ORGANIC SOLID WASTE TO METHANE FUEL GENERATION FOR SPACECRAFT
A system includes an oxidative combustion reactor configured to receive solid organic waste and O2, and to output a combined stream of H2O and CO2. A separator is configured to receive the combined stream of H2O and CO2 from the combustion reactor and to separately output a stream of CO2 and a stream of H2O. A Sabatier reactor is operatively connected to receive CO2 from the separator and to receive H2 from an H2 source, and to output gaseous CH4.
Apparatus and System for Swing Adsorption Processes
Provided are apparatus and systems for performing a swing adsorption process. This swing adsorption process may involve performing the swing adsorption process in a swing adsorption process skid. The process may be utilized for swing adsorption processes, such as TSA and/or PSA, which are utilized to remove one or more contaminants from a gaseous feed stream.
Pelleting device
A pelleting device, designed as a field-guided stalk-crop harvesting machine for connection to a tractor and a chopper, wherein a diesel engine drives a current generator and an annular die press, configured such that chopped stalk material passes into a drying chamber and is propelled via a screw conveyor into the die press, wherein the annular die of the die press is mounted in ring bearings on a base, on which a pair of pivot levers for a pan grinder roller is also hinged.
System and method for providing separation of natural gas from oil and gas well fluids
A system for heating water for an oil and gas well treatment system utilizing raw natural gas from an oil and gas well. The system includes a separation assembly to remove liquids from the raw natural gas, wherein at least a portion of heated water from a frac water heater is passed through the separation assembly to prevent freezing therein.
CONVERSION OF CARBON DIOXIDE FROM VEHICLE EXHAUST TO LIQUID FUELS AND FUEL ADDITIVES
Embodiments of a system for on-site conversion of carbon dioxide from vehicle exhaust to liquid fuels and fuel additives comprise a carbon dioxide collection system, an external power source, an electrolyzer, and a carbon dioxide conversion system. The carbon dioxide collection system interfaces with a mobile carbon dioxide capture system onboard a vehicle to transfer CO.sub.2 captured from vehicle exhaust to a vessel in the carbon dioxide collection system. The external power source provides the energy required for operation of the carbon dioxide conversion system and the electrolyzer. The electrolyzer separates a water feed into hydrogen and oxygen to generate a hydrogen feed and an oxygen feed. The carbon dioxide conversion system converts the CO.sub.2 collected from the exhaust of the vehicles and delivered to the carbon dioxide collection system and the hydrogen feed from the electrolyzer into useful liquid fuels and fuel additives through electrochemical reduction.
Natural-gas purification apparatus
A natural-gas purification apparatus includes: a plurality of carbon-dioxide separation units that are arranged in series and separate carbon dioxide, through carbon-dioxide separation membranes, from natural gas pressurized by a compressor, cooled by a cooling unit to liquefy and separate a high-boiling-point hydrocarbon component, and heated by a heating unit; a gas supply pipe that is provided between the plurality of carbon-dioxide separation units through on-off valves and that supplies the natural gas; a compressor that is provided to the gas supply pipe; a cooling unit that liquefies and separates a high-boiling-point hydrocarbon component by cooling the natural gas pressurized by this compressor; and a heating unit that heats the natural gas after the separation of the high-boiling-point hydrocarbon component by this cooling unit.
