Nowadays, natural gas reforming by steam is and important technique for hydrogen production. According to the fact that reaction of hydrogen production is an endothermic reaction, high energy consumption is required. In this research, the effect of operating temperature of furnace reformer unit in various capacities on productive efficiency and energy consumption of this unit was studied. Also an appropriate procedure was recommended for optimization of furnace reformer temperature. The obtained results showed that in a special capacity by decreasing of furnace reformer temperature up to 10 oC the consumed fuel was declined up to 200 NM3/h whereas the outlet stream located in standard specifications. Also results exhibited linear trend for the optimization.
