A method is described for separating COand/or HS from a mixed gas stream by contacting the gas stream with a non-aqueous, liquid absorbent medium of a primary and/or secondary aliphatic amine, preferably in a non-aqueous, polar, aprotic solvent under conditions sufficient for sorption of at least some of the CO. The solution containing the absorbed COcan then be treated to desorb the acid gas. The method is usually operated as a continuous cyclic sorption-desorption process, with the sorption being carried out in a sorption zone where a circulating stream of the liquid absorbent contacts the gas stream to form a CO-rich sorbed solution, which is then cycled to a regeneration zone for desorption of the CO(advantageously at &#x3c;100&#xb0; C.). Upon COrelease, the regenerated lean solution can be recycled to the sorption tower. CO:(primary+secondary amine) adsorption molar ratios&#x3e;0.5:1 (approaching 1:1) may be achieved.

Methods are provided for synthesizing novel types of self-assembled siloxanes, such as polysiloxanes, with a sufficiently high density of amine functional groups to be useful for COcapture and release processes. Additionally, it has been unexpectedly found that some self-assembled polysiloxanes can be used for high temperature adsorption of CO.

This invention relates to a process for separating a hydrocarbon stream via a filtration process to produce an upgraded permeate stream with decreased Conradson Carbon Residue ('CCR') content. The invention involves the modification of a porous ceramic filter by functionalizing the surface of the ceramic filter with an multi-ring aromatic-diimide polymer. Preferably, the multi-ring aromatic-diimide polymer is comprised of a multi-ring aromatic monomer component. The functionalized filters of the present invention can be used in a process to selectively separate components of a hydrocarbon stream to produce an improved permeate (or 'filtrate') product stream with a lower CCR content and improved processing capabilities. The functionalized filters of the present invention are particularly beneficial in filtration processes for upgrading heavy hydrocarbon feedstreams, such as whole crudes, topped crudes, synthetic crude blends, shale oils, oils derived from bitumens, oils derived from tar sands, atmospheric resids, vacuum resids, or other heavy hydrocarbon streams.

Functionalized filters for heavy oil upgrading

The present systems and methods utilize a polyamic acid solution as a precursor to form a polyimide bead having desired properties. The polyamic acid solution may be formed into a polyamic acid droplet. The polyamic acid droplet is then processed to form a polyamic acid bead, such as by extraction of solvent to concentrate the polyamic acid or by partial chemical imidization of the polyamic acid. The polyamic acid bead is then better able to retain its shape during subsequent processing steps, such as drying and pressurizing, before final thermal imidization.
