Condensable Hydrocarbon Recovery
Hydrocarbons heavier than methane that are present in natural gases are valuable raw materials and important fuels. They can be recovered by lean oil extraction. The first step in this scheme is to cool the treated gas by exchange with liquid propane. The cooled gas is then washed with a cold hydrocarbon liquid, which dissolves most of the condensable hydrocarbons. The uncondensed gas is dry natural gas and is composed mainly of methane with small amounts of ethane and heavier hydrocarbons.
The condensed hydrocarbons or natural gas liquids (NGL) are stripped from the rich solvent, which is recycled. Table 1-2 compares the analysis of natural gas before and after treatment. Dry natural gas may then be used either as a fuel or as a chemical feedstock. Another way to recover NGL is through cryogenic cooling to very low temperatures (–150 to –180°F), which are achieved primarily through adiabatic expansion of the inlet gas.
The inlet gas is first treated to remove water and acid gases, then cooled via heat exchange and refrigeration. Further cooling of the gas is accomplished through turbo expanders, and the gas is sent to a demethanizer to separate methane from NGL. Improved NGL recovery could be achieved through better control strategies and use of on-line gas chromatographic analysis.
