Abstract:
Methods are provided for the selective removal of CO from a multicomponent gaseous stream to provide a CO depleted gaseous stream having at least a reduction, e. g. 30 to 90%, in the concentration of CO relative to the untreated multicomponent gaseous stream. In practicing the subject methods, the multicomponent gaseous stream is contacted with an aqueous fluid, e. g. CO nucleated water, under conditions of selective CO clathrate formation to produce a CO clathrate slurry and CO depleted gaseous stream. A feature of the subject invention is that a CO hydrate promoter is employed, where the CO hydrate promoter is included in the multicomponent gaseous stream and/or the aqueous fluid. The CO hydrate promoter serves to reduce the minimum CO partial pressure required for hydrate formation as compared to a control. The subject methods find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to selectively remove CO from a multicomponent gaseous stream.
Methods And Systems For Selectively Separating Co2 From A Multicomponent Gaseous Stream
Methods are provided for the selective removal of CO from a multicomponent gaseous stream to provide a CO depleted gaseous stream. In practicing the subject methods, an initial multicomponent gaseous stream that includes a gaseous CO hydrate promoter is contacted with an aqueous fluid, e. g. , CO nucleated water, in a hydrate formation reactor under conditions of selective CO clathrate formation to produce a CO clathrate slurry and CO depleted gaseous stream. Also provided are systems that find use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to selectively remove CO from a multicomponent gaseous stream.
Methods And Systems For Selectively Separating Cofrom A Multicomponent Gaseous Stream To Produce A High Pressure Coproduct
Methods are provided for the selective removal of COfrom a multicomponent gaseous stream to provide a COdepleted gaseous stream. In practicing the subject methods, an initial multicomponent gaseous stream is contacted with an aqueous fluid under conditions of selective COclathrate formation to produce a COclathrate slurry and COdepleted gaseous stream. A feature of the subject methods is that the COclathrate slurry is then compressed to high pressure to produce a high-pressure COproduct. Also provided are systems that find use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to selectively remove COfrom a multicomponent gaseous stream.
Methods And Systems For Selectively Separating Co2 From An Oxygen Combustion Gaseous Stream
Methods are provided for the selective multi-stage removal of COfrom an oxygen combustion flue gas stream to provide a COdepleted gaseous stream. In practicing the subject methods, an initial flue gas stream is contacted with an aqueous fluid under conditions of COhydrate formation to produce a COhydrate slurry and COdepleted gaseous stream. A feature of the subject methods is that the COhydrate slurry is separated from the COdepleted gaseous stream and then compressed to high pressure to produce a high-pressure COproduct. A further feature is that the CO-depleted gaseous stream is sent to at least one additional hydrate reactor for further removal of CO. Also provided are systems that find use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to remove COselectively from an oxygen combustion flue gas stream
Methods And Systems For Selectively Separating Co2 From A Multi-Component Gaseous Stream
The present invention provides for methods for selectively removing COfrom a multi-component gaseous stream to provide a COdepleted gaseous stream. In practicing the subject methods, an initial multi-component gaseous stream is contacted with an aqueous fluid under high-pressure COhydrate-formation reaction conditions to produce a mixture of a COhydrate slurry and a COdepleted gaseous stream. Aspects of the subject methods is that the mixture of the COhydrate slurry and the COdepleted gaseous stream is transferred directly to a second step hydrate formation reactor in a one-stage, two-step process for further removal of CO. Also provided are systems that find use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to selectively remove COfrom a multi-component gaseous stream.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an open ocean farm structure for attachment of macroalgal plants. The farm structure is made up of linear elements connected with nodes to form a three dimensional truss. The linear elements are composed of tubes containing solid rods which are screw connected to the nodes. The ends of the tubes abut the nodes so that screwing the rods into the nodes puts the tubes in compression. The truss structure thus formed is strong and flexible. Because the truss structure is made of tubes having minimal cross-sectional area, the structure is relatively transparent to the forces of wave motion.
System For Selectively Separating Co2 From A Multicomponent Gaseous Stream
Systems are provided for the selective removal of CO. sub. 2 from a multicomponent gaseous stream to provide a CO. sub. 2 depleted gaseous stream having at least a reduction in the concentration of CO. sub. 2 relative to the untreated multicomponent gaseous stream. In the subject systems, the multicomponent gaseous stream is contacted with CO. sub. 2 nucleated water under conditions of selective CO. sub. 2 clathrate formation, where the CO. sub. 2 nucleated water serves as liquid solvent to produce a CO. sub. 2 clathrate slurry and CO. sub. 2 depleted gaseous stream. In a preferred embodiment, the CO. sub. 2 clathrate slurry is then decomposed to produce CO. sub. 2 gas and nucleated water. The subject systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to selectively remove CO. sub. 2 from a multicomponent gaseous stream, including chemical feedstock processing applications and air emissions control applications.
