Process And System For Separating Heavy And Light Components Contained In A Vapor Mixture
Process And System For Separating Heavy And Light Components Contained In A Vapor Mixture
US Patent:
2012003, Feb 9, 2012
Filed:
Aug 4, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/198269
Inventors:
Rae Lynn Spencer - Cypress TX, US
Gary W. LUCE - Spring TX, US
John A. Spencer - Cypress TX, US
Gary W. LUCE - Spring TX, US
John A. Spencer - Cypress TX, US
Assignee:
TERRABON MIX-ALCO, LLC - Houston TX
International Classification:
B01D 3/00
US Classification:
203 25
Abstract:
Herein disclosed is a method of separating heavy and light components from a vapor mixture. The method comprises a. distilling the vapor mixture into a first vapor phase and a first liquid phase; and b. condensing at least a portion of the first vapor phase into a second liquid phase and a second vapor phase; wherein the distilling utilizes the internal energy of the vapor mixture. In an embodiment, the method further comprises c. utilizing at least a portion of the first liquid phase to absorb at least a portion of the second vapor phase. In some cases, the method further comprises cooling the at least a portion of the first liquid phase prior to utilizing it to absorb the at least a portion of the second vapor phase.

International Classification:
C01G 3/00
US Classification:
585240
Abstract:
A method of producing hydrocarbons from biomass that includes converting at least a portion of the biomass into a first product having at least one of a carboxylic acid, a ketone, an ammonium carboxylate salt, and combinations thereof; converting at least a portion of the first product into an alcohol; reacting at least some of the alcohol in an oligomerization reactor as part of a process that produces an oligomerization product.

International Classification:
C07C 45/54
US Classification:
568397
Abstract:
Methods for producing organic products that may include the steps of providing a feed stream comprising a first organic salt and a second organic salt to a reactor; reacting the feed stream at a first temperature to convert at least some of the first organic salt to the organic products, wherein reacting the feed stream results in a first product stream comprising the organic products and second organic salt; separating at least a portion of the organic products from the first product stream resulting in a first reduced product stream comprising second organic salt; and reacting the first reduced product stream at a second temperature to convert the second organic salt to a second organic products.
