Abstract
Improved method for recovering hydrogen and carbon monoxide from hydrocarbon conversion processes are disclosed. A monolith catalyst reactor means is utilized in treating the waste gas stream from the hydrocarbon conversion process to assist in recovering hydrogen and carbon monoxide from the waste gas stream. The present invention also provides a method for improving the yield of hydrogen and carbon monoxide from a hydrocarbon conversion process utilizing a monolith catalyst reactor means.
Claims35
An improved method for recovering hydrogen and carbon monoxide from the waste gas stream from a pressure swing adsorption process in a hydrocarbon conversion process, the improvement comprising passing said waste gas stream and an oxygen-containing gas stream through a monolith catalyst reactor, and recovering from said monolith catalyst reactor hydrogen and carbon monoxide.
A method for improving the yield of hydrogen and carbon monoxide from a hydrocarbon conversion process comprising contacting the waste gas stream from said hydrocarbon conversion process and an oxygen-containing gas stream with a monolith catalyst reactor, and recovering from said monolith catalyst reactor hvdroaen and carbon monoxide.
A system for recovering hydrogen and carbon monoxide from a pressure swing adsorption waste gas stream in a hydrocarbon conversion process comprising passing said waste gas stream and an oxygen-containing gas stream through monolith catalyst reactor means.
