Feasibility of water-gas shift reaction for mixed gases

The composition of the existing feed gas is as follows, with a flow rate of approximately 10,000 Nm3/h; the CO in this gas needs to be converted into hydrogen through water-gas shift, and then the hydrogen must be separated from the mixed gas. I would like to ask everyone whether a water-gas shift reaction can take place after mixing this raw material gas with steam
Yes, the other gases, argon and nitrogen, are inert gases that do not participate in reactions, while methane reacts with water vapor to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen
Thank you for the guidance. I was wondering if you have any experience in this area. Given the processing capacity required for such raw gas, along with the subsequent hydrogen separation system, what would the estimated investment cost for this entire setup be?
A compressor is needed for pressure increase and location change, as well as pressure swing adsorption for purification; the cost is around 40 million. Catalysts and adsorbents account for the largest portion of the cost
