Control Method And Apparatus

View page
US Patent:
8409323, Apr 2, 2013
Filed:
Apr 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/081808
Inventors:
Michael J. Collins - Lockport NY, US
David F. Suggs - Eggertsville NY, US
Sadashiv M. Swami - Tonawanda NY, US
Richard M. Kelly - East Amherst NY, US
Assignee:
Praxair Technology, Inc. - Danbury CT
International Classification:
B01D 46/46
US Classification:
95 1, 95 8, 95 23, 95 54, 429482, 429495, 429496
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling the electrical power applied to an electrically driven oxygen separation device having one or more composite membrane elements to separate oxygen from an oxygen containing feed. The composite membrane elements have a resistance increasing during the operation thereof that would act to reduce oxygen output if applied voltage were held constant. In order to increase the time interval for renewing the composite membrane elements, the electrical potential difference is controlled such that the electric current drawn by the elements remains at a substantially constant level by increasing the electrical potential difference as the resistance increases until a predetermined voltage level is reached. Once this level is obtained, the electrical potential difference is maintained at a constant level and the electric current being drawn and the oxygen output is allowed to decay to a predetermined low level after which the element or elements are replaced.

Oxygen Supply Method And Apparatus

US Patent:
20110265644, Nov 3, 2011
Filed:
Apr 28, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/769030
Inventors:
Sadashiv Swami - Tonawanda NY, US
Philip A. Barrett - Tonawanda NY, US
Richard Martin Kelly - Buffalo NY, US
International Classification:
B01D 53/22
B01D 46/46
US Classification:
95 22, 95 54, 96 4
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for supplying oxygen to meet a user demand in which oxygen is separated from air by an electrically driven oxygen separation device to supply oxygen to meet the user demand and to charge an adsorbent bed with all or part of the separated oxygen. When a user demand exists, oxygen can be supplied from both the electrically driven oxygen separation device and from oxygen desorbed from the adsorbent bed.

High Purity Ceramic Oxygen Generator

View page
US Patent:
20140076736, Mar 20, 2014
Filed:
Mar 1, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/782219
Inventors:
Jerome T. Jankowiak - Williamsville NY, US
David F. Suggs - Eggertsville NY, US
Sadashiv M. Swami - Tonawanda NY, US
Lane A. Keser - Tonawanda NY, US
Arthur C. Selover - Tonawanda NY, US
International Classification:
C25B 9/08
C01B 13/02
US Classification:
205633, 204278
Abstract:
A high purity ceramic oxygen generator incorporating a module utilizing a plurality of tubular ceramic membrane elements and configured to operate in: (i) a pressurizing mode to separate oxygen from an oxygen containing feed stream when an electric potential difference is applied to induce oxygen ion transport in an electrolyte thereof; and (ii) an idle mode when the electric potential difference is removed. The ceramic oxygen generator further includes one or more manifolds as well as one or more automatic purge valves located upstream of the oxygen receiving tank. The purge valve is opened for a pre-set duration upon initiation of the pressurization mode to purge any nitrogen or other contaminating gas that diffuses into the ceramic oxygen generator during idle mode thereby ensuring the desired purity level of oxygen is received by the oxygen receiving tank.

Oxygen Transport Membrane Reactors For Decarbonization

US Patent:
20230070799, Mar 9, 2023
Filed:
Dec 18, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/790161
Inventors:
- Danbury CT, US
Sadashiv M. Swami - Williamsville NY, US
Maulik R. Shelat - Macungie PA, US
Ines C. Stuckert - Grand Island NY, US
Steven M. Brown - Amherst NY, US
Shrikar Chakravarti - East Amherst NY, US
Juan Li - Clarence NY, US
Digna Vora - Buffalo NY, US
International Classification:
C01B 3/38
C01B 3/48
C01B 13/02
Abstract:
A method and system for decarbonization of a hydrocarbon conversion process such as steam methane reforming process for hydrogen production utilizing oxygen transport membrane reactors. The system employs catalyst-containing reforming reactors for converting natural gas into synthesis gas which is further treated in high temperature or medium temperature water gas shift reactors and fed to a hydrogen PSA to produce hydrogen product. The system further employs oxygen transport membrane reactors thermally coupled to reforming reactors and configured to oxy-combust about 90% to about 95% of combustibles in PSA tail gas that may be optionally mixed with natural gas. The oxy-combustion product stream leaving the oxygen transport membrane reactors contains about 90% of the carbon provided to the feed of the reforming reactor. The carbon dioxide in the oxy-combustion product stream can be recovered and further purified for utilization or geologic storage or liquefied to form a liquid carbon dioxide product.

Method Of Thermally-Stabilizing An Oxygen Transport Membrane-Based Reforming System

View page
US Patent:
20170166445, Jun 15, 2017
Filed:
Dec 15, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/969486
Inventors:
Sean M. Kelly - Pittsford NY, US
Sadashiv M. Swami - Tonawanda NY, US
John D. Peck - West Seneca NY, US
International Classification:
C01B 3/38
Abstract:
A method of operating an oxygen transport membrane based reforming system employing one or more packs of thermally coupled panels of reformer tubes and oxygen transport membrane (“OTM”) reactors close to thermo-neutral point is provided. The method produces syngas by converting a hydrocarbon-containing feed, such as natural gas in the reformer tubes of a pack by endothermic steam reforming reactions. The heat required for endothermic reforming reactions is provided by exothermic oxidizing reactions occurring inside the OTM reactors of the pack. At a thermo-neutral point the heat released by exothermic reactions matches the heat required to support endothermic reactions and heat losses in the pack. The method modulates the flow rate of hydrocarbon-containing feed and/or steam-to-carbon ratio of the combined feed to the pack to maintain the surface temperature of oxygen transport membrane reactors below a target maximum temperature. The syngas product oxygen-to-carbon ratio is maintained within a desired target range such that the OTM based reforming system is operated close to thermo-neutral point.
