Amine Sweetening Process... Rich amine is heated by hot regenerated lean amine in the heat exchanger. Rich amine is then further heated in the regeneration still column, by heat supplied from the reboiler. The steam rising through the still liberates H2S and CO2 and therefore regenerates the amine. Steam and acid gases separated from the rich amine are condensed and cooled, respectively, in the reflux condenser. Condensed steam is separated in the reflux accumulator and returned to the still. Acid gases may be flared or directed to an acid gas recovery system. 2, record 3, English, - reflux%20accumulator

A final implication of EGR [enhanced gas recovery] for coalbed methane is the potential for the creation of zero emission power plants. These power plants would create minimal CO2 emissions based on a full life cycle analysis.... This "closed loop" system could potentially release zero CO2 to the atmosphere during the power cycle and would provide cleaner energy. 1, record 4, English, - zero%20emission%20power%20plant

L'une des répercussions finales des techniques de RAG [récupération améliorée de gaz] pour le méthane des gisements de charbon est la possibilité de mettre sur pied des centrales électriques à émissions nulles, qui ne rejetteraient que de faibles volumes de CO2 pour l'ensemble de leur cycle de vie. [...] Avec ce système «en circuit fermé», on pourrait avoir, en théorie, une centrale thermique sans danger pour l'environnement parce que, pendant son cycle de production d'énergie, ses rejets de CO2 dans l'atmosphère seraient nuls. 1, record 4, French, - centrale%20%C3%A9lectrique%20%C3%A0%20%C3%A9missions%20nulles

If the secondary digester is covered, it must, like the primary digester, have a gas recovery system, if the surplus gas which continues to be released at the end of the methane fermentation process is not to be lost.

Retort technology... charcoal processes... The Lambiotte continuous carbonization process is related to the multi-stage type reactor.... Wood is fed continuously through a vertical cylinder into a retort. There, it undergoes three different treatments, moving slowly down to the bottom of the retort. In the first, it is dried, in the second, the charcoal process takes place, and in the third, charcoal is cooled. For the drying stage, pyroligneous gases are removed from the carbonization zone and fanned to the drying zone where they burn with a controlled supply of air. For the cooling stage, gases are removed from under the carbonization stage, where tars have been cracked, and reinjected at the bottom of the retort after having crossed a water cooled system. The sufficiently cooled charcoal is extracted from the bottom of the retort. The level of raw material inside the retort is kept at the maximum height possible. The excess of gas(50%) is generally flared off but can be directed through a by-product recovery system as for the Sific process. The process is fully automated. 1, record 6, English, - Lambiotte%20continuous%20carbonization%20process

Le procédé Lambiotte représente sans doute la technique la plus perfectionnée de pyrolyse du bois. Il opère en continu avec circulation externe de gaz de chauffage [...] Les gaz, au contraire du procédé Reichert, circulent en montant à contre-courant du bois. Il y a une zone de séchage et préchauffage, une zone de carbonisation exothermique puis une zone de refroidissement. Les gaz qui s'échappent par le haut sont refroidis, condensés, lavés. Les calories du charbon de bois sont en partie récupérées et le bilan matière comme le bilan énergétique sont particulièrement bien calculés dans ce procédé. Il faut toutefois utiliser du bois bien sec pour consommer le minimum de chauffage et d'énergie électrique (ventilateurs). 1, record 6, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20Lambiotte
