Abstract

Gas dehydration is one of the main technological processes in natural gas treatment for pipeline transportation and LNG production. The main task of this research is to increase the efficiency of adsorption gas dehydration. This report presents the results of a comparative assessment and determination of the optimal thermobaric parameters of the process of natural gas dehydration with KSMG type of silica gel and NaA-BS type of zeolite-containing adsorbent. It has been shown that reducing the temperature of the natural gas before dehydration reduces the mass of loaded adsorbent, the mass of adsorber, the consumption of regeneration gas, cooling gases, and fuel gas for heating regeneration gas. Recommendations on the dehydration unit placement after pre-cooling stage in order to reduce capital and operating costs are given at the end of the article. The results are important in the design and modernization of technological processes of the LNG production.
