PROCESSES FOR REMOVING HEAVY HYDROCARBONS AND WATER FROM A STREAM OF NATURAL GAS

Process for retrofitting existing processing units for natural gas fee streams. A portion of the dehydration adsorbent is removed from the vessels of the dehydration unit and is replaced with an adsorbent for heavy hydrocarbons. In operation the vessels are operated in thermal swing adsorption proce...

Summary:Process for retrofitting existing processing units for natural gas fee streams. A portion of the dehydration adsorbent is removed from the vessels of the dehydration unit and is replaced with an adsorbent for heavy hydrocarbons. In operation the vessels are operated in thermal swing adsorption processes with reduced cycle times compared to the original design. L'invention concerne un procédé d'adaptation d'unités de traitement existantes pour des flux d'alimentation de gaz naturel. Une partie de l'adsorbant de déshydratation est retirée des récipients de l'unité de déshydratation et est remplacée par un adsorbant pour hydrocarbures lourds. En fonctionnement, les récipients sont actionnés dans des procédés d'adsorption modulée en température avec des temps de cycle réduits par comparaison avec la conception originale.
