Abstract

La presente invencion describe un proceso para la recuperacion de liquidos de gas natural a partir de una corriente de alimentacion de gas, que comprende la formacion de una primera porcion de la corriente de gas de alimentacion y una segunda porcion de la corriente del gas de alimentacion, en donde la proporcion de masa de la primera porcion a la segunda porcion esta en el rango de 95:5 a 5:95, enfriar la primera porcion en un intercambiador de calor y al menos condensar parcialmente la primera porcion, y alimentar la segunda porcion y enfriar al menos la primera porcion parcialmente condensada en una columna de destilacion, en donde los componentes mas ligeros son retirados de la columna de destilacion como una corriente de vapor superior y los componentes mas pesados son retirados de la columna de destilacion en los fondos como un producto de la corriente, y donde la segunda porcion es suministrada dentro de la columna de destilacion en un punto de uno o mas estados de equilibrio de vapor-liquido por debajo de la primera porcion, permitiendo de esta manera el intercambio por trasferencia de masa entre los liquidos de la segunda porcion enfriada y los vapores de la segunda porcion dentro de la columna. Tambien se describe un aparato correspondiente.The present invention describes a process for the recovery of natural gas liquids from a feed gas stream, comprising forming a first portion of the feed gas stream and a second portion of the feed gas stream. , wherein the mass ratio of the first portion to the second portion is in the range of 95: 5 to 5:95, cooling the first portion in a heat exchanger and at least partially condensing the first portion, and feeding the second portion and cool at least the first partially condensed portion in a distillation column, where the lighter components are removed from the distillation column as an overhead vapor stream and the heavier components are removed from the distillation column at the bottoms. as a product of the stream, and where the second portion is supplied into the distillation column at a point of one or more equilibrium states of vapor-liquid below the first portion, thus allowing the exchange by mass transfer between the liquids of the cooled second portion and the vapors of the second portion within the column. A corresponding apparatus is also described.
