A gas conditioning system is described herein. The system includes a slug catcher configured to separate a hydrocarbon feed stream into a liquid stream and a gas stream, and a first hydrate inhibitor injection unit configured to lower a hydrate formation temperature of the gas stream using a first hydrate inhibitor. The system includes a pressure reduction unit, a first separation unit configured to remove a first liquid stream including the first hydrate inhibitor from the gas stream, a mercury removal unit, and an acid gas removal unit. The system also includes a second hydrate inhibitor injection unit configured to further lower the hydrate formation temperature of the gas stream using a second hydrate inhibitor, a cooling unit, a second separation unit configured to remove a second liquid stream including the second hydrate inhibitor from the gas stream, and a dehydration unit configured to produce a final treated gas stream.

A system for scrubbing and monitoring H.sub.2S includes: a sample inlet valve that controls an input stream of the hydrocarbon gas from the gas canister; a first scrubber that removes a first portion of H.sub.2S from the input stream and that outputs a first stream with less H.sub.2S than the input stream; a second scrubber that removes a second portion of H.sub.2S from the first stream and that outputs a second stream with less H.sub.2S than the first stream; a H.sub.2S converter that converts all remaining H.sub.2S in the second stream into a di-ketone and that outputs an output stream with a concentration of the di-ketone; an optical detector that measures the concentration of the di-ketone in the output stream; and a processor that determines a concentration of H.sub.2S in the second stream based on the concentration of the di-ketone in the output stream.

Provided are a method for preparing an oligomer and an apparatus for preparing an oligomer. The method for preparing an oligomer includes performing an oligomerization reaction by feeding a feed stream containing a monomer to a reactor; feeding a first discharge stream of the reactor to a first separation device, and feeding a second discharge stream of the reactor to a second separation device; feeding a lower discharge stream of the second separation device to a third separation device; feeding an upper discharge stream containing the monomer of the third separation device to a monomer dissolution device and dissolving the upper discharge stream in a solvent fed to the monomer dissolution device; and feeding a discharge stream of the monomer dissolution device to the reactor.

An integrated process for producing acetylene is provided. The process comprises separating a gas stream comprising methane from a fuel gas stream in a fuel gas recovery unit of a process. A fuel and an oxidizer are combusted in a combustion zone of a pyrolytic reactor to create a combustion gas stream, wherein the pyrolytic reactor is integrated with the fuel gas recovery unit via the gas stream comprising methane. A light hydrocarbon stream comprising all or a first portion of the gas stream comprising methane is injected into a supersonic combustion gas stream to create a mixed stream. The velocity of the mixed stream is transitioned from supersonic to subsonic in a reaction zone of the pyrolytic reactor to produce a reaction mixture comprising acetylene, methane, carbon oxides, and hydrogen. The reaction mixture is separated to provide an acetylene stream.

Methods and systems for treating an olefin-containing stream are disclosed. The disclosed methods and systems are particularly suitable for treating an off-gas stream in a refining or petrochemical process, such as from a fluid catalytic cracker (FCC), coker, steam cracker, and the like. The stream is treated in an absorber column to reject lighter stream components and to absorb ethylene and/or propylene into a solvent. The solvent is typically isobutane. The enriched solvent stream from the absorber column is fed to an alkylation reactor, which reacts the dissolved olefin with the isobutane solvent to produce an alkylate product.
