Abstract: A process and plant for producing a high purity CO2 product, comprising: providing a CO2-rich stream containing hydrocarbons, hydrogen and/or CO, combining it with a stream rich in methane (CH4), and mixing it with oxygen, thereby forming a CO2/O2- mixture; subjecting the CO2/O2- mixture to a catalytic oxidation step, thereby producing a purified stream having a higher CO2 and/or H2O concentration; removing H2O from said purified stream, for producing said high purity CO2 product stream. The CO2-rich stream is for instance derived from the CO2-removal section of a plant for producing hydrogen.

Abstract: A method and system for temperature control in catalytic oxidation of hazardous compounds to protect the catalytic system against thermal overload by means of injecting adsorbing ammonia reagent, in order to reduce the exothermic reaction from oxidation and the resulting temperature rise.
