  • Publication number: 20120020859
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for capturing carbon oxides, in particular for recovering carbon oxides from an industrial facility, and specifically to a method for capturing CO2 contained in a gas flow with a view to storing said CO2, said method including placing said gas flow in contact with a solvent including an organometallic compound, such that said solvent captures said carbon oxides to form an enriched solvent. The present invention relates in particular to the use of said capture method in post-combustion or pre-combustion processes.

  • Publication number: 20050194291
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for sulphurizing catalysts for hydrotreating of hydrocarbon feedstocks. The invention is characterised in that it consists in sulphurizing the catalyst in two steps: the first step consisting in sulphurization with tertiary mercaptan in the absence of hydrogen, and the second step, carried out consecutively in the same reactor, consisting of sulphurization with another sulphurizing agent in the presence of hydrogen. The catalysts thus sulphurized prove to be more active than those sulphurized by only the second step.
