  • Membrane separation of carbon dioxide from natural gas with energy recovery
    Patent number: 10060348
    Abstract: Carbon dioxide is separated from natural gas using a single stage membrane separation system to produce a retentate gas that typically meets the specification for pipeline distribution of natural gas, and a permeate gas comprising methane that is combusted to generate power and/or heat, e.g. for use in providing the utility requirements of the process itself or for export to an integrated process. Advantages include an overall reduction in power consumption and improvement in process efficiency.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2014
    Date of Patent: August 28, 2018
    Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.
    Inventors: Jason Michael Ploeger, John Eugene Palamara, Jack Theodore Kindt
