Separation of CH4/CO2/N2 mixtures by layered pressure swing adsorption for upgrade of natural gas

TLDR
In this article, a layered pressure swing adsorption (LPSA) process is proposed to selectively remove carbon dioxide and nitrogen from low and medium natural gas flowrates, which is composed of a zeolite 13X to selectively removing carbon dioxide followed by a layer of carbon molecular sieve 3K to make the separation of nitrogen from methane.
