A system includes an ion separation unit that may receive dilute hydrochloric acid and may generate a concentrated hydrochloric acid and a chamber fluidly coupled to the ion separation unit. The chamber may receive the concentrated hydrochloric acid and may separate the concentrated hydrochloric acid into a liquid concentrated hydrochloric acid and a vapor containing vaporized hydrochloric acid. The system also includes a scrubber fluidly coupled to the chamber. The scrubber may receive the vapor from the chamber, and the scrubber is may remove at least a portion of the vaporized hydrochloric acid from the vapor via a purified condensate to generate a purified vapor and the dilute hydrochloric acid. The system also includes a condenser fluidly coupled to the scrubber The condenser may receive the purified vapor from the scrubber to condense the purified vapor into the purified condensate, and to output the purified condensate to the scrubber.

A hydrogen gas recovery system according to the present ingestion is configured by a condensation and separation apparatus (A) that condenses and separates chlorosilanes from a hydrogen-containing reaction exhaust gas exhausted from a polycrystalline silicon production step, a compression apparatus (B) that compresses the hydrogen-containing reaction exhaust gas, an absorption apparatus (C) that absorbs and separates hydrogen chloride by contacting the hydrogen-containing reaction exhaust gas with an absorption liquid, a first adsorption apparatus (D) comprising an adsorption column filled with activated carbon for adsorbing and removing methane, hydrogen chloride, and part of the chlorosilanes each contained in the hydrogen-containing reaction exhaust gas, a second adsorption apparatus (E) comprising an adsorption column filled with synthetic zeolite that adsorbs and removes methane contained in the hydrogen-containing reaction exhaust gas, and a gas line (F) that recovers a purified hydrogen gas having a reduced concentration of methane.

A method includes injecting a feed stream including a hydrogen halide and water into a vapor liquid separator. The feed stream has a liquid phase and a vapor phase. The method further includes separating the liquid phase and the vapor phase in the vapor liquid separator to form condensate and vapor, and discharging the condensate from the vapor liquid separator in a liquid stream. The method also includes discharging the vapor from the vapor liquid separator in a vapor stream.

This invention provides a hydrometallurgical process for extracting one or more saleable products from a sulphate or chloride pregnant leach solution (PLS), or both. The products may be any one or more of the products selected from the group consisting of: precious metals including platinum group metals (PGMs), gold and silver, base metals, and rare metal elements, and metal cathodes, powders, salts or precipitates thereof; sulphur; hydrochloric acid (HCl); calcium; and silica.

This invention describes a hydrometallurgical process for the recovery and separation of valuable elements, in particular gold and silver, from a feed material comprising a refractory, intractable or otherwise poorly responding to conventional treatment routes ores, concentrates and other materials. In particular, the process is a process integrated into one or more existing value element extraction processes.

The invention relates to a needle assembly (1) comprising: a needle hub (2) adapted to be connected to a distal end of a medicament cartridge or cartridge holder (3), a hollow needle (4) attached to the needle hub (2), the hollow needle (4) comprising a distal pointed tip (4.1), a needle catch arm (5) attached to the needle hub (2) and adapted to be tilted toward the needle (4) for covering the distal pointed tip (4.1).

Impure gaseous hydrogen chloride from organochlorosilane hydrolysis is freed of impurities by first scrubbing with an organochlorosilane, which may be the same or different from the organochlorosilane(s) hydrolyzed, and then further scrubbing with chloromethane. The purified gaseous hydrogen chloride is preferably used in chlorosilane synthesis.

The invention relates to a process for the treatment of a gas stream comprising hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid and fluorinated/oxygenated compounds, in which the gas stream is successively subjected to: a stage of catalytic hydrolysis; a stage of washing with an acid solution; a stage of adsorption of impurities by active charcoal; a stage of adiabatic or isothermal absorption of the hydrochloric acid in an aqueous solution, making it possible to collect hydrochloric acid solution.

Disclosed is process for the production of (E) 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd(E)) by conducting a continuous reaction without the use of a catalyst. Also disclosed is an integrated system for producing hydrofluoro olefins, particularly 1233zd(E). The manufacturing process includes six major unit operations: (1) a fluorination reaction of HCC-240fa (in continuous or semi-batch mode) using HF with simultaneous removal of by-product HCl and the product 1233zd(E); (2) recycle of unreacted HCC-240fa and HF together with under-fluorinated by-products back to (1); (3) separation and purification of by-product HCl; (4) separation of excess HF back to (1); (5) purification of final product, 1233zd(E); and (6) isomerization of by-product 1233zd(Z) to 1233zd(E) to maximize the process yield.
