A ten-bed VPSA process with silica gel adsorbent is firstly designed to pre-separate and capture 74.57% CO_(2) with a CO_(2) purity of 98.35% from UCG syngas(CH_(4)/CO/CO_(2)/H_(2)/N_(2)= 30.77%/6.15%/44.10%/18.46%/0.52%, mole fraction, from Shaar Lake Mine Field,Xinjiang Province, China) with a feed pressure of 3.5 MPa. Subsequently, the Rectisol process is constructed to furtherly remove and capture the residual CO_(2)remained in light product gas from the VPSA process using cryogenic methanol(233.15 K, 100%(mass)) as absorbent. A final purified gas with CO_(2) concentration lower than 3% and a regenerated CO_(2) product with CO_(2) purity higher than 95% were achieved by using the Rectisol process. Comparisons indicate that the energy consumption is deceased from 2.143 MJ·kg^(-1) of the single Rectisol process to 1.008 MJ·kg^(-1) of the integrated VPSA & Rectisol process, which demonstrated that the deployed VPSA was an energy conservation process for CO_(2) capture from UCG syngas. Additionally, the high-value gas(e.g., CH_(4)) loss can be decreased and the effects of key operating parameters on the process performances were detailed.展开更多

Seeded-gel approach is simpler than the normal secondary-growth one since adding seeds in the gel is simpler than seeding on the support surface. The synthesis time was greatly reduced from 3.0 to 1.0 d after synthesis modification of gel aging and seed sizes. Low temperature ozone calcination was used for the removal of the organic structural directing agent. The best SSZ-13 membrane displayed CO_(2)permeances of 1.3 × 10^(-6) and 1.5 × 10^(-6) mol·m^(-2)·s^(-1)·Pa^(-1) and CO_(2)/CH_(4) and CO_(2)/N_(2) selectivities of 125 and 27 for equimolar CO_(2)/CH_(4) and CO_(2)/N2mixtures at 0.2 MPa pressure drop and 298 K, respectively. Separation performance of the membrane in the two binary mixtures is higher than that of most zeolite membranes. Three SSZ-13 membranes were reproducibly prepared on tubular supports by seeded-gel approach and the standard deviation ratios of CO_(2) permeance and CO_(2)/CH_(4) selectivity are 12.5% and 7%, respectively. It suggests that this new synthesis approach is creditable. The effects of temperature and pressure on separation performance of the thin SSZ-13 membranes were studied in the two binary mixtures. The tubular SSZ-13 membranes displayed great potentials for CO_(2) capture from natural gas, biogas and flue gas.展开更多
