- Standard: MDEA (Methyldiethanolamine) is preferred for its selectivity towards H₂S over CO₂, reducing circulation rates and energy consumption.
- Exclusive Insight: Advanced formulations include sterically hindered amines (like FLEXSORB) which offer higher acid gas loading capacities and lower corrosion rates, allowing for smaller contactor towers and reduced capital expenditure (CAPEX).
- Interactive simulations and models: interactive tools for simulating gas processing operations and evaluating different design and operating scenarios
- Video tutorials and animations: visual explanations of complex gas processing concepts and technologies
- Online updates and revisions: regular updates and revisions to ensure the handbook remains current and relevant
1. Introduction: The Wellhead to Market Journey
In the context of the Gas Processing Handbook, gas processing is defined not merely as purification, but as fractionation and value creation. Raw natural gas varies significantly in composition depending on the reservoir. It primarily consists of methane ($CH_4$), but also contains heavier hydrocarbons (ethane, propane, butane, pentanes), and non-hydrocarbon contaminants such as water, carbon dioxide ($CO_2$), hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$), nitrogen, and helium.
