A method for removing natural gas liquids from raw natural gas involving the steps of: passing untreated gas through a scrubber to remove liquid droplets and contaminants; delivering the untreated gas to a compressor, which pressurizes the untreated gas to create pressurized gas; passing the pressurized gas through a first aerial cooler to discharge heat to atmosphere; providing a chilled air exchanger and an air chilling unit; chilling air by passing the air through the air chilling unit to create chilled air; delivering the chilled air to the chilled air exchanger; passing the pressurized gas through the chilled air exchanger to cool the pressurized gas to a setpoint to create cooled pressurized gas; and delivering the cooled pressurized gas to a separator to remove liquids from the cooled pressurized gas, thereby creating processed gas. A system having the components listed above.

The present invention provides a novel process and system in which a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen synthesis gas, or syngas, is converted into hydrocarbon mixtures composed of high quality gasoline components, aromatic compounds, and lower molecular weight gaseous olefins in one reactor or step. The invention utilizes a novel molybdenum-zeolite catalyst in high pressure hydrogen for conversion, as well as a novel rhenium-zeolite catalyst in place of the molybdenum-zeolite catalyst, and provides for use of the novel catalysts in the process and system of the invention.

Organic sulfur compounds which are generally present in the crude oil undergoes various transformations while processing the crude oil in the secondary processing units such as fluid catalytic cracker, hydrocracker, delayed coker, visbreaker, etc. The sulfur present in the feed which enters into these secondary processing units are distributed into various products coming out of the units. Sulfur compounds which are present in the various product fractions are removed to meet the desired specifications before routing to the final product pool. Conventionally, sulfur present in the LPG has been removed by amine treatment followed by caustic and water wash. The present invention relates to a process for removal of sulfur and other impurities from Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) comprising olefins through reactive desulfurization route. The present invention is an eco-friendly process as it minimizes or eliminates the use of caustic which is conventionally used to remove the sulfur from LPG.

A natural gas pretreatment system includes: a carbon dioxide removal unit configured to remove carbon dioxide from the natural gas by bringing an absorption liquid and the natural gas into contact with each other; and a water removal unit configured to remove water by causing the natural gas to flow through a packed bed containing a water adsorbent. The packed bed contains a carbon dioxide adsorbent for adsorbing and removing the carbon dioxide that has not been completely removed in the carbon dioxide removal unit, and a concentration of the carbon dioxide contained in the natural gas is measured by an outlet-side carbon dioxide measurement unit on an outlet side of the water removal unit.

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for processing liquefied natural gas (LNG). In one implementation, a solvent is injected into a feed of natural gas at a solvent injection point. A mixed feed is produced from a dispersal of the solvent into the feed of natural gas. The mixed feed contains heavy components. A chilled feed is produced by chilling the mixed feed. The chilled feed includes a vapor and a condensed liquid. The condensed liquid contains a fouling portion of the heavy components condensed by the solvent during chilling. The liquid containing the fouling portion of the heavy components is separated from the vapor. The vapor is directed into a feed chiller heat exchanger following separation of the liquid containing the fouling portion of the heavy components from the vapor, such that the vapor being directed into feed chiller heat exchanger is free of freezing components.

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.
