Pressure Swing Adsorption Technology for Purifying Carbon Monoxide


  Carbon monoxide is widely used as a feedstock for water-gas shift hydrogen production, as a raw material for chemical synthesis, and as a reducing agent. Its primary sources include semi-water gas, water gas, regenerated off-gas from copper-based ammonia synthesis scrubbing, blast-furnace gas, basic-oxygen furnace gas, calcium-carbide furnace gas, carbon-black furnace gas, and yellow-phosphorus tail gas. When carbon monoxide is employed as a feedstock for chemical synthesis—such as the production of ethylene glycol—it must be purified to the concentration required by the synthesis process. To meet this technical and market demand, after years of research and development combined with industrial application, our company has now developed two specialized adsorbents and patented process technologies for purifying carbon monoxide, enabling highly efficient, high-yield, low-energy-consumption, and cost-effective purification of high-purity carbon monoxide from carbon-monoxide-containing mixed gases.

  Technical Features and Advantages

  µ Advanced and mature technology with a simple process flow.

  µ Utilizes a carbon monoxide-specific adsorbent developed and manufactured in-house, offering a high separation factor and excellent purification performance.

  µ The carbon monoxide-specific adsorbent is pre-reduced prior to shipment and can be directly loaded on-site for immediate use, eliminating the need for lengthy on-site reduction. This also avoids the high gas consumption associated with on-site reduction and the environmental pollution caused by chlorine-containing emissions generated during the reduction process.

  µ Employs a proprietary, patent-protected pressure swing adsorption process, offering flexible operation, safe and stable performance, and a compact footprint.

  µ High carbon monoxide yield, with low energy consumption and low operating costs for carbon monoxide purification.

  Application Fields

  Purification of carbon monoxide from semi-water gas, water gas, copper-washed regeneration gas from synthetic ammonia production, blast furnace gas, basic oxygen furnace gas, calcium carbide furnace gas, carbon black furnace gas, and yellow phosphorus tail gas.
