  • Patent number: 8357344
    Abstract: The gaseous effluent to be treated is contacted in column C1 with an absorbent solution selected for its property of forming two separable phases when it is heated. The regenerated absorbent solution is separated into two phases in drum B1; a fraction rich in water and a fraction rich in reactive compounds. Separation allows to optimize the operations performed on the regenerated absorbent solution. On the one hand, separation allows to carry out vaporization, through reboiler R1, of a fraction of the absorbent solution, preferably containing a limited reactive compound concentration in relation to the absorbent solution, thus limiting their degradation. On the other hand, separation of the phases allows to reduce the amount of solution to be treated in order to remove the non-regeneratable salts and thus to reduce the costs linked with their elimination. Finally, separation allows to eliminate the degradation products by carrying out a specific and suitable purification for each phase.

  • Publication number: 20130015406
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for deacidizing a gas feed comprising acid compounds. The gas feed is contacted in C1 with an absorbent solution so as to obtain a gaseous effluent depleted in acid compounds and an absorbent solution laden with acid compounds, the absorbent solution being selected for its property of forming two liquid phases when heated. A gaseous effluent is then released from the absorbent solution laden with acid compounds. At least part of the absorbent solution laden with acid compounds is thermally regenerated and at least a fraction of the regenerated absorbent solution is separated into a water-enriched liquid phase and a liquid phase enriched in reactive compounds. The water-enriched liquid phase is used to wash the gaseous effluent released from the absorbent solution enriched in acid compounds in order to obtain a gaseous effluent depleted in reactive compounds.

  • Publication number: 20110185901
    Abstract: The invention relates to the removal of acid compounds from a gaseous effluent in an absorption method using an aqueous solution of N,N,N?,N?-tetramethylhexane-1,6-diamine formulated with a particular primary or secondary amine, allowing to obtain a single-phase absorbent solution under the absorption conditions of acid gases such as CO2. The invention is advantageously applied to the treatment of natural gas and of gas of industrial origin.

  • Publication number: 20100132551
    Abstract: The gaseous effluent to be treated is contacted in C1 with an absorbent solution selected for its property of forming two separable phases when it has absorbed an amount of acid compounds and when it is heated. According to the invention, the absorbent solution is regenerated in at least two stages in regeneration zones Z1 and Z2. At the end of the first regeneration stage in Z1, at least part of the partly regenerated absorbent solution is separated into two fractions in B1: a fraction rich in acid compounds and a fraction depleted in acid compounds. Fraction 10 rich in acid compounds is sent to the second regeneration stage in Z2. The fraction depleted in acid compounds and regenerated absorbent solution 6 from the second regeneration stage are recycled to absorption column C1. The method can be applied to combustion fumes decarbonation and to natural gas or synthesis gas deacidizing.

  • Publication number: 20100104490
    Abstract: The gaseous effluent to be treated is contacted in C1 with an absorbent solution selected for its property of forming two separable phases when it has absorbed an amount of acid compounds and when it is heated. The absorbent solution laden with acid compounds is then heated in E1 and E3 so as to separate two fractions in BS1: a first absorbent solution fraction depleted in acid compounds and a second absorbent solution fraction enriched in acid compounds. The second fraction is regenerated in C2 so as to release part of the acid compounds, and the first absorbent solution fraction and the regenerated absorbent solution are recycled as absorbent solution. According to the invention, an absorbent solution portion circulating in C1 is cooled in E2 in order to prevent demixing of the solution in column C1.
