Abstract
The invention relates to a method for purifying synthesis gas, in particular for ammonia synthesis, wherein a partial stream () of an H-rich, CO-containing synthesis gas stream is burned, in particular to generate electrical energy, and wherein at least one component contained in the remaining H-rich, CO-containing synthesis gas stream (), in particular in the form of carbon dioxide, methanol and/or water, is absorbed by an adsorber at low temperatures, after which said absorbed component is desorbed from the adsorber by flushing using nitrogen () at higher temperatures. According to the invention the H-rich partial stream () is diluted using the nitrogen () used for the flushing before being burned. The invention further relates to a system () for purifying synthesis gas, in particular for ammonia synthesis.
