Pressure nitrogen recovery

Reszka et al. [168] used ultrahltration to separate free mitoxantrone from PBCA nanoparticles. The particle suspension was passed through a cellulose nitrate membrane with a pore size of 20 nm with magnetic stirring and pressurized nitrogen. The filtrate obtained was analyzed for free drug content. Recovery of the particles is not possible with... 

Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. has been selected to supply a hydrocarbon and nitrogen recovery system for a new polyethylene manufacturing plant in Baytown, TX. The plant will be owned by Chevron Phillips Chemical Company and Solvay Polymers, Inc. The recovery system uses partial condensation in conjunction with Air Products pressure swing adsorption technology to recover hydrocarbons in the polyolefin plants, and recycle nitrogen with a purity of greater than 99%55. 

The rate of hydrolysis of DMAC is very low, but increases somewhat in the presence of acids or bases. DMAC is a stable compound, but is mildly hygroscopic and desiccation and/or dry nitrogen blanketing of storage vessels are sometimes used to reduce water pick-up. In the absence of water, acids, or bases, DMAC is stable at temperatures up to its hoiling point at atmospheric pressure. Its greater stability enables more economical recovery by distillation relative to that of other similar solvents. 

Nitrogen is used for pressure maintenance in oil and gas reservoirs for enhanced recovery. It is sometimes used as a miscible agent to reduce oil viscosity and increase recovery in deep reservoirs. Other appHcations include recovery of oil in attic formations, gas cap displacement, and a sweep gas for miscible CO2 slugs. Nitrogen competes with CO2, a more miscible gas with hydrocarbons (qv), in most of these appHcations. The production mode is typically by on-site cryogenic separation plants. In 1990, nitrogen production in enhanced recovery operations was 20 x 10 m /d (750 million SCF/d)... 

Ammonia Synthesis and Recovery. The purified synthesis gas consists of hydrogen and nitrogen in about 3 1 molar ratio, having residual inerts (CH Ar, sometimes He). The fresh make-up gas is mixed with the loop recycle and compressed to synthesis pressures. AH modern synthesis loops recycle the unreacted gases because of equiUbrium limitations to attain high overall conversions. The loop configurations differ in terms of the pressure used and the point at which ammonia is recovered. 

Design a cyclone to recover solids from a process gas stream. The anticipated particle size distribution in the inlet gas is given below. The density of the particles is 2500 kg/m3, and the gas is essentially nitrogen at 150°C. The stream volumetric flow-rate is 4000 m3/h, and the operation is at atmospheric pressure. An 80 per cent recovery of the solids is required. 

Mehra (2) [Named after the inventor] A gas separation process utilizing absorption in a solvent at moderate pressures. Developed by Advanced Extraction Technologies and applied to hydrogen recovery, nitrogen rejection, and recovery of natural gas liquids.
