System and method for enhanced removal of CO 2 from a mixed gas stream
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A gas processing system comprising:
- an absorber including a vessel configured to receive a mixed gas stream containing carbon dioxide and to contact the mixed gas stream with a solvent;
wherein the absorber comprises packing materials disposed in the vessel, the packing material including a catalyst disposed thereon for the catalyst to promote the capture of carbon dioxide from within the mixed gas stream to make the solvent rich in carbon dioxide.

19. A mixed gas processing system comprising:
-
an absorber including a first vessel configured to receive a mixed gas stream containing carbon dioxide and to contact the mixed gas stream with a solvent, the absorber comprising packing materials disposed in the first vessel to provide a solvent stream rich in carbon dioxide; and a regenerator including a second vessel configured to receive the solvent stream rich in carbon dioxide;
whereby the regenerator comprises packing materials disposed in the second vessel to provide a solvent stream lean in carbon dioxide to the absorber and provide a carbon dioxide rich stream;wherein at least one of the packing materials of the absorber and the packing materials of the regenerator includes a catalyst disposed thereon to promote the release of carbon dioxide within the mixed gas stream and solvent stream rich in carbon dioxide, respectively. - View Dependent Claims (20)
