  • Patent number: 11857912
    Abstract: A process for producing a purified gas stream having impurities, using a production unit for producing a gas stream and a storage reservoir. The process includes producing a first gas stream by means of the production unit. Storing at least a portion of the first gas stream in the storage reservoir. Extracting, from the storage reservoir, a second gas stream corresponding to at least one portion of the first stream polluted by the impurities. Purifying the second gas stream by transfer of at least one portion of the impurities contained in the second gas stream into the first gas stream. And recovery of the purified gas stream at the output of the purification.

  • Publication number: 20220219134
    Abstract: Disclosed is a packing made up of a stack of plates, having been shaped to form corrugations in the plate and assembled to form a cross-corrugated packing block for a mass and/or heat transfer application, wherein the material of the packing plates is an open-pore metal foam, and in that the specific surface area of the packing is greater than 500 m2/m3 and in that the thickness (e) of the plate is less than 2 mm before the shaping operation.

  • Publication number: 20220170701
    Abstract: A direct heat exchange and material transfer apparatus having a plurality of columns, a single stack of at least two solid metal plates of rectangular section, the plates being substantially all of the same shape and dimensions and parallel to a determined direction, each plate being separated from the adjacent plate, at least in a first direct heat exchange and material transfer zone of the apparatus, by a group of hollow metal columns that are aligned and have a section which is polygonal and has at least two parallel surfaces, the channels being parallel to the determined direction and contiguous with one another, the columns of each group each being in contact with the two metal plates on either side of the group, at least some of the columns of a group containing a material and heat exchange means.

  • Publication number: 20210238635
    Abstract: A plant for producing at least partially desulfurized biogas, comprising a biomass digester and/or post-digester, the digester and/or post-digester comprising: a chamber (1) comprising the biomass (2) and the gas space (3), and a system (6) for injecting an oxidizing gas into the gas space, wherein the injection system comprises a tubular means (4) comprising a T-shaped portion the vertical bar of which is placed in the axis of symmetry of the chamber and the horizontal bar of which has micro-injectors (5).

  • Publication number: 20210179508
    Abstract: Plant for producing at least partially desulfurized biogas, comprising a biomass digester and/or post-digester, the digester and/or post-digester comprising: a chamber (1) in which an anaerobic digestion of the biomass takes place, leading to the production of biogas (2) and of digestate (3), a means for introducing an oxidizing gas, a desulfurization net (4) placed horizontally and fastened in the upper part of the chamber, and ropes (5) attached to said desulfurization net and which hang down to the biogas-digestate interface.
