HELIUM-ENRICHED HELIUM-HYDROGEN MIXTURE FROM AMMONIA SYNTHESIS VENT GAS USING REGENERATORS TO CONGEAL RESIDUAL NITROGEN

For the production of helium, a helium-containing vent gas from an ammonia synthesis gas is used as the starting material. The vent gas is subjected to several partial condensation steps and is also cooled in a regenerator to deposit residual nitrogen, argon and methane impurities. A stripping colum...

Zusammenfassung:For the production of helium, a helium-containing vent gas from an ammonia synthesis gas is used as the starting material. The vent gas is subjected to several partial condensation steps and is also cooled in a regenerator to deposit residual nitrogen, argon and methane impurities. A stripping column is preferably employed to obtain pure liquid hydrogen and a gaseous helium-hydrogen mixture further enriched in helium.
