Hydrocyclone for cryogenic gas-vapor separation

A hydrocyclone for separating a vapor from a carrier gas is disclosed. The hydrocyclone comprises one or more nozzles. A cryogenic liquid is injected to a tangential feed inlet at a velocity that induces a tangential flow and a cyclone vortex in the hydrocyclone. The carrier gas is injected into the cryogenic liquid, causing the vapor to dissolve, condense, desublimate, or a combination thereof, forming a vapor-depleted carrier gas and a vapor-enriched cryogenic liquid. The vapor-depleted carrier gas is drawn through a vortex finder and the vapor-enriched cryogenic liquid is drawn through an apex nozzle outlet. In this manner, the vapor is removed from the carrier gas.

Systems and Methods for using Cold Liquid to Remove Solidifiable Gas Components from Process Gas Streams
20190178573 · 2019-06-13 ·

Systems and methods are described for removing solidifiable gas from a process gas stream by direct contact with a cold liquid. The process gas stream includes at least gas that is frozen by the cold liquid while one or more other gases of the process gas stream remain in a gaseous state. The process gas stream may include water, and will have a different composition than the cold liquid. The contacting of the cold liquid with the process gas stream may be at a pressure that is less than 200 psia, and optionally less than 100 psia, 50 psia, or even 30 psia, and the solidified gas may be removed from the contacting assembly as a slurry with cold liquid.

Solids-Producing Siphoning Exchanger
20190168175 · 2019-06-06 ·

Devices, systems, and methods for siphoning heat exchange or reaction for solids production are disclosed. Passing a contact fluid through a siphoning device, wherein the siphoning device is made of a contact fluid inlet, a carrier fluid inlet, and an outlet, and wherein the contact fluid passes through the contact fluid inlet, inducing a siphon in the carrier fluid inlet. This siphon then siphons a carrier fluid through the carrier fluid inlet and into the contact fluid. The carrier fluid is, in part, made of a first component. The carrier fluid and the contact fluid mix. This mixing produces a product solid, wherein the product solid is produced from the first component by desublimation, condensation, solidification, crystallization, precipitation, reaction with the contact fluid, or a combination thereof of at least a portion of the first component. The product solid passes through the outlet.
