PROCESS FOR THE REMOVAL OF CO2 AND SULFUR COMPOUNDS FROM INDUSTRIAL GASES, IN PARTICULAR FROM NATURAL GAS AND RAW SYNTHESIS GAS

摘要

A process for the removal of CO2 and sulfur compounds from natural gas and raw synthesis gas wherein N-formylmorpholine and N-acetylmorpholine mixtures are used as the desorbent at temperatures between -20.degree.C and +40.degree.C at pressures of 10 to 150 bar in a scrubbing operation. The acid gases are removed from the absorbent by flashing and the regenerated absorbent is recycled to the absorbent.
