Abstract

Предлагается способ удаления кислых веществ из подаваемого потока дегидратированного природного газа. Подаваемый поток дегидратированного природного газа охлаждается до условий, при которых образуется суспензия твердых кислых веществ и углеводородных жидкостей совместно с газовым потоком, содержащим газообразные кислые вещества. Газовый поток, содержащий газообразные кислые вещества, затем отделяется от суспензии и обрабатывается жидким растворителем и тем самым образуется жидкий раствор кислых веществ и продукт в виде потока дегидратированного раскисленного природного газа. Также предлагается устройство для удаления кислых веществ из подаваемого потока дегидратированного природного газа. Устройство имеет емкость с зоной образования твердых веществ, связанной потоками с зоной газовой сольватации. Зона образования твердых веществ сконфигурирована для облегчения образования суспензии из твердых кислых веществ и углеводородных жидкостей, и газового потока, содержащего газообразные кислые вещества. Зона газовой сольватации сконфигурирована для облегчения образования жидкого раствора кислых веществ. Устройство имеет вход для ввода подаваемого потока дегидратированного природного газа в зону образования твердых веществ, трубопровод, сконфигурированный для направления газового потока из зоны образования твердых веществ в зону газовой сольватации, и вход для ввода жидкого растворителя в зону газовой сольватации.A method for removing acidic substances from a dehydrated natural gas feed stream is proposed. The feed stream of dehydrated natural gas is cooled to conditions under which a suspension of solid acidic substances and hydrocarbon liquids is formed together with a gas stream containing gaseous acidic substances. The gaseous stream containing gaseous acidic substances is then separated from the slurry and treated with a liquid solvent, thereby forming a liquid solution of acidic substances and a product in the form of a dehydrated deoxidized natural gas stream. A device is also proposed for removing acidic substances from a dehydrated natural gas feed stream. The device has a container with a zone for the formation of solid substances connected by flows with a zone of gas solvation. The solids formation zone is configured to facilitate the formation of a slurry of acidic solids and hydrocarbon liquids and a gaseous stream containing acidic gases. The gas solvation zone is configured to facilitate the formation of a liquid solution of acidic substances. The device has an inlet for introducing a feed stream of dehydrated natural gas into the zone of solids formation, a pipeline configured to direct the gas flow from the zone of formation of solids to the zone of gas solvation, and an inlet for introducing a liquid solvent into the zone of gas solvation.
