Filed:

Aug 3, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/565881

Inventors:

Fei Chen - Whitehouse Station NJ, US
Xukun Luo - Allentown PA, US
Christopher Michael Ott - Laurys Station PA, US
Mark Julian Roberts - Kempton PA, US
Gowri Krishnamurthy - Allentown PA, US

Assignee:

AIR PRODUCTS AND CHEMICALS, INC. - Allentown PA

International Classification:

F25J 1/00

US Classification:

62620

Abstract:

A method and apparatus of removing heavy hydrocarbons from a natural gas feed stream, the method comprising using first and second hydrocarbon removal systems in series such that the first system processes the natural gas feed stream to produce a heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas stream and the second system processes at least a portion of the heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas stream from the first system to produce a natural gas stream lean in heavy hydrocarbons, wherein one of said systems is a adsorption system that comprises one or more beds of adsorbent for adsorbing and thereby removing heavy hydrocarbons from a heavy hydrocarbon containing natural gas, and the other of said systems is a gas-liquid separation system for separating a heavy hydrocarbon containing natural gas into a heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas vapor and a heavy hydrocarbon enriched liquid.

Assignee:

Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. - Allentown PA

International Classification:

F25J 1/00
F25J 3/02

Abstract:

A natural gas liquefaction method and system having integrated nitrogen removal. Recycled LNG gas is cooled in a separate and parallel circuit from the natural gas stream in the main heat exchanger. Cooled recycled gas and natural gas streams are directed to a nitrogen rectifier column after the warm bundle. The recycle stream is introduced to the rectifier column above the natural gas stream and at least one separation stage is located in the rectifier column between the recycle stream inlet and the natural gas inlet. The bottom stream from the rectifier column is directed to a cold bundle of the main heat exchanger where it is subcooled.

Assignee:

Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. - Allentown PA

International Classification:

F25J 1/00

Abstract:

A system and method for liquefaction of a natural gas stream utilizing a plurality of asymmetric parallel pre-cooling circuits. The use of asymmetric parallel cooling circuits allows for greater control over each refrigerant stream during the cooling process and simplifies process control by dedicating heat exchangers to performing similar duties.

F25J 3/02
F25J 1/00

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for liquefying a natural gas feed stream and removing nitrogen therefrom to produce a nitrogen-depleted LNG product, in which a natural gas feed stream is fed into the warm end of a main heat exchanger, cooled and at least partially liquefied, withdrawn from an intermediate location of the main heat exchanger and separated to form a nitrogen-enriched natural gas vapor stream and a nitrogen-depleted natural gas liquid stream, the liquid and vapor streams being reintroduced into an intermediate location of the main heat exchanger and further cooled in parallel to form a first LNG stream and a first at least partially liquefied nitrogen-enriched natural gas stream, respectively.

International Classification:

C12N 15/113

Abstract:

The disclosure relates to oligonucleotide compounds (oligomers) that target Myc mRNA in a cell, leading to reduced expression of Myc. Reduction of Myc expression is beneficial for the treatment of certain disorders, such as hyperproliferative disorders (e.g., cancer). The disclosure provides therapeutic compositions comprising oligomers and methods for modulating the expression of Myc using said oligomers, including methods of treatment.
