Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods, processes, and systems for safely and reliably purifying hydrogen from a gas mixture containing hydrogen and oxygen.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing crude methanol are disclosed. A crude methanol stream, comprising methanol and paraffin wax, is produced from syngas (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen). The crude methanol stream is cooled to form a partially condensed crude methanol stream, which is further separated in a vapor-liquid separator to form a liquid stream and a gas stream. The liquid stream is further cooled in a dewaxing unit to remove paraffin wax. The dewaxing unit includes two or more cooling units arranged in parallel such that when one of the cooling units is offline for cleaning, the methanol system does not need to be shut down.

Abstract: Systems and methods for producing methanol are disclosed. A synthesis gas stream is split to form a first synthesis gas stream and a second synthesis gas stream. The first synthesis gas stream is fed into a primary methanol synthesis unit. The second synthesis gas stream is fed into a secondary methanol synthesis unit for producing methanol. The first effluent stream from the primary methanol synthesis unit and/or the second effluent stream from the secondary methanol synthesis unit are further separated to produce methanol product stream and one or more recycle streams comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and an inert gas. The one or more recycle streams are recycled to the primary methanol synthesis unit.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method comprising the steps of: a) producing a hydrocarbon stream from syngas via a Fischer-Tropsch reaction, wherein the hydrocarbon stream comprises a first C2 hydrocarbon stream comprising ethane and a first ethylene product; b) separating at least a portion of the first C2 hydrocarbon stream from the hydrocarbon stream; c) separating at least a portion of the first ethylene product from the first C2 hydrocarbon stream, thereby producing a second C2 hydrocarbon stream; d) converting at least a portion of the ethane in the second C2 hydrocarbon stream to a second ethylene product; and e) producing ethylene oxide from at least a portion of the second ethylene product.

Abstract: A reactor for hydrocarbon production that separates wax reaction products from lightweight gaseous reaction products. The reactor has a housing, a catalyst bed, a product recovery zone, and a stripping zone. The catalyst bed can be provided in multi-tubular and other fixed bed configurations. The stripping zone receives light-weight gas reaction products from the product recovery zone, while a gas outlet of the housing receives non-lightweight gaseous hydrocarbon reaction products from the product recovery zone. A wax outlet of the housing receives wax products from the product recovery zone.
