Abstract

The present invention relates to processes for hydromethanating a carbonaceous feedstock to a methane product stream and electrical power, in which heat energy from the hot methane-enriched synthesis gas is used to generate a dry saturated steam stream, the dry saturated steam stream is converted into a superheated steam stream via pressure drop for feeding into the hydromethanation reactor to satisfy the steam demand of the hydromethanation reaction, and heat generated from a downstream gas methanation processing is recovered to produce a superheated process steam stream which is used to generate the electric power.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 from U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61 / 524,536 (filed 17 Aug. 2011), the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein for all purposes as if fully set forth.[0002]This application is related to commonly owned U.S. patent application Ser. No. ______, (attorney docket no. FN-0070 US NP1, entitled HYDROMETHANATION OF A CARBONACEOUS FEEDSTOCK, concurrently filed herewith), the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein for all purposes as if fully set forth.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0003]The present invention relates to processes for hydromethanating a carbonaceous feedstock to a methane product stream and electrical power, in which heat energy from the hot methane-enriched synthesis gas is used to generate a dry saturated steam stream, and the dry saturated steam stream is converted into a superheated steam stream via pressure drop for feeding into the hydrometh...
