offshore oil rigs or at remote locations and used with injecting mechanism for injecting carbon dioxide into porous rock formations below the sea bed or at coal mines. The electrical apparatus is used for the production of hydrogen useful in fuel cell powered vehicles or in static apparatus (claimed), and used with underground coal gasification.    ADVANTAGE - The electrical apparatus can be more easily assembled, transported, and operated in a remote location. Carbon dioxide is easily separated for disposal. Once started, the process requires only the hydrocarbon fuel, air, and water to sustain electricity generation. Such a process can be operated on a large or small scale and can use coal or waste hydrocarbons such as motor lubricating oils, or fuel mixtures incorporating biomass.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for:    (1) a process for treatment of synthesis gas mixture to remove materials, which could have a damaging effect on the operation of the fuel cell to which it is being fed;    (2) a process for adding additional materials to the synthesis gas to improve the performance of the fuel cell;    (3) a heat exchange process to remove surplus heat generated in the reactor and to reduce the temperature of the synthesis gas to a level at which the fuel cell best operates;    (4) a fuel cell or arrangement of fuel cells, which convert the modified or conditioned synthesis gas mixture to an effluent stream containing predominantly carbon dioxide and water, and generates electricity;    (5) a process for separating the carbon dioxide from the materials emerging from the fuel cell; and    (6) a system comprising a computer and a set of software for the control and stable operation of an electrical apparatus.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The figure shows a schematic flow-scheme of an electrical apparatus and synthesis gas production.
