<p>This invention provides a pressure swing adsorption process for purifying a synthesis gas stream containing from 60 to 90 mole % hydrogen and impurities such as CO2, CH4 N2, and CO. The PSA process of the invention further provides a method of adsorbing substantially all of the nitrogen and other contaminants from the feed gas stream; wherein the feed stream is passed at superatmospheric pressure through a plurality of adsorbent beds and each adsorbent bed contains at least a CaX, LiA, LiX or calcium containing mixed cation zeolite having a SiO2/Al2O3 mole ratio of 2.0-2.5. Such process involves sequentially pressurizing, depressurizing, purging and repressurizing the adsorbent beds with product hydrogen, and recovering product hydrogen in purities of 99.9% or greater from the beds. <IMAGE></p> |
