The carbon dioxide is distilled as an over head product in stream 482 subsequently compressed and condensed to combine with the carbon dioxide product from the COZ/Light Ends Separator Tower 495 in stream 450 as the total liquid carbon dioxide product in stream 487.

Consequently, the car bon dioxide isdissolved or absorbed inthe “lean” meth anol, The separated liquid leaves the bottom of the Methanol Absorber 496 as a liquid at temperatures of 60 ther at this level of temperature and above, all of the 10° to 20° F. above the inlet “lean” methanol. Hydrogen sul?de is also very soluble in methanol and if any is present itwill be dissolved in the methanol. The “rich” methanol in stream 460 is partially cross-exchanged withthe“lean”methanolinstream478torecoverthe65 cryogenic energy and warm the “rich” methanol. The warmed “rich” methanol from the Methanol Absorber 496 in stream 499 isfed to the COy/Methanol materials of construction for the distillation and absorp tion system may be carbon steel, which reduces the plant cost, Also, the methanol is a polar molecule used to absorb the carbon dioxide and hydrogen sul?de from theethane-methane-and-lightercomponents.Themeth anol serves to invert the relative volatility of carbon dioxide to ethane and maintain itwell above one. Based on this fact, the methanol not only prevents the poten carbon dioxide will take place in the distillation and absorptionseparationsystemsdescribedhereinbecause the minimum temperature required is —40° E. which is well above the freezing point of carbon dioxide.

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
