A mobile gas processing plant includes an inlet and an outlet, first and second Joule-Thompson (JT) valve units, an inlet scrubber, a dehydration unit including a contact tower, inlet and outlet filter separators, a vertical separator, and a dual pass line heater including first and second heating coils. The mobile gas processing plant is a mobile unit that is permanently mounted on at least one transport. The dehydration unit includes a contact tower that is permanently mounted on the at least one transport such that the contact tower is rotated up to be in an upright position relative to a base frame of the transport in an operational mode, and the contact tower is rotated down to be in a prostrated position relative to the base frame in a transportation mode. Each of the first and second JT valve units includes a first JT valve and a second JT valve. In the operational mode, and for each of the first and second JT valve units, a hydrocarbon gas stream flows through one of the first and second JT valves operating as a primary valve, and does not flow through the other of the first and second JT valves operating as a backup valve.

Provided is a method for upgrading a bio-based material, the method including the steps of pre-treating bio-renewable oil(s) and/or fat(s) to provide a bio-based fresh feed material, hydrotreating the bio-based fresh feed material, followed by separation, to provide a bio-propane composition.

A process for the efficient transfer of molecules between phases employing mesoporous poly (aryl ether ketone) hollow fiber membranes is provided. The method addresses the controlled transfer of reactants into and removal of reaction products from a reaction media and the removal and separation of target molecules from process streams by membrane-assisted liquid-liquid extraction. A number of possible modes of liquid-liquid extraction are possible according to the invention by utilizing porous poly (aryl ether ketone) hollow fiber membranes of Janus-like structure that exhibit a combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface characteristics. The method of the present invention can address the continuous manufacture of chemicals in membrane reactors and is useful for a broad range of separation applications, including separation and recovery of active pharmaceutical ingredients.

This process comprises quenching and washing with water a gas stream derived from pyrolysis, and separating an aqueous phase from a washed gas stream; compressing, then cooling a washed gas stream; washing the compressed gas stream under pressure; passing the washed gas stream through at least one acid removal unit; drying the acid-depleted gas stream; passing the dry gas stream through at least one impurity removal unit; and feeding the purified gas stream into a cryogenic absorption unit and supplying the cryogenic absorption unit with a hydrocarbon cryogenic solvent to obtain a light gas residue, and a fraction of C.sub.2.sup.+ hydrocarbons.
