The present disclosure relates to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus and, more particularly, to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus, which are capable of adjusting the discharge rate of the cleaning liquid in a noxious gas removal unit, which removes noxious gas remaining in a gaseous state in the cleaning liquid discharged from the exhaust gas treatment apparatus and discharges the cleaning liquid from which the noxious gas in the gaseous state has been removed, on the basis of a result of measurement of the level of the cleaning liquid in the noxious gas removal unit.

The present disclosure includes systems and methods that integrate a flare gas recovery process with a gas sweetening process used in oil and gas refining. A flare gas recovery system includes a primary gas sweetening unit and a liquid-driven ejector in continuous fluid communication with the primary gas sweetening unit. The ejector includes an inlet configured to receive a motive fluid including a regenerable amine solvent in a lean state from the primary gas sweetening unit, a gas inlet configured to receive a suction fluid including a gas, and a fluid outlet configured to either directly or indirectly discharge to the primary gas sweetening unit a two-phase fluid including a mixture of the suction fluid and the amine solvent in a rich state.

A gas processing system is described herein. The gas processing system includes a number of co-current contacting systems configured to contact a sour feed gas stream including an acid gas with a solvent stream to produce a partially-sweetened gas stream and a rich solvent stream including an absorbed acid gas. At least one of the co-current contacting systems is configured to send the rich solvent stream to a regenerator. The regenerator is configured to remove the absorbed acid gas from the rich solvent stream to produce a lean solvent stream. The gas processing system also includes a solvent treater configured to treat at least a portion of the lean solvent stream to produce an enhanced solvent stream, and a final co-current contacting system configured to contact the partially-sweetened gas stream with the enhanced solvent stream to produce a partially-loaded solvent stream and a final gas stream.

Apparatus and methods for controlling ammonia escape in an ammonia-based decarbonization system, wherein ammonia may be used as the desulfurization and decarbonization agent, the gas may first enter the desulfurization device for desulfurization to produce ammonium sulfate fertilizer, and the desulfurized gas may enter the decarbonization device to remove carbon dioxide in the gas, and may produce ammonium bicarbonate fertilizer. The decarbonized gas may include free ammonia, and the free ammonia in the gas may be absorbed with the acidic ammonium sulfate solution and acidic water washing liquid of ammonia-based desulfurization.

Staged absorption ammonia-based decarbonization using an absorption circulating liquid containing ammonium salts to remove carbon dioxide in a gas, and control ammonia escape while realizing efficient decarbonization through staged solution composition control and reaction condition control. Staged solution composition control may include concentration gradient control of ammonium carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium carbamate, ammonia, or combinations thereof, which may be characterized by the molar ratio of total ammonia to total CO.sub.2. Reaction condition control may include temperature control, pH control, and pressure control. The flue gas may enter the decarbonization tower, and through staged absorption, establishment of concentration, temperature, and multi-point addition of ammonia, decarbonization efficiency may be improved, decarbonization operating costs may be saved, and ammonia escape may be controlled.

A livestock shed for keeping livestock animals includes a shed building for keeping the livestock animals, having a floor which is at least partially permeable to excretory products from the livestock animals, a liquid-tight manure cellar for collecting excretory products which is situated at least partly under the floor, and an air scrubber connected to the manure cellar and configured to at least partly clean polluted manure cellar air. The air scrubber is provided directly above the manure cellar.

A method of capturing CO.sub.2 and converting the captured CO.sub.2 into useful byproducts includes providing a material including a material matrix holding an ionic liquid, exposing the material to a source of thermal energy to capture CO.sub.2 within the material, removing the material from exposure to the source of thermal energy, and washing the material with a solution to convert the captured CO.sub.2 and wash the converted, captured CO.sub.2 from the material as filtrate. Materials and systems for capturing CO.sub.2 and converting the captured CO.sub.2 into useful byproducts are also provided.

The invention relates to a process and a plant for staged separation of concomitants from a raw synthesis gas stream to produce synthesis gas and a sulfur-free naphtha product as a by-product, To remove naphtha compounds and sulfur-containing concomitants, raw synthesis gas is treated with a scrubbing medium in a prescrubbing stage and withdrawn from the prescrubbing stage, and the laden scrubbing medium is mixed with water to bring about a phase separation into a scrubbing medium-water mixture and naphtha, wherein sulfur-containing concomitants are in solution in naphtha. To remove the sulfur-containing concomitants the naphtha is heated to obtain sulfur-free naphtha as a by-product of the gas scrubbing.

A method for recovering sulfur within a gas processing system is described herein. The method includes contacting a natural gas stream including an acid gas with a solvent stream within a co-current contacting system to produce a sweetened natural gas stream and a rich solvent stream including an absorbed acid gas. The method also includes removing the absorbed acid gas from the rich solvent stream within a regenerator to produce a concentrated acid gas stream and a lean solvent stream. The method further includes recovering elemental sulfur from hydrogen sulfide (H.sub.2S) within the concentrated acid gas stream via a sulfur recovery unit.
