A Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU) includes a VRU heat exchanger and a sorbent material for the recovery of hydrocarbon vapors from the ullage of tanks. The VRU heat exchanger and sorbent material are useful in conjunction with a thermal transfer fluid to control the temperatures of the sorbent material during endothermic and exothermic reactions that occur when hydrocarbon vapors are adsorbed and desorbed, which increases performance and reduces the amount of sorbent material required to recover hydrocarbon vapors.

Porous solid amine adsorbents are prepared by bringing into contact a first (e.g., dope) solution, including a water insoluble polymer and a water-soluble amine polymer, with an aqueous solution containing a multifunctional chemical agent. The first solution can be obtained by dissolving the water insoluble polymer and the water-soluble amine polymer in a polar solvent. The adsorbents can be in the form of beads, sheets, fibers, hollow fibers, etc. and can be used in the removal of acid gases, CO.sub.2, for instance, from fluid streams.

The present technology relates generally to parallel passage contactors having active layers and methods for its use. Particularly, the present technology relates to parallel passage contactors having active layers with sorbents and/or catalysts and methods of use in sorptive gas separation and/or catalytic reactions.

A process of removing methanol, CO.sub.2, or both from a hydrocarbon stream is described. The process uses an adsorbent comprising binderless type 3A zeolite. The adsorbent has high methanol removal capacity and low olefin co-adsorption capacity, as well as low reactivity in an olefin stream. This allows reduced adsorbent loading while maintaining downstream catalyst performance and product quality. The adsorbent comprises a type 3A zeolite comprising less than 5% of a binder and an ion exchange ratio of 30% to 70%. The adsorption process can obtain an outlet methanol content of 1 ppmw or less.

Some embodiments of the disclosure correspond to, for example, a method for controlling a scrubber containing an adsorbent. The scrubber may be configured to cycle between scrubbing at least one pollutant/gas from a stream of gases with the pollutant/gas being adsorbed onto the adsorbent, and regenerating at least some of the adsorbent and thereby purging at least some of the one pollutant and/or first gas from the adsorbent via a regeneration gas flow. The method may include flowing a stream of gases through the scrubber, the scrubber including the adsorbent and adsorbing at least some of the one pollutant/gas from the stream of gases onto the adsorbent during an adsorption phase over a first time period. The method may also include purging at least a portion of the one pollutant/gas from the adsorbent during a regeneration phase over a second time period with a regeneration gas flow, and cycling therebetween.
