Abstract
An adsorptive gas separation process and system is provided for separating at least a first component from a multi-component fluid mixture, or specifically for separating carbon dioxide from a combustion gas stream. The adsorptive gas separation process comprises an adsorbing step, a first regenerating step, an optional second regenerating step and an optional conditioning step.
Claims12
An adsorptive gas separation process for separating at least a portion of a multi-component fluid mixture into one or more components, said adsorptive gas separation process comprising:
- a. admitting said multi-component fluid mixture as a feed stream into at least one contactor;
- adsorbing at least a portion of a first component of said feed stream on at least one adsorbent material in said at least one contactor;
- recovering a first product stream further comprising at least a second component and depleted in said first component relative to said feed stream from said at least one contactor;
- b. admitting a first regeneration stream further comprising at least a third component into said at least one contactor;
- desorbing at least a portion of said first component adsorbed on said at least one adsorbent material in said at least one contactor;
- recovering a second product stream enriched in said first component relative to said feed stream from said at least one contactor;
- c. actively controlling a partial pressure of a second regeneration stream;
- and
- d. admitting said second regeneration stream into said at least one contactor;
- desorbing at least a portion of said third component adsorbed on said at least one adsorbent material in said at least one contactor, and recovering a third product stream from said at least one contactor.
