摘要:
An integrated cryogenic air separation gas turbine system wherein heat of compression within the feed air is provided to nitrogen produced in the cryogenic air separation plant and the heated nitrogen is provided to a gas turbine along with combustion reaction products to produce power.
摘要:
Offgas containing carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide that is produced in the reduction of ores and other metal oxides in a reactor is treated to reduce its carbon dioxide content and is then contacted with metal oxide to reduce the oxidation state of the metal and oxidize carbon monoxide therein to carbon dioxide, following which the reduced metal is oxidized with steam to produce hydrogen that can be fed to the reactor.
摘要:
A method of recovering carbon dioxide from a synthesis gas stream generated within a synthesis gas facility. After the synthesis gas stream is passed through at least one process heat exchanger of the steam generation system located downstream of the water-gas shift reactor, the temperature of the synthesis gas stream is increased while simultaneously adding steam to the synthesis gas stream. Thereafter, the synthesis gas stream is added to an absorption system having an absorption zone utilizing a solvent to absorb the carbon dioxide and a regeneration zone to disengage the carbon dioxide from the solvent and thereby regenerate the solvent. Heat is transferred from the synthesis gas stream to the regeneration zone to promote disengagement of the carbon dioxide from the steam and such that between about 40 percent and about 90 percent of the carbon dioxide originally present in the synthesis gas stream is recovered.
摘要:
A method of producing hydrogen in which oxygen is separated from an oxygen containing stream to produce an oxygen permeate which is mixed with a hydrocarbon containing stream and steam. Steam, one or more hydrocarbons and permeated oxygen is reacted to produce a synthesis gas. Hydrogen is separated from the synthesis gas by a hydrogen transport membrane to produce a hydrogen permeate which after cooling is used to form a hydrogen product stream. The hydrogen-depleted crude synthesis gas is then combusted to heat the incoming oxygen containing feed.
摘要:
An integrated process and apparatus for integrating an alkene derivative process, such as ethylene oxide process, with an ethylene process so that any ethylene entrapped in the purge stream of the alkene derivative process can be effectively recovered through the ethylene process portion of the integrated process.
摘要:
An oxygen separator and method for separating oxygen from a heated oxygen containing gas that employs oxygen-selective ceramic membranes of elongated, tubular configuration within a duct for separation of oxygen from a heated gas. The duct can be attached between the exhaust of a gas turbine and a power generator driven by the exhaust or can be connected to one or more burners of a gas turbine. Supplementary compressed feed air may be added at a flow rate at least equal to that of the permeated oxygen for cooling and flow balancing purposes. A purge stream can also be introduced. Additionally, combustor tubes fabricated from an oxygen-selective ceramic membrane material may also be provided to produce combustion products that in turn can be used as a purge for downstream oxygen-selective ceramic membranes.
摘要:
A system for regenerating chemical solvent loaded with acid gas with improved energy efficiency wherein the chemical solvent is partially flash vaporized, heated, and passed in countercurrent mass transfer contact with nitrogen gas.
摘要:
An annular column, particularly useful for cryogenic rectification, comprising coaxially oriented, radially spaced cylindrical column walls defining a first column region, and a second column region between the walls, wherein different fluid mixtures are rectified in each of the first column and second column regions.
摘要:
Organic sulfur compounds contained in refinery off gas streams having either high or low concentrations of olefins are converted to hydrogen sulfides which can be then be removed using conventional amine treating systems. The process uses a catalytic reactor with or without a hydrotreater depending on the olefin concentration of the off gas stream. The catalytic reactor operates in a hydrogenation mode or an oxidation mode to convert a majority of organic sulfur compounds into hydrogen sulfides.
