Abstract

A process for processing of an inert-rich natural gas stream with a preferential physical solvent to obtain a specification-grade inert gas product, a specification-grade hydrocarbon gas product, and a specification-grade hydrocarbon liquids product. The process is an adaptation of the extractive flashing and extractive stripping versions of the Mehra Process.
