PKU PIONEER - The first equipment for purification of carbon monoxide from calcium carbide furnace e
Recently, PIONEER has signed project cooperation agreement with XinjiangTianye (Group) Co., Ltd on carbon monoxide purification technology. XinjiangTianye purchased a new carbon monoxide purification device to recycle ofcalcium carbide furnace exhaust, they will use Pressure Swing Adsorption technology(PSA) to synthetize of MEG by the separation of high purity CO, and this is thefirst CO purification plant that used in MEG synthesis with the calcium carbidefurnace exhaust currently in China. Xinjiang Tianye(Group) Co., Ltd. is a leading enterprise in calcium carbide industry, and ithas made one million tons calcium carbide in 2010. The program which involves 28000Nm3/hof calcium carbide furnace exhaust is located in Industrial Zones of ShiHeZi inXinJiang province, and it will make 50,000 tons MEG. The calcium carbidefurnace exhaust is the main component of carbon monoxide, which is accountedfor more than 80%, then others are N2, H2, CH4and sulfide and so on. The general techn
