Apr 25, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/488172

Inventors:

Jan Bock - Bridgewater NJ
Patrick P. McCall - Matawan NJ
Max L. Robbins - South Orange NJ
Michael Siskin - Livingston NJ

Assignee:

Exxon Research and Engineering Co. - Florham Park NJ

International Classification:

C10G 104

US Classification:

208 11LE

Abstract:

Disclosed is a process for converting organic material of oil-shale to predominantly liquids. The oil-shale is first heated to a temperature from about 360. degree. C. to 475. degree. C. in an inert atmosphere. The resulting liquids and gases are collected and the residue is extracted with a microemulsion capable of extracting organic material from the heat treated oil-shale.

Abstract:

Disclosed is a process for converting organic material of oil-shale to predominantly liquids. The oil-shale is first heated to a temperature from about 360. degree. C. to 475. degree. C. in an anionic atmosphere. The resulting liquids and gases are collected and the residue is extracted with a microemulsion capable of extracting organic material from the heat treated oil-shale.

International Classification:

B01D 53/04
B01D 53/08

Abstract:

Systems and methods are provided for separation of COfrom dilute source streams. The systems and methods for the separation can include use of contactors that correspond radial flow adsorbent modules that can allow for efficient contact of CO-containing gas with adsorbent beds while also facilitating use of heat transfer fluids in the vicinity of the adsorbent beds to reduce or minimize temperature variations. In particular, the radial flow adsorbent beds can be alternated with regions of axial flow heat transfer conduits to provide thermal management. The radial flow structure for the adsorbent beds combined with axial flow conduits for heat transfer fluids can allow for sufficient temperature control to either a) reduce or minimize temperature variations within the adsorbent beds or b) facilitate performing the separation using temperature as a swing variable for controlling the working capacity of the adsorbent.

B01J 20/32
B01J 20/30
B01D 53/02

Abstract:

The disclosure generally relates to CCS sorbents, particularly for CO/HO displacement desorption process. The sorbents include an aluminum oxide support that includes alkali metal salts within the support, in the form of pseudo alkali aluminate. The sorbents also include alkali metal salt impregnated on the support. The sorbents demonstrate improved COloadings and better HO/COratios, as well as improved stability. Compositions and methods of making are disclosed.

Abstract:

The disclosure generally relates to CCS sorbents, particularly for CO/HO displacement desorption process. The sorbents include an aluminum oxide support that includes two alkali metal salts impregnated on the support. The two alkali metals include a potassium metal salts and a second alkali metal salt which is not potassium. The second metal salt disrupts poisoning effects that degrade sorbent lifetime. The sorbents demonstrate improved COloadings and better HO/COratios, as well as improved stability. Compositions and methods of making are disclosed.

Abstract:

The disclosure generally relates to CCS sorbents, particularly for CO/HO displacement desorption process. The sorbent includes an aluminum oxide support and an alkali metal salt impregnated on the support, and a silicon modification of the sorbent to reduce water uptake by the sorbent and make it more hydrophobic. The silicon modification can be an organosilyl moiety added after the initial sorbent is complete, or a silica source added to the aluminum oxide structure, typically via impregnation. The sorbents demonstrate better HO/COratios. Compositions and methods of making are disclosed.

Abstract:

The disclosure generally relates to CCS sorbents, particularly for CO/HO displacement desorption process. The sorbent includes an aluminum oxide support and an alkali metal salt impregnated on the support. The support can be prepared by creating and extruding a dough to create an extrudate, which is then drying and calcined to form the support. Calcination temperatures can be between about 120 C. and 500 C., preferably about 200 C. to about 400 C. The sorbents demonstrate improved COloadings and better HO/COratios, as well as improved stability. Compositions and methods of making are disclosed.
