22 Dew point control via refrigeration Refrigeration : The most common method used for gas dew point control is mechanical refrigeration. This technology is suited especially when pressure is not available to be used to self refrigerate the gas. : Two variations exist of this process. one that recycles the stabilizer overhead to the front end of the plant, used to maximize the recovery of certain components, and a second that re-injects the stabilizer overhead in the residue gas stream. Mechanical Refrigeration

23 J-T valve : If the raw gas is at high pressure, the removal of hydrocarbons can be accomplished by refrigeration obtained through the expansion of gas by means of a Joule -Thomson valve. : Injection of glycol is required to prevent the formation of hydrates. J-T Valve

24 Turboexpander : This process is a variation of the Low Temperature Separation process in which the pressure hold in the gas is used to move an expander turbine, which in the isoentropic expansion generates refrigeration and exports mechanical work. : This work is used to drive a compressor to partially restore the gas pressure. Turbo Expander

46 Conclusion For LPG product spec. (satisfying production rate, C 3 /C 4 value, RVP and so on) De-C 2 inlet fluid should be cooled for higher C 3 and C 4 recovery. C 3 /C 4 and RVP control can be De-C 2 re-boiler duty control and De-C 3 reflux ratio. For stable operation (preventing hydrate, water freezing and free water), Water content in dehydrated gas should be 2 3 ppm (about 0.1 lb/mmscf). (DRIZO) Condensate stabilizer should be introduced.
