Abstract
A method and apparatus of removing heavy hydrocarbons from a natural gas feed stream (100), the method comprising using first and second hydrocarbon removal systems in series such that the first system processes the natural gas feed stream (100) to produce a heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas stream and the second system processes at least a portion of the heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas stream from the first system to produce a natural gas stream lean in heavy hydrocarbons (106), wherein one of said systems is a adsorption system (40) that comprises one or more beds of adsorbent for adsorbing and thereby removing heavy hydrocarbons from a heavy hydrocarbon containing natural gas, and the other of said systems is a gas-liquid separation system for separating a heavy hydrocarbon containing natural gas into a heavy hydrocarbon depleted natural gas vapor and a heavy hydrocarbon enriched liquid.
