Abstract
338,719. Standard Oil Development Co., (Assignees of Lewis, W. K.). Nov. 12, 1928, [Convention date]. Gases, separating by absorption. - Gaseous mixtures, more especially of hydrogen and hydrocarbons, are separated into two fractions by contacting the mixture under high pressure, preferably above 20 atmospheres, with a solid material having a preferential adsorption for one component under pressure, such as activated charcoal, bone charcoal &c. The unadsorbed gas is withdrawn, and the adsorbed gas is then removed by reduction of pressure, and heat if necessary, and separately collected. In an apparatus described, the gas mixture enters at 1, is compressed and cooled and enters a pipe 4, leading through valves 8, 9 to adsorption chambers 10, 11, which may be fitted with heating or cooling coils 12, and are used alternately. When using chamber 10, the gas passes out-through a valve 18 and pipe 17, and is richer in hydrogen than the original gas. On saturation of the adsorbent material, the incoming gas is diverted through chamber 11. Valves 35 and 28 are opened, and hydrocarbon gas from cylinder 30 is admitted to chamber 10 in order to flush it and to maintain the pressure, the outflowing gas being conducted back by pipe 27 for retreatment. This outflowing gas passes through a gas balance B until no hydrogen remains in the mixture, when the above valves are closed, and the pressure slowly released by valve 25. A part of the outflowing gas is used to recharge cylinder 30 and the remainder passes out through a pipe 20 to storage. More than two absorption chambers may be used in series.
