Two-stage gasifier and gasification process with feedstock flexibility
A gasification process may include (a) introducing a liquid hydrocarbon feedstock and at least one of a dry feedstock or a first slurried feedstock into a reactor lower section, wherein the at least one dry feedstock or first slurried feedstock is introduced through two primary feed nozzles while the liquid hydrocarbon feedstock is introduced through at least two secondary feed nozzles; (b) partially combusting the feedstocks in the reactor lower section with a gas stream comprising an oxygen-containing gas or steam to evolve heat and form products comprising hot synthesis gas; (c) passing said hot synthesis gas from step (b) upward into a reactor upper section; (d) and introducing a second slurried feedstock into said reactor upper section, whereby heat from said hot synthesis gas supports reaction of the second slurried feedstock by pyrolysis and gasification reactions.
Method for syngas separation at hydrogen producing facilities for carbon capture and storage
Methods and systems for gas separation of syngas applying differences in water solubilities of syngas components, the method including producing a product gas comprising hydrogen and carbon dioxide from a hydrocarbon fuel source; separating hydrogen from the product gas to create a hydrogen product stream and a byproduct stream by solubilizing components in water that are more soluble in water than hydrogen; injecting the byproduct stream into a reservoir containing mafic rock; and allowing components of the byproduct stream to react in situ with components of the mafic rock to precipitate and store components of the byproduct stream in the reservoir.

RECYCLE CONTENT HYDROGEN
A hydrogen composition having a recycle content value is obtained by processing a recycle content feedstock to make a recycle content hydrogen or by deducting from a recycle inventory a recycle content value applied to a hydrogen composition. At least a portion of the recycle content value in the feedstock or in an allotment obtained by a hydrogen manufacturer has its origin in recycled waste plastics.

Garbage in power out (GIPO) thermal conversion process
A system for gasifying a carbonaceous feedstock, such as municipal waste, to generate power includes a devolatilization reactor that creates char from the feedstock and a gasifier that creates a product gas from both the char and from volatiles released when devolatilizing the feedstock. The product gas is reacted in a fuel cell to create electrical energy and process heat. The process heat is used to heat the devolatilization reactor and the gasifier. The gasifier comprises a plurality of configurable circuits that can each be tuned to meet the individual needs of the char material being gasified.
FLEXIBLE PROCESS FOR CONVERTING CARBON DIOXIDE, HYDROGEN, AND METHANE INTO SYNTHESIS GAS
The present invention relates to a process for converting feed streams selected from (1) a gas stream comprising carbon dioxide and a hydrogen rich gas stream; (2) a methane rich gas stream; and (3) a combination of feed streams (1) and (2) into a product stream comprising carbon monoxide, water and hydrogen. The process may include introducing feed streams selected from (1), (2) or (3) and oxygen into a reaction vessel and switching modes between performing method I or method II in the reaction vessel wherein no catalyst is present. The reaction vessel may be provided with a burner located at the top of the reaction vessel, the burner may include coaxial channels for the separate introduction of the different gas streams. Method I may be a reverse water gas shift reaction at elevated temperature. Method II may be a partial oxidation reaction at elevated temperature.
PROCESS AND PLANT FOR PRODUCING METHANOL AND CARBON MONOXIDE
The present invention specifies a process and a plant for simultaneous production of methanol and pure carbon monoxide which includes synthesis gas production by partial oxidation of an input stream containing hydrocarbons and subsequent methanol synthesis. According to the invention carbon dioxide is separated from the raw synthesis gas using a sorption apparatus and at least partially introduced into the input gas for the methanol synthesis reactor.
