A remote hydrocarbon processing system comprising a gas compressor skid, gas processing skid, electric power generation skid, liquid storage tank, blending skid, and crude oil source, are fluid flow interconnected and located proximate to a producing well. Produced gases are delivered from the well to the gas compressor skid. Compressed natural gas is delivered to the gas processing skid where it is thermally separated to generate a processed gas stream and a processed liquid stream. The processed gas stream is delivered to the electric power generation skid and burned to generate electricity that may be delivered to an electric power transmission line. The processed liquid stream is delivered to the liquid storage tank. Crude oil from the crude oil source and processed liquid stream from the liquid storage tank are delivered to the Blending skid and blended into a lower viscosity, higher API gravity transportable crude oil.

An engine-driven cryogenic cooling system for an aircraft includes a first air cycle machine, a second air cycle machine, and a means for condensing a chilled air stream into liquid air for an aircraft use. The first air cycle machine includes a plurality of components operably coupled to a gearbox of a gas turbine engine and configured to produce a cooling air stream based on a first engine bleed source of the gas turbine engine. The second air cycle machine is operable to output the chilled air stream at a cryogenic temperature based on a second engine bleed source cooled by the cooling air stream of the first air cycle machine.

The present application includes a plant for treating gas, particularly natural gas, supplied by a transmission network. The plant includes a gas inlet connected to the transmission network, a portion of the plant that decompresses, to a predefined outlet pressure, a first fraction of the gas from the inlet, and supplies the decompressed gas at a first outlet. The plant also includes another portion that liquifies a second fraction of the gas from the inlet and supplies the liquefied gas at a second outlet. The portion that carries out the decompressing includes a valve for throttling the first gas fraction, a heat exchanger establishing a thermal exchange relationship between the decompressing portion placed downstream the throttle valve and the portion that liquifies and supplies the gas, another heat exchanger establishing a thermal exchange relationship between the plant portions placed downstream the first heat exchanger and upstream the throttle valve. The portion that liquifies and supplies also includes a valve for throttling the second gas fraction that is downstream the first heat exchanger.

This method comprises passing a residual stream into a flash drum to form a gaseous overhead flow and liquid bottom flow, and feeding the bottom flow into a distillation column, It comprises cooling the overhead flow in a heat exchanger to form a cooled overhead flow. It comprises the extraction of a gaseous overhead stream at the head of the distillation column, and the formation of at least one effluent stream from the overhead stream and/or from the top stream. The separation of the cooled overhead flow comprises passing the cooled overhead flow into an absorber, and injecting a methane-rich stream into the absorber to place the cooled overhead flow in contact with the methane-rich stream.

A main heat exchanger receives and partially condenses an effluent fluid stream so that a mixed phase effluent stream is formed. A primary separation device receives and separates the mixed phase effluent stream into a primary vapor stream including hydrogen and a primary liquid stream including an olefinic hydrocarbon. The main heat exchanger receives and warms at least a portion of the primary vapor stream to provide refrigeration for partially condensing the effluent fluid stream. The main heat exchanger also receives, warms and partially vaporizes the primary liquid stream. A mixed refrigerant compression system also provides refrigeration in the main heat exchanger.

A pressurized CO.sub.2 rich gas is cooled down to condense at least part of the stream in a heat exchanger. A bulk of the CO.sub.2 is separated by partial condensation and distillation in order to obtain at least one non-condensable gas from a separation vessel. The non-condensable gas is optionally heated up to a temperature lower than −20° C. (membranes performances is greatly enhanced by low temperature operation). The non-condensable gas is introduced into a membrane permeation unit, producing a residue stream and a permeate stream (the permeate stream is enriched in CO.sub.2). The permeate stream is recycled to the process, optionally after compression. The method is auto-refrigerated, i. e. no external refrigerant is used to provide cooling below 0° C.

A method for processing a gas mixture containing nitrogen and methane, the gas mixture being at least partly liquefied using a mixed refrigerant circuit and is expanded in a storage tank, wherein: formed in the storage tank are a liquid phase, which is depleted in nitrogen and enriched with methane relative to the gas mixture, and a vapour phase, which is enriched with nitrogen and depleted in methane relative to the gas mixture; at least some of the vapour phase is compressed, at least partly liquefied, and subjected to low-temperature rectification; and formed in the low-temperature rectification are a top gas rich in nitrogen and lean in methane, and a bottom liquid lean in nitrogen and rich in methane. The invention provides that the partial liquefaction of the vapour phase is caused by cooling by means of heat exchange using the mixed refrigerant circuit.
