Abstract

The process of the present invention provides high recovery and low capital cost giving it an economic advantage over previously known purification processes. The present process has particular applicability to the purification of synthesis gases comprising at least hydrogen (H), carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH), CO, and HO to obtain a gas stream including at least H, CO, and CH, that is substantially free of HO and CO. The process also has applicability to the purification of natural gases inclusive of at least CH, N, CO, and HO to produce a gas stream including at least CHand N, but which is substantially free of HO and CO.
