Abstract: A gas separation process that utilizes ejector recycle with a membrane separation step in combination with a second separation step. The second separation step may be a second membrane separation, or may involve a different type of separation process. At least a portion of the non-product (i.e. residue) stream withdrawn from the second separation step is directed back to the ejector to form a processing loop. The ejector drives the gas flow in the loop and recycles the non-product stream to the first separation step.

Abstract: A circuit for a front-end tunable filter of a communication and broadcast receiver and a tuning method thereof are described herein. In one aspect, the circuit of the tunable filter may be independent of the signal reception link of the receiver. The pre-filter (104) includes a variable capacitance (146) which is adjusted by a tuning signal (160). A negative resistance element (144) and the pre-filter (104) may form an oscillator. The negative resistance element (144) is controlled by an amplitude control signal (162) outputted from an oscillation amplitude control circuit (142). The oscillation amplitude control circuit (142) stabilizes the amplitude of a radio frequency signal (130) in a preset range. An oscillation frequency control circuit (140) stabilizes the frequency of the signal (130) in a preset frequency range by a tuning signal (160). The tuning is completed until both of the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillation signal meet the preset ranges.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for the production of hydrogen by autothermal reforming of natural gas, with simultaneous recovery of carbon dioxide using carbon dioxide-selective membrane separation. Residual gas from the hydrogen and carbon dioxide recovery is recycled back to the autothermal reformer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a methanol production process that includes at least two membrane separation steps. Using the process of the invention, the efficiency of methanol production from syngas is increased by reducing the compression requirements of the process and/or improving the methanol product yield. As an additional advantage, the first membrane separation step generates a hydrogen-rich stream which can be sent for other uses. An additional benefit is that the process of the invention may debottleneck existing methanol plants if more syngas or carbon dioxide is available, allowing for feed of imported carbon dioxide into the synthesis loop. This is a way of sequestering carbon dioxide.

Abstract: A membrane-based gas separation process for treating gas streams that contain methane in low concentrations. The invention involves flowing the stream to be treated across the feed side of a membrane and flowing a sweep gas stream, usually air, across the permeate side. Carbon dioxide permeates the membrane preferentially and is picked up in the sweep air stream on the permeate side; oxygen permeates in the other direction and is picked up in the methane-containing stream. The resulting residue stream is enriched in methane as well as oxygen and has an EMC value enabling it to be either flared or combusted by mixing with ordinary air.
