Carbon dioxide gas in a high-pressure gas to be treated is stably separated using a separation membrane. Upon separating carbon dioxide gas in a high-pressure gas to be treated using a separation membrane module including a separation membrane, a preliminary boosted gas is supplied to the separation membrane module before the supply of natural gas is started to boost a pressure on a primary side of the separation membrane to a preliminary pressure between a stand-by pressure and an operating pressure. Thus, when the supply of a high-pressure gas to be treated is started to increase the pressure of the separation membrane module to an operating pressure, an abrupt decrease in temperature of the gas to be treated can be suppressed.

Carbon dioxide gas separation method and carbon dioxide gas separation apparatus

To regenerate, by a simple method, an inorganic separation membrane separating non-hydrocarbon gas contained in treatment target gas. Provided in separating the non-hydrocarbon gas contained in the treatment target gas is a regeneration gas supply path supplying moisture-containing regeneration gas to a primary side of the inorganic separation membrane in a separation membrane module. As a result, it is possible to regenerate the inorganic separation membrane by supplying moisture-containing CO2 gas to the inorganic separation membrane and then supplying dry natural gas. Accordingly, there is no need to use dry regeneration gas and the CO2 gas supplied via, for example, a pipeline can be used as it is.
