摘要:
A method and system for producing methanol that employs steam methane reforming (SMR) and/or autothermal (ATR) synthesis gas production system, together with a partial oxidation system, is disclosed. The dual mode system and method for producing the synthesis gas in a methanol production process optimizes the efficiency and productivity of the methanol plant by using the partial oxidation based reforming system as an independent source of synthesis gas. The disclosed methods and systems are configurable either as a retrofit to existing methanol production facilities or as an integrated package into newly constructed methanol production facilities.
摘要:
A system and method for producing a liquid hydrocarbon product from a Fischer-Tropsch process using a synthesis gas feed produced in an oxygen transport membrane based reforming reactor. The system and method involve reforming a mixed feed stream comprising natural gas, hydrogen and the Fischer-Tropsch tail gas, in a reforming reactor in the presence of steam, radiant heat from oxygen transport membrane elements and a reforming catalyst to produce a reformed synthesis gas stream comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and unreformed hydrocarbon gas. The reformed synthesis gas stream is further reformed in an oxygen transport membrane based reforming reactor and conditioned to produce a synthesis gas product stream preferably having a H2/CO ratio of from about 1.7 to about 2.2. The synthesis gas product stream is then synthesized using a Fischer Tropsch process to produce the liquid hydrocarbon product and a Fischer-Tropsch tail gas.
摘要:
Oxygen is added to a raw syngas stream that contains hydrogen and CO, one or more light hydrocarbons, and that may also contain tars, produced by gasification of carbonaceous feed material, while imparting heat at a rate greater than 125 BTU per pound of oxygen added, to partially oxidize light hydrocarbons and convert tars if present to lower molecular weight products.
摘要:
A system for generating power as a result of an expansion of a pressurized working fluid through a turbine exhibits improved efficiency as the result of employing a tri-component working fluid that comprises water, ammonia and carbon dioxide. The pH of the working fluid is maintained within a range to prevent precipitation of carbon-bearing solids (preferably between 8.0 to 10.6). The working fluid enables an efficiency improvement in the Rankine cycle of up to 12 percent and an efficiency improvement in the Kalina cycle of approximately 5 percent.
摘要:
A process and apparatus for fireflooding with liquid heat transfer media comprising injection of oxidant gas and liquid heat transfer media into a well through separate conduits, the liquid conduit downstream end submerged in a liquid volume, so as to form a seal and prevent oxidant gas migration into the liquid conduit.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and system for treating a flow back fluid exiting a well site following stimulation of a subterranean formation. More specifically, the invention relates to processing the flow back fluid, and separating into a carbon dioxide rich stream and a carbon dioxide depleted stream, and continuing the separation until the carbon dioxide concentration in the flow back stream until the carbon dioxide concentration in the flow back gas diminishes to a point selected in a range of about 50-80 mol % in carbon dioxide concentration, after which the lower concentration carbon dioxide flow back stream continues to be separated into a carbon dioxide rich stream which is routed to waste or flare, and a hydrocarbon rich stream is formed.
摘要:
A method and system for producing a synthesis gas in an oxygen transport membrane based reforming system is disclosed that carries out a primary reforming process within a reforming reactor, and a secondary reforming process within an oxygen transport membrane reactor and in the presence of heat generated from a oxygen transport membrane reactor and an auxiliary source of heat. The auxiliary source of heat is disposed within the reactor housing proximate the reforming reactors and may include an auxiliary reactively driven oxygen transport membrane reactor or a ceramic burner.
摘要:
A hydrogen production method and facility in which a synthesis gas stream produced by the gasification of a carbonaceous substance is processed within a synthesis gas processing unit in which the carbon monoxide content is reacted with steam to produce additional hydrogen that is removed by a pressure swing adsorption unit. The tail gas from the pressure swing adsorption unit is further reformed with the addition of a hydrocarbon containing stream in a steam methane reforming system, further shifted to produce further additional hydrogen. The further hydrogen is then separated in another pressure swing adsorption unit.
