Claims
- 1. A process for separating carbon monoxide from a fluid containing carbon monoxide and nitrogen comprising treating the fluid with a zeolitic molecular sieve agglomerate comprising a bonded product of a crystalline zeolite and a binder, said crystalline zeolite having, except for water of crystallization, the formula:
- Ba.sub.43x Na.sub.86(1-x) [(AlO.sub.2).sub.86 (SiO.sub.2).sub.106 ](I)
- wherein x is numbered from 0.6 to 0.8.
- 2. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the weight ratio of the crystalline zeolite to the binder is 70:30 to 90:10.
- 3. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein x is 0.64 to 0.78.
- 4. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein x is a number from 0.66 to 0.77.
- 5. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the agglomerate comprises particles having a size of 60 to 80 meshes.
- 6. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the carbon monoxide/nitrogen separation coefficient is in the range of about 3.75 to about 3.90.
- 7. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the nitrogen retention time is about 1.10 and the carbon monoxide retention time is about 3.86.
