Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods, processes, and systems for safely and reliably purifying hydrogen from a gas mixture containing hydrogen and oxygen.

Process for separation of hydrogen and oxygen

Systems and methods for processing crude methanol are disclosed. A crude methanol stream, comprising methanol and paraffin wax, is produced from syngas (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen). The crude methanol stream is cooled to form a partially condensed crude methanol stream, which is further separated in a vapor-liquid separator to form a liquid stream and a gas stream. The liquid stream is further cooled in a dewaxing unit to remove paraffin wax. The dewaxing unit includes two or more cooling units arranged in parallel such that when one of the cooling units is offline for cleaning, the methanol system does not need to be shut down.

Systems and methods related to the production of ethylene oxide, ethylene glycol, and/or ethanolamines

A reactor for hydrocarbon production that separates wax reaction products from lightweight gaseous reaction products. The reactor has a housing, a catalyst bed, a product recovery zone, and a stripping zone. The catalyst bed can be provided in multi-tubular and other fixed bed configurations. The stripping zone receives light-weight gas reaction products from the product recovery zone, while a gas outlet of the housing receives non-lightweight gaseous hydrocarbon reaction products from the product recovery zone. A wax outlet of the housing receives wax products from the product recovery zone.
