摘要:
Carbon dioxide is purified by processes employing NOx-rich sulfuric acid that can be formed by removal of SO 2 from the carbon dioxide. The NOx is stripped or desorbed from the NOx-rich sulfuric acid. Futhermore, nitric acid and sulfuric acid are formed in the process.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) processes and apparatus to recover carbon dioxide having a purity of approximately >90 mole% from streams containing at least carbon dioxide and hydrogen (e.g., syngas). The feed to the CO 2 VPSA unit can be at super ambient pressure. The CO 2 VPSA unit produces three streams, a H 2 -enriched stream, a H 2 - depleted stream and a CO2 product stream. When the CO 2 VPSA unit is installed between an SMR/shift reactor and a H 2 PSA unit, hydrogen recovery is expected to be increased by extracting CO 2 , thereby increasing hydrogen partial pressure in the H 2 PSA feed. The stream from the CO 2 VPSA unit, normally used as fuel, is recycled as feed to increase CO 2 recovery. The recovered CO 2 can be further upgraded, sequestered or used in applications such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to large capacity (e.g., greater than 350 tons/day O 2 ) vacuum pressure adsorption (VPSA) systems and processes that employ a single train including four beds (42, 44, 46, 48) , at least one feed compressor (36, 38) feeding two beds simultaneously at any given instant in time, and a single vacuum pump (52) . The compressor (s) and the vacuum pump can be utilized 100% of the time. Use of product quality gas for purging is avoided, with about 10-20% improvement in O 2 productivity and 5-10% reduction in capital cost expected.
摘要:
A pressure swing adsorption process including the step of separating a gas mixture by absorbing at least one gas component in an adsorbent mass provided within each vessel of a plurality of vessels. The separating step has a single pressure equalization cycle. The separating step is preferably performed with only four valves per vessel of the plurality of vessels. Additionally, a pressure swing adsorption system of the invention includes a plurality of vessels each containing therein an adsorbent mass configured to separate a gas mixture by absorbing at least one gas component in said adsorbent mass, where the system is configured to separate the gas mixture using a single pressure equalization cycle and includes only four valves per vessel of the plurality of vessels.
摘要:
A pressure swing adsorption process for recovery of a more readily adsorbable component, such as nitrogen, and a larger amount of a less readily adsorbable component, such as oxygen, from a feed gas mixture, such as air, wherein the ratio of nitrogen to oxygen is less than about 3:1 and the ratio of the co-purge:feed gas of the process is maintained at less than about 1.15:1.
摘要:
A gas recovery system comprising a source of gas having a preselected concentration of a desired component (9), at least one application (1) that adds impurities to said gas, and at least one an adsorption system (6) that purifies said gas to produce a purified gas for re-use in application (1), wherein said at least one adsorption system includes at least one adsorbent bed (A) having at least three layers of adsorbents. A recovery process is also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a dual feed and dual vacuum four bed VPSA process for selectively adsorbing a component from a feed stream, e.g., nitrogen from air, to produce an oxygen-enriched gas stream using a multi-port indexing drum valve, a system comprising a multi-port indexing drum valve and method for operating such a system.
摘要:
A pressure swing adsorption system including a plurality of vesse!s(1-7) having one or more layers of adsorbent material therein, a feed gas channel(ll?), a waste channel(120), and a product channel(130). The system also includes at least one parallel channel(140) connected to each of the vessels via a respective conduit with a valve(14). At least one pressure measuring device(M2) is configured to measure a pressure within the parallel channel. And a controller is provided that is configured to monitor the at least one pressure measured by the at least one pressure measuring device during a PSA cycle performed within the PSA system, in order to determine the performance of the cycle and monitor proper operation of the system.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) processes and apparatus to recover CO 2 having a purity of approximately ≥80 mole% from streams containing at least CO 2 and H 2 (e.g., syngas). The feed to the CO 2 VPSA can be at super ambient pressure. The CO 2 VPSA unit produces two streams, a H 2 -enriched stream and a CO 2 product stream. The process cycle steps are selected such that there is minimal or no H 2 losses from the process. The recovered CO 2 can be further upgraded, sequestered or used in applications such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
