A method for separating Nfrom a hydrocarbon gas mixture containing Ncomprising the steps of: i) providing a bed of adsorbent selective for N; (ii) passing the hydrocarbon gas mixture through the bed of adsorbent to at least partially remove Nfrom the gas mixture to produce: (a) N-loaded adsorbent and (b) N-depleted hydrocarbon gas mixture; iii) recovering the N-depleted hydrocarbon gas mixture; iv) regenerating the N-loaded adsorbent by at least partially removing Nfrom the adsorbent; and v) sequentially repeating steps (ii) and (iii) using regenerated adsorbent from step (iv); wherein the adsorbent comprises a pyrolized sulfonated macroporous ion exchange resin.

Separation of nitrogen from hydrocarbon gas using pyrolyzed sulfonated macroporous ion exchange resin

A method for separating natural gas liquids (NGLs) from a hydrocarbon gas mixture containing natural gas liquids and methane, comprising the steps of: i) providing a bed of adsorbent selective for NGLs over methane; ii) passing a hydrocarbon gas mixture containing methane and NGL through the bed of adsorbent to at least partially remove NGLs from the gas mixture to produce: (a) NGL-loaded adsorbent and (b) NGL-depleted hydrocarbon gas mixture; iii) recovering the NGL-depleted hydrocarbon gas mixture; iv) regenerating the NGL-loaded adsorbent by at least partially removing NGLs from the adsorbent; and v) sequentially repeating steps (ii) and (iii) using regenerated adsorbent from step (iv).

Separation of hydrocarbons using regenerable macroporous alkylene-bridged adsorbent

A method of eluting metal ions from a bed of metal-loaded chelating resin wherein the resin includes a crosslinked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer matrix with pendent methyleneaminopyridine or phosphonic acid groups and the method includes the step of passing an eluant through the bed to at least partially remove the metal ions from the chelating resin and create a metal-rich eluate, wherein the eluant includes an aqueous solution comprising an amino acid compound having a molecular weight less than 500 Daltons.

Elution of metal ions from chelating resin using amino acid eluant

Methods of purifying acidic metal solutions by removing at least a portion of alpha-particle emitting materials are provided. The purified metal solutions are useful in a variety of applications requiring low levels of alpha-particle emission.

Alpha-particle emitter removal

The present invention relates to a process for the recovery of cobalt comprising: (i) providing a high tenor cobalt solution wherein the high tenor cobalt solution comprises cobalt and nickel; (ii) contacting the high tenor cobalt solution with an N-(2-hydroxypropyl)picolylamine resin to load the N-(2-hydroxypropyl)picolylamine resin with cobalt and nickel; (iii) eluting the cobalt from the loaded N-(2-hydroxypropyl)picolylamine resin; and (iv) eluting the nickel from the loaded N-(2-hydroxypropyl)picolylamine resin.

Process for separating copper and/or nickel from cobalt containing solutions

A method for extracting cobalt from copper raffinate. First, a supply of raffinate containing at least cobalt, copper, ferric iron and nickel, is provided. The raffinate is pretreated by one or all of raising the raffinate pH level; removing solids; and, reducing ferric iron to ferrous iron. Substantially all copper is removed using first ion exchange resin selective for copper. A second ion exchange resin selective for both cobalt and nickel is used to remove the cobalt and nickel. Cobalt and nickel are separately eluted from the second ion exchange resin.
