Abstract
The present invention describes the use of isostructural zeolites with rho zeolitic structure in processes of adsorption and separation of the various components of natural gas.
Claims13
Process of separation or purification of hydrocarbons present in a natural gas stream and recovery using a zeolitic material isostructural to RHO zeolite characterized in that it comprises at least the following steps:
- (a) contacting the natural gas stream with the zeolitic material,
- (b) recovering the unadsorbed components.
