The natural gas arriving through pipe 1 is deacidified by being brought into contact with a solvent in zone C. The solvent charged with acid compounds is regenerated in zone R. The acid gases, released into pipe 5 upon regeneration, include a quantity of solvent. The method enables the solvent conta...
