摘要:
A process for maintaining a low carbon monoxide content in a carbon dioxide product that is made in a synthesis gas purification process is disclosed. More particularly, the invention involves an improved process in which a portion of a loaded solvent is sent through a carbon dioxide absorber instead of to a series of carbon dioxide flash drums.

Systems and processes utilize one or more methods of providing overhead waste process heat to increase the feed temperature of the hot solvent stripping regeneration loop in an acid gas removal process. A heated rich solvent stream can be the primary feed for the hot solvent stripping regeneration loop, and one or more slip streams can be heated and then combined with the heated rich solvent stream to form a combined rich solvent stream prior to further processing in downstream units to remove acid gas from the solvent. A first slip stream can be heated in a stripper gas heat exchanger by heat exchange with a stripped gas stream. A second slip stream can be heated in a regenerator exchanger by heat exchange with an acid gas stream. A third slip stream can be heated in a recycle gas exchanger by heat exchange with a compressed recycle gas stream.

The present invention provides a series of processing steps to remove carbon dioxide from synthesis gas. The syngas exiting a hydrogen sulfide absorber is first compressed, subjected to a dehydration step and a low temperature liquefaction and separation to remove carbon dioxide. The high pressure syngas then continues on to a carbon dioxide absorber for carbon dioxide removal. The system can operate with lower solvent rates and equipment sizes compared to prior art systems.
摘要:
Systems and processes disclosed herein relate to the utilization of direct contact condensing to provide heat to a solvent regeneration loop in an acid gas removal process. A first direct contact condenser can be included in the upper section of a concentrator that removes acid gas from a rich solvent stream. A first slip stream can be heated in the first direct contact condenser and can be combined with the rich solvent stream in the lower section of the stripper. A second direct contact condenser can be included in the lower section of an absorber that removes acid gas from a feed gas. A second slip stream can be heated in the second direct contact condenser, and can be combined with the rich solvent stream before the rich solvent stream is provided to the concentrator.
