<p>The present invention discloses a method for catalytic production of a methane-rich gas mixture from sulfur-containing synthesis gas with simultaneous at least partial sulfur removal, thereby: a) producing a synthesis gas mixture; b) bringing said synthesis gas mixture into a contact with a methanation catalyst thereby continuously deactivating the methanation catalystby sulfur and optionally carbon species comprised in the synthesis gas mixture in one part of the methanation process, while a part of said depleted methanation catalyst is simultaneously regenerated by oxidation in a different part of the process; c) the methanation catalyst is a metal, a metal oxide, a metal sulfide or a mixture of metals, metal oxides or metal sulfide/nitride/phosphide on a support; d) said metal or metals are selected from a group comprising Ni, Ru, Mo, Co, Fe, Rh, Pd, Pt, Ir, Os, W, V, wherein the support is an oxide of a group comprising Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, CeO2, ZrO2, carbides, nitrides, phosphides or a mixture thereof, wherein e)the metal or metals can be promoted by one or more of the following elements: K, P, Na, Ba, Ni, Ru, Rh, Co, Pt, Pd, Ir, W, Os, V, Mn. The method achieves a nearly complete methanation of CO in the presence of both organic and inorganic sulfur compounds, such as olefins, tars etc.,combined with an at least partial uptake of sulfur followed by a relatively fast oxidative regeneration of the methanation catalyst (bed material)and sulfur release, preferably at a temperature level near the methanation temperature.</p> |
