Abstract

The gas mixture to be treated (1) is washed (5) between 0 DEG C and -45 DEG C by means of a solvent (6) for CO2 and C3 and higher hydrocarbons to produce a methane stream (8) containing not more than 2 mol% of CO2 and a CO2-rich liquid phase (11) containing at least 80 mol% of C3 and higher hydrocarbons from the gas mixture (1). The liquid phase (11) is subjected to a demethanization (12, 17) producing a demethanized rich solvent (27) and a methane-rich gas phase (22), and then the rich solvent (27) is subjected to a regeneration producing a regenerated solvent (34) which is recycled into the washing zone (5), and a gas mixture (42) containing the CO2 and the C2 and higher hydrocarbons which are present in the methanized rich solvent, the said gas mixture being separated by regenerative washing with a C5 and higher hydrocarbon solvent, into a CO2-rich acidic gas stream containing, expressed as methane equivalent, less than 10 mol% of hydrocarbons, and into a C2 and higher hydrocarbon cut (48) containing at least 80 mol% of the C3 and higher hydrocarbons present in the gas to be treated (1).
