Temperature swing adsorption process for heavy hydrocarbon removal
10821394 · 2020-11-03 ·

A process is provided to treat a natural gas stream by removing heavier hydrocarbons comprising C5, C6 and heavier hydrocarbons. The process involves sending a natural gas stream through an adsorbent bed to remove heavier hydrocarbons and producing a product stream comprising C1 to C4 hydrocarbons. A portion of the product stream is sent through a regeneration heater to produce a heated regeneration gas stream which is sent through the adsorbent bed to desorb the heavier hydrocarbons. Then the regeneration gas stream is cooled and sent to a separation unit such as a distillation column to divide the regeneration gas stream into a liquid stream comprising heavier hydrocarbons and a recovered regeneration gas stream.

SOLVENT INJECTION AND RECOVERY IN A LNG PLANT

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.

Process for the regeneration of an alkaline solution used in a process for the extraction of sulphur-containing compounds not comprising a washing step

The present invention relates to the field of extraction of sulphur-containing compounds such as mercaptans, COS, H.sub.2S or CS.sub.2 from a hydrocarbon cut.
