Systems and methods for de-watering of hydrocarbon production wells which uses electrolysis of a water fraction in downhole fluids and a reaction chamber at a distal end of a hydrocarbon production well to generate hydrogen and oxygen gases, to improve hydrocarbon inflow into the production well. The produced hydrogen and / or oxygen gases may be used in combination with hydrocarbons produced by the production well to fuel a gas turbine at surface to generate electrical power for the electrolysis, or such gases may be recombined at surface to provide purified water. A first gas collection means surrounds a region above or proximate an anode for collecting the oxygen gas, and a first production tubing extends therefrom to surface. Means are further provided for collecting and producing hydrogen gas at a cathode, either in combination with produced hydrocarbons from the production well, or separately therefrom.

The present invention belongs to the chemical engineering field and relates to a new amine etherification reactor and a corresponding amine etherification reaction method. The present invention discloses an amine etherification reactor, which includes an alkanolamine storage tank, a concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank, a Venturi-type distributor, a reaction kettle, a water collection tank with an exhaust port, etc.; The present invention is a new method for obtaining amine ethers by using alkanolamine, concentrated sulfuric acid and alkali (sodium hydroxide) as main raw materials, through steps such as continuous heat-collecting mixing and batching, water-controlled etherification, neutralization, solid-liquid separation and rectification separation. The water fraction separated by atmospheric rectification can be recycled, and the use of organic solvents is not involved. Therefore, the safety risks caused by the use of organic solvents are reduced, the inherent safety of the process is improved, the reaction time is shortened and the work efficiency is increased.

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing a hydrogen product, in which an intermediate product containing water vapor and oxidizable pollutants is formed from a hydrocarbon-containing feedstock and processed to obtain the hydrogen product, wherein water together with oxidizable pollutants is condensed out of the intermediate product to obtain a process condensate (1), from which a deaerator exhaust gas (4) containing water vapor and oxidizable pollutants is removed in a deaerator (D). The invention is characterized in that the deaerator exhaust gas (4) is separated into a water fraction (8) and a gas fraction (7) which is depleted in water vapor and enriched in oxidizable pollutants relative to the deaerator exhaust gas (4), said gas fraction being introduced into the combustion chamber of a process furnace in order to combust the oxidizable pollutants.
