Process flow description
The raw natural gas enters the inlet separator to filter out
mechanical impurities and separate the free water, then enters the
compressor after precision filtration by the dust filter, and is
cooled to 40 ~ 45 ℃ by the cooler of the compressor itself, and
then separates some water and heavy hydrocarbons (in case of
excessive heavy components), and then enters the dehydration unit
for deep dehydration. The dry feed gas from the dehydration skid
enters the condensation separation skid, then it enters the
refrigeration unit after precooling to ~ 10 ℃ through the heat
exchanger. Next after cooling the feed gas to – 35 ℃ and cooling
again through throttling, it enters the low-temperature separator
for gas-liquid separation after
The separated gas phase and liquid phase enter the deethanizer
respectively, the tower top gas returns to the heat exchanger for
reheating and output outside the boundary, and the tower bottom
liquid enters the depropane and debutane tower for separation
again. LPG at the top of the tower and stable light hydrocarbon at
the bottom of the tower enter the storage tank respectively for
loading and export.
Scope of process flow
Process flow scope of the unit: 1 compressor skid, 1 integrated
skid (including raw material filtration and separation unit,
pressure regulating and metering unit, dehydration unit and
condensation separation unit), 1 refrigeration unit skid, 2 LPG
Storage skids, 2 stable light hydrocarbon skids, two sets of truck
crane pipes, 1 set of instrument air system, 1 set of instrument
control system and separation tower skid,excluding circulating
water system, flare and release system, power generation system,
power supply and distribution and other public systems.
