Abstract
A feed stream, comprising hydrogen sulphide (HS), carbon dioxide (CO), hydrogen (H) and, optionally, carbon monoxide (CO), is separated into at least a COproduct stream and an Hor Hand CO product stream. The stream is separated using a pressure swing adsorption system, an HS removal system and a further separation system, which systems are used in series to separate the stream. The method has particular application in the separation of a sour (i.e. sulphur containing) syngas, as for example produced from the gasification of solid or heavy liquid carbonaceous feedstock.
