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.
