    Gas Processing Methods

    Uploaded by

    The document describes the key processing methods used in natural gas processing plants. Raw natural gas from gas wells first has condensate and water removed. It then undergoes acid gas removal to remove hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide using various processes like amine treating. The acid gas is processed in a sulfur recovery unit using the Claus process to produce elemental sulfur. Additional treatment steps include tail gas treating, dehydration, mercury removal, nitrogen rejection, natural gas liquid recovery, and sweetening before the sales quality natural gas is sent to pipelines. The overall process flow and unit operations in a typical natural gas processing plant are outlined.

    The document outlines the various processing steps involved in extracting natural gas from wells and preparing it for transportation and end use, including removing impurities and separating out valuable components.

    The main steps involve removing condensate and water, removing acid gases like H2S and CO2, separating out natural gas liquids, and dehydration to produce 'sales gas' that can be sent through pipelines.

    Some of the major processes for removing acid gases mentioned include amine treating, Benfield process, PSA unit, Sulfinol process, and Claus process/acid gas sulfur unit.
