A subsea fluid processing system which receives a wellstream flow. The subsea fluid processing system includes a pressure control device which regulates a pressure of the wellstream flow, a gas-liquid separator unit which receives the wellstream flow downstream of the pressure control device and which provides a liquid stream and a gas stream, a first membrane separator which receives the gas stream and which provides a retentate stream and a permeate stream, a compressor which receives the permeate stream and which provides a compressed permeate stream, and a discharge cooler which receives the compressed permeate stream and which provides a cooled compressed permeate stream for injection into a subsurface reservoir. A density of the cooled compressed permeate stream is higher than a density of the compressed permeate stream.

A system for processing a material includes a pre-processing module configured to receive the material, mechanically stress the received material, and output the mechanically stressed material. The system also includes a pyrolysis module communicatively coupled to the pre-processing module and downstream of the pre-processing module. The pyrolysis module is configured to receive the mechanically stressed material from the pre-processing module and to perform a pyrolysis process on the received mechanically stressed material, thereby to produce one or more pyrolysis products.

A method of processing exhaust gas containing CO.sub.2, such as exhaust gas from a cement production plant, includes burning fuel in the combustion reactor with the O.sub.2 content of the exhaust gas being used as an oxidizing agent, controlling the combustion in the combustion reactor so that the exhaust gas from the combustion reactor contains less than 10 vol.-% of oxygen and at least 80 vol.-% of a mixture of CO and CO.sub.2, and feeding the exhaust gas from the combustion reactor into a conversion reactor, in which the CO.sub.2 and optionally the CO contained in the exhaust gas is converted into a hydrocarbon fuel.

A volume of natural gas including a volume of methane and a volume of other alkanes may be cleaned of the other alkanes using a steam reformer system to create synthesis gas.

A method for operation of an industrial plant having an energy accumulator unit for production of synthetic natural gas, a power plant unit for production of electricity, an oxygen tank, a carbon dioxide tank and a water tank. In a first operation mode the energy accumulator unit is supplied with excessed electricity from the public grid to produce synthetic natural gas, wherein the produced synthetic natural gas is discharged in a gas network, while oxygen and water which are produced together with the synthetic natural gas are stored in the oxygen tank and the water tank correspondingly. In a second operation mode gas from the gas network together with oxygen from the oxygen tank and water from the water tank are used in the power plant unit to produce electricity, which is supplied to the public grid. This way electricity production excess is efficiently accumulated for industrial or municipal use.
