Abstract: A process for the stepwise separation of accompanying gases from a raw synthesis gas stream by a liquid absorbent countercurrently guided through all process steps and circulated via regeneration plants, wherein either the accompanying gases H2S, COS and CO2 are separated in a common absorption step or, in one of the selective absorption steps chiefly H2S and COS are separated and in the next step in flow direction of the gas chiefly CO2 is separated, and in the last step a separation of accompanying gas residues (fine wash) is effected, wherein before the separation of H2S and COS an absorption step chiefly for the separation of aromatics and subsequently an absorption step chiefly for the separation of methyl mercaptan is carried out.

Abstract: Process for the purification and separation of a synthesis gas stream containing hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in which synthesis gas is purified in a purification unit (W) involving a methanol washing step to remove carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide depleted synthesis gas is purified by adsorption (P) to produce a purified synthesis gas stream and the purified gas stream is sent to a cryogenic separation unit (C) where it is cooled and separated by cryogenic separation in a column of a column system, at least one stream (13) enriched in carbon monoxide is removed from a column of the column system, warmed and divided in two, one part of the stream being removed from the cryogenic separation unit as a first stream, the other part of the stream forming a second stream (13B, 15B) and being sent to the purification unit wherein it is warmed and the warmed second stream is mixed with the first stream.

Abstract: From the CO2-containing stream of process gas obtained in a process for the treatment of a CO2-containing stream of process gas, which is obtained in the production of pure synthesis gas from raw gas in the partial oxidation of heavy oils, petroleum coke or wastes, or in the gasification of coal, or when processing natural gas or accompanying natural gas, CO2 is removed physisorptively or chemisorptively, and the solvent loaded with CO2 is expanded to a lower pressure for the desorption of CO2. In order to generate CO2 as pure as possible, the contaminated CO2 is condensed to at least 60 bar[a] or below its critical temperature to at least 70 bar[a], and the impurities contained in the liquid CO2 are removed by stripping with gaseous CO2 guided in counterflow.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system unit for desorbing carbon dioxide and other impurities from highly pressurized methanol. Said system unit comprises at least one or more expansion vessels arranged in succession, at least one heat exchanger, and at least one liquid/gas separator. The inventive system unit contains: a) a line (1) through which the intensely cooled methanol leaving expansion vessel (C) is introduced into the heat exchanger (E) from underneath, and; b) a line (2), though which the heated methanol is drawn out of the heat exchanger (E) from the top, and which serves to connect said heat exchanger to a liquid/gas separator inside of which the remaining carbon dioxide still contained in the methanol is desorbed and separated out to the greatest possible extent. This system unit enables the cold due to evaporation, said cold resulting during the desorption of carbon dioxide, to be obtained inside a heat exchanger and constitutes an important cold energy source for carrying out absorption.

Abstract: A methanol/water scrubbing solution containing colloidal metal sulfides formed from metal carbonyls and resulting from the scrubbing of industrial gases, such as synthesis gas, is subjected to agglomeration of the metal sulfides before the scrubbing solution to be separated enters the separating column which separates the methanol from the water containing precipitated metal sulfides. The agglomeration is carried out in a precipitation vessel and the scrubbing liquid is diluted before it enters the precipitation vessel. The result is minimal encrustation of the trays or other parts of the cleaning plant for the scrubbing solution.
