- co-adsorption of methane accompanying CO 2 adsorption cannot be ignored, and siloxane and hydrogen sulfide used for pretreatment
- the adsorption performance of high-silica zeolite for adsorbing methyl mercaptan is gradually deteriorated by long-term use due to precipitation of solid sulfur caused by hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan, and precipitation of silica caused by siloxane.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method for recovering and purifying methane from biofermented gas using an adsorbent that overcomes the problems of the prior art described above.

- the acid-treated silica gel adsorbent used for adsorbing moisture and siloxane can be obtained by treating commercially available silica gel with an acid aqueous solution.
- Silica gel reacts with hydroxyl groups and siloxanes, hydrolyzing siloxanes and precipitating silicic acid at the adsorption active sites, leading to a decrease in adsorption performance.
- the silica gel is subjected to an acid treatment, the hydroxyl group is protonated and the hydrolysis of the siloxane is remarkably suppressed. For this reason, the adsorption of siloxane becomes reversible, and smooth adsorption-desorption proceeds.
- the acid used to treat the silica gel is not particularly limited, and any acid may be used, but it is common to use sulfuric acid, nitric acid, etc., which are easily available. Further, the acid concentration of the acid aqueous solution is not particularly limited, and may be any concentration.
- the temperature and time for treating the silica gel with the aqueous acid solution are not particularly limited, and any temperature may be used, but the higher the temperature, the shorter the treatment time.
- the adsorbent used for adsorbing hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan is silicalite or an adsorbed silicalite adsorbent.
- a commercially available silicalite may be used.
- Silicalite that has been subjected to acid treatment uses hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid, etc. as the acid, and the acid is added to pure or deionized water to prepare an aqueous solution with a pH of about 0.5-6. Suspends silicalite in an aqueous solution and stirs for about 10 minutes to 3 hours to allow the silicalite to carry an acid.
- Hydrolysis proceeds by the reaction of the hydroxyl group with H 2 S and methyl mercaptan, and elemental sulfur is deposited at the adsorption active site, leading to a decrease in adsorption performance.
- silicalite is used here, precipitation of elemental sulfur is suppressed because the hydroxyl group concentration on the adsorbent surface is low.
- the silicalite is subjected to an acid treatment, the remaining hydroxyl group is protonated and the precipitation of elemental sulfur is remarkably suppressed. For this reason, the adsorption of H 2 S and methyl mercaptan becomes reversible, and smooth adsorption / desorption proceeds. You may mix and use the silicalite which performed the silicalite and the acid treatment.

- HCl was added to pure water to prepare HCl solutions of pH 1 and pH 4, and the silica gel was suspended in these aqueous solutions and stirred for 30 minutes.
- HCl-treated silica gel shows durability against siloxane removal during long-time operation compared to untreated silica gel. This is also confirmed from the fact that the amount of silica deposited on the adsorbent after operation for 720 hours is suppressed compared to untreated silica gel.
- those having a pH of 1 showed more excellent durability, and it was evaluated that the addition of about 2 g was the most optimal for the phosphoric acid dope and the boric acid dope.
- the methane concentration at the outlet of the adsorption tower increases, but the methane recovery rate decreases. Therefore, when the flow rate is reduced to about 80 m 3 N / h, the methane concentration increases to 96 vol%, while when the raw material flow rate is increased to 150 m 3 N / h, the methane recovery rate increases to 95%.
- the product methane concentration increases and reaches 98 vol% at 8 m 3 N / h.
- the methane recovery rate is reduced to 86%.
- the product methane purge amount is reduced to 2 m 3 N / h, the product methane concentration decreases to 84%. Since the recovery rate increases to 94%, this condition may be adopted when a high methane concentration is not required.
- the product methane concentration increases to 94 vol%, but the product methane recovery rate remains at 72%.
- the uniform pressure between the columns introduced so far is adopted, the product methane concentration is slightly reduced to 92 vol%, but the recovery rate is very high at 92%. It can be understood that the uniform pressure between the columns can be easily transferred from the pressure change of adsorption-desorption-adsorption, and is very effective from the viewpoint of improving the recovery rate and smooth PSA operation.
- Example 4 In the first embodiment, the product adsorption of methane was performed in the “adsorption process” by means of pressure equalization / pressure increase / adsorption between the columns and in the “regeneration process” by pressure equalization / pressure reduction / counterflow purge between the columns. Since product methane is used as the purge gas in the countercurrent purge, the loss of product methane cannot be ignored.
- the “regeneration process” when the adsorption tower after the adsorption process is purged with a desorption gas mainly composed of CO 2 from the front of the tower, the methane remaining in the adsorption tower is replaced with CO 2. Methane flows from the rear of the tower, and the loss of methane in the desorption process is significantly reduced.
- Fig. 2 shows the flow sheet of the equipment at this time
- Table 9 shows the equipment flow sheet.
- the product methane recovery rate increases, reaching a co-current purge rate of 70% and a recovery rate of 98%.
- the maximum value of the cocurrent purge rate should be limited to about 70%.
