Abstract

A system includes an acid gas removal (AGR) system configured to remove an acid gas from an untreated syngas to generate a treated syngas, a hydrogen separation system configured to receive the treated syngas to generate a non-permeate and a permeate, and an expander configured to expand the non-permeate to generate a cooled non-permeate. The AGR system includes a solvent chiller configured to cool a solvent via heat exchange with the cooled non-permeate.
