Technology of Complex Treatment of Natural Gas before its Delivery to the Consumer

  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

A short list and characteristics of technologies for natural gas purification are provided. A proposed effective technology for complex treatment of natural gas from condensate, hydrocarbon crystal hydrates, mechanical impurities, and sulfur-containing compounds before supplying it to the consumer is described. The main novelty of the proposed technology is the joint use of mechanical (gravitational and centrifugal precipitation) and mass-exchange (adsorption) processes and the use of a new type of adsorbent, i.e., granulated blast-furnace slag, for cleaning from sulfur-containing compounds.
