摘要:
A process for producing power from a fuel stream containing at least 30 mol% hydrogen sulfide is provided. The fuel stream is combusted with an oxidant stream containing molecular oxygen to generate a combusted gas stream containing thermal power, where the molar ratio of molecular oxygen to hydrogen sulfide is at least 1:1. Electrical power is generated from the thermal power of the combusted gas stream.

Methods of generating subsurface heat for treatment of a hydrocarbon containing formation are described herein. Steam is provided to at least a portion of a hydrocarbon containing formation from a plurality of substantially horizontal steam injection wells. A mixture comprising hydrogen sulfide and an oxidant is combusted in one or more flameless distributed combustors positioned in one or more substantially vertical wellbores to generate heat. At least one of the substantially vertical wellbores is within ten meters of an end of at least one of the substantially horizontal steam injection wells, and at least a portion of the generated heat is transferred to a portion of the hydrocarbon containing formation located between at least one of the substantially horizontal steam injection wells and at least one of the substantially vertical heater wells to mobilize formation fluids for recovery.

Dehydrogenation catalysts are prepared by a predoping process comprising, mixing iron oxide materials with a predopant to form a blend of iron oxide and predopant and heating the blend to the predoping conditions and thereafter forming a catalyst. The catalysts so prepared are useful in the dehydrogenation of a composition having at least one carbon-carbon double bond. Such catalytic uses include the conversion of ethylbenzene to styrene.

A method of treating a hydrocarbon formation, comprising: providing water (162) to one or more of the wellbores (104) positioned in a hydrocarbon containing formation, (102) providing a fuel stream (152) and an oxidant stream (156) to one or more heaters (150) positioned in one or more of the wellbores, wherein the fuel stream has a hydrogen sulfide content of at least 5% hydrogen hydrogen sulfide by volume as determined by ASTM Method D2420; mixing at least a portion of the fuel stream and at least a portion of the oxidant stream to form a fuel /oxidant mixture; and combusting at least a portion of the fuel/oxidant mixture in at least one of the heaters to heat at least a portion of the water
摘要:
Methods of generating subsurface heat for treatment of a hydrocarbon containing formation are described herein. Methods include providing steam to at least a portion of a hydrocarbon containing formation from a plurality of locations in a wellbore. The steam is hotter than a temperature of the portion. The steam is heated in the wellbore by combusting a stream comprising hydrogen sulfide in the wellbore. Heat from the combustion transfers to the steam. The steam provided the portion at a first location in the wellbore is hotter than steam provided at a second location in the wellbore along the length of the wellbore, where the first location is further from a surface of the formation than the second location along the length of the wellbore.

A process for treating a hydrocarbon-containing feed is provided in which a hydrocarbon-containing feed comprising at least 20 wt.% of heavy hydrocarbons is mixed with hydrogen and a catalyst to produce a hydrocarbon-containing product. The catalyst is prepared by mixing a first salt and a second salt in an aqueous mixture under anaerobic conditions at a temperature of from 15°C to 150°C, where the first salt comprises a cationic component in any non-zero oxidation state selected from the group consisting of Cu, Fe, Ag, Co, Mn, Ru, La, Ce, Pr, Sm, Eu, Yb, Lu, Dy, Ni, Zn, Bi, Sn, Pb, and Sb, and where the second salt comprises an anionic component selected from the group consisting of MoS 4 2- , WS 4 2- , SnS 4 4- , and SbS 4 3 .
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for recovering a natural gas contaminated with high levels of carbon dioxide. A gas containing methane and carbon dioxide is extracted from a reservoir containing natural gas, where carbon dioxide comprises greater than 40 vol.% of the extracted gas. The extracted gas is scrubbed with a wash effective to produce a washed extracted gas containing less carbon dioxide than the extracted gas and at least 20 vol.% carbon dioxide. The washed extracted gas is oxidized with an oxygen containing gas in the presence of a partial oxidation catalyst to produce an oxidation product gas containing hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. The oxidation product gas is then utilized to produce a liquid methanol product.
