Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods for hydrogen production with carbon capture are provided. A hydrogen containing stream can be divided so that a portion of the stream is processed for separation of CO 2 . A hydrogen enriched stream formed during separation of CO 2 and another portion of the hydrogen containing stream can be processed in a cycling adsorber unit to form a hydrogen product stream. Optionally, the cycling adsorber unit can be operated to form a plurality of tail gas streams. The hydrogen containing stream can be a reformed hydrocarbon stream and/or an input stream previously exposed to a water gas shift catalyst. Optionally, a portion of the reformed hydrocarbon stream can be a reformed biocomponent stream.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for recovery of hydrogen and carbon dioxide in a refinery, comprising: exposing a feed including at least a biocomponent portion to a hydroprocessing catalyst under effective conditions to produce a deoxygenated biocomponent input stream, said exposing being an exothermic reaction that generates heat; reforming the deoxygenated biocomponent input stream to form an effluent containing hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and a hydrocarbon, the reforming compr…
