Abstract

In a process whereby hydrogen is obtained from gas containing it and hydrocarbon gases, e.g. coal or coke oven gas, by separating the gas into its constituents, removing the hydrogen, decomposing the hydrocarbons in an incandescent fuel bed and returning the resultant gas to the separation stage, the carbon deposited on the fuel is utilized in the production of water gas by intermittent treatment with steam introduced separately or together with the hydrocarbon gases; the water gas may be passed to the separation stage or, together with any carbon monoxide removed in the separation stage, may be catalytically treated with steam and passed to the separation stage. In an example, coke oven gas containing mainly hydrogen and methane with small amounts of illuminants, ethane, carbon monoxide and dioxide and nitrogen is treated to remove tar and sulphur and compressed, benzol is removed by cooling with ammonia and the carbon dioxide absorbed by water or lye; the gas is then further compressed and cooled and the hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide separated. The nitrogen may be allowed to remain if the hydrogen is to be used for ammonia synthesis. In a modification, the carbon monoxide is absorbed in a solution of cuprous ammonium formate and the stripped gas passed to the separation stage. The cracked hydrocarbon gas with the water gas produced by alternate and simultaneous treatment with steam is also passed to the carbon monoxide absorber, from which the carbon monoxide is recovered at intervals and treated catalytically with steam.
