A system and method for processing unconditioned syngas first removes solids and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC), then removes volatile organic compounds (VOC), and then removes at least one sulfur containing compound from the syngas. Additional processing may be performed depending on such factors as the source of syngas being processed, the products, byproducts and intermediate products desired to be formed, captured or recycled and environmental considerations.

Methods and systems for producing hydrogen substantially without greenhouse gas emissions, 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; 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.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods useful for providing one or more chemical compounds in a substantially pure form. In particular, the systems and methods can be configured for separation of carbon dioxide from a process stream, such as a process stream in a hydrogen production system. As such, the present disclosure can provide systems and method for production of hydrogen and/or carbon dioxide.

According to this disclosure, there is provided a pyrolysis reaction system and a direct non-oxidative methane coupling process using the same by which it is possible to reach the selectivity for good C.sub.≤10 hydrocarbons and at the same time to inhibit coke from being generated while a good methane conversion is maintained during direct conversion of methane into C.sub.2+ hydrocarbons through non-oxidative pyrolysis.

Reactive sorber is a flow sorption column for purification of gases at pressures till hundreds of bars by way of chemical capturing of impurities by metallic powder reactant (6). The powder is continuously rubbed in the process of mechanical stirring and is sorted with the help of a filtering divider (8) into two fractions, activated particles and exhausted material (12). The latter is removed into a waste collector (11, 13), which has a level meter calibrated in the units of purity of the gas exiting from the sorber.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of carbon dioxide and ammonia for the production of urea or ammonium carbamate from residual gases in the steel and metal industries, in particular basic oxygen furnace (BOF) gas and/or blast furnace (BF) gas. The process according to the invention comprises: (a) subjecting a mixture comprising (i) basic oxygen furnace gas and/or blast furnace gas and (ii) steam to a separation-enhanced water gas shift reaction to obtain a first product gas comprising H.sub.2 and N.sub.2 and a second product gas comprising CO.sub.2; (b) subjecting the first product gas originating from step (a) to NH.sub.3 synthesis to obtain a product gas comprising NH.sub.3; and (c) optionally subjecting at least part of the CO.sub.2 originating from step (a) and at least part of the NH.sub.3 originating from step (b) to the synthesis of urea or ammonium carbamate.

The present invention concerns a process for increasing the productivity of equilibrium-restricted reactions and for increasing the productivity of a target compound. This process comprises the steps of (a) providing a reaction mixture comprising reactants; (b) subjecting the reaction mixture to the equilibrium reaction in a reactor or sequence of reactors, to obtain a reactor outlet mixture comprising the target compound and at least one of the reactants; (c) regenerating the loaded sorbent obtained in step (e), by flushing the loaded sorbent with the reactor outlet mixture originating from step (b), to obtain regenerated sorbent and an effluent comprising desorbed product; (d) separating the effluent originating from step (c) into a product stream and a reactant stream; and (e) a sorption step, wherein (i) the reactant stream originating from step (d); and/or (ii) an intermediate reaction mixture, which is obtained at the outlet of a reactor not being the last reactor of the reactor sequence, prior to being subjected to the subsequent reactor of the reactor sequence, is contacted with a sorbent selective for one or more of the products of the equilibrium reaction, to obtain a loaded sorbent and a depleted mixture.

The present invention relates to a method for recovering light olefins, which can achieve an increase in propylene production and a reduction in the basic unit of a process by feeding steam into five serially connected dehydrogenation reactors, and can diversify the product of a propane dehydrogenation reaction process from a propylene single product into propylene and ethylene by separately collecting ethane and ethylene, i.e., by-products of the propylene production process, and converting the ethane into ethylene, thereby improving the economic efficiency of the process and selectivity.
