Abstract

В рассматриваемых установках и способах извлечения NGL из исходных газов с содержанием диоксида углерода, равным приблизительно 2% или более, используются конфигурации с регулированием температуры, которые обеспечивают высокий уровень и универсальное извлечение этана и более тяжелых компонентов, в то же время при осуществлении способа предотвращается замерзание диоксида углерода. Когда исходный газ содержит значительную долю компонентов С+ и имеет умеренное содержание диоксида углерода, можно применять конфигурацию с одной колонной и промежуточным конденсатором флегмы, в то время как для исходных газов с высоким содержанием диоксида углерода и относительно низкой концентрацией компонентов С+ можно применять конфигурации с двумя колоннами.The considered installations and methods for extracting NGL from source gases with a carbon dioxide content of approximately 2% or more use temperature-controlled configurations that provide a high level and universal extraction of ethane and heavier components, while at the same time freezing is prevented carbon dioxide. When the source gas contains a significant proportion of C + components and has a moderate content of carbon dioxide, a single column configuration and an intermediate reflux condenser can be used, while for starting gases with a high content of carbon dioxide and a relatively low concentration of C + components, configurations with two columns.
