Abstract:	In this paper experimental results are presented for a demonstration unit of a recently proposed novel integrated reactor concept (Smit et. al., 2005) for the partial oxidation of natural gas to syngas (POM), namely a Reverse Flow Catalytic Membrane Reactor (RFCMR). Natural gas has great potential as a feedstock for the production of liquid fuels via the Gas-To-Liquid (GTL) process, but this process has not found widespread application yet, mainly due to the large costs associated with cryogenic air separation and complex heat integration
