Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for separating and recovering ethane, propane and heavier components from a feed gas, e.g. raw natural gas or a refinery or petroleum plant gas stream or a petrochemical plant gas stream. These methods employ a common new concept which is the use of the turbo-expander shaft compressor to generate the reflux requirement for the cryogenic absorber or distillation columns. The power of the turbo-expander which is absorbed by the shaft compressor is always high enough so that reflux generation by a specific gas compression through the expander shaft compressor and subsequent cooling, condensation and sub-cooling can always be easily maintained. The present invention allows for higher cryogenic absorber pressure and a lower demethanizer/de-ethanizer column pressure thus eliminating the common cryogenic pump at absorber bottom. The present invention ultimately results in a lower residue compression and utilities consumption. The present invention as such allows for a higher 99+% recovery of NGL from the feed gas stream.

This application claims benefit of U.S. provisional application Ser. No. 60/500,014 filed Sep. 5, 2003. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to processes for recovery of ethane, propane and NGL from natural gas whereby the expander shaft compressor is located in a new locations permitting the reflux generation requirement for the cryogenic absorber and/or gas processing distillation columns. 
     Current prior art processes for recovery of natural gas liquids comprise:
         A large sales gas export compressor that unnecessarily increases utilities, the large size needed to compensate for a high pressure drop across a turbo expander that provides some process refrigeration and dictating a low cryogenic absorber pressure.   A relatively high capacity cryogenic pump to pump a bottoms liquid stream from a cryogenic absorber.   Expander feed gas being at least partly condensed and used as a reflux to a demethanizer, causing loss of propane from a bottoms liquid product.   Process configuration and operating conditions that might result in a lower ethane plus or propane plus recovery (less than 99%). U.S. Pat. No. 6,581,410 B1.   Process configuration and operating conditions whereby maximum heat integration between cold and hot streams are not always optimally effected. This results in a lower outlet temperatures of cold streams and accordingly a lower overall UA.   In propane recovery, relatively large energy consumption in a de-ethanizer bottom reboiler due to operation at pressures higher than a cryogenic absorber.   In propane recovery, a de-ethanizer must be designed with a relatively large diameter.   In propane recovery mode, extra equipment must be installed to provide chilling of feed gas through heat exchange with de-ethanizer side draw.   In ethane recovery, additional multi-flash vessels and LNG multi-stream, platefin heat exchangers are needed to generate multiple reflux streams for an absorber de-methanizer.   Excess carbon dioxide tends to accumulate an NGL product   In propane recovery, additional compressors are needed to recycle de-ethanizer overhead gases to a cryogenic absorber, which operates at a pressure above the de-ethanizer. PCT/US01/20633, WO 02/14763, US 2002/0166336 A1.   In propane recovery, ethane can build up in a gas loop between a de-ethanizer and a cryogenic absorber that makes operation unstable.   In a propane recovery, lean gas and de-ethanizer OVHD gases are recycled back to the cryogenic absorber. US 2004/0148964 A1, WO 2004/057253 A2.       

     U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,578,379, 6,278,035, 6,311,516, 6,354,105, 6,453,698, and 6,244,070 generally describe a state of the art using multiple pieces of expensive equipment and/or external refrigeration systems to accomplish high recovery of ethane from NGL. Older references, such as U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,851,020, 4,867,499, and 5,992,175, show ethane recovery systems with somewhat fewer pieces of equipment and less reliance on external refrigeration. The systems in these older references have been found to be incapable of obtaining presently commercially required recovery of ethane from NGL feeds. 
     Fractionation of the natural gas feed requires that a product stream contain a minimum specified amount of carbon dioxide. Obtaining a low level of carbon dioxide in the product stream has in the past typically required two or more separated fractionation columns processing the natural gas feed. 
     There is a need for a process that minimizes or eliminates the above problems. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     A first form of the invention for ethane recovery is titled the “Ethane Plus Process”. 
     A second form of the invention for propane recovery is titled “HHH” Process for Propane Recovery”. 
     The present invention comprises processes for very high level recovery of ethane and natural gas liquids (“NGL”) from natural gas. The present invention uses an expander shaft compressor combination in a new location in the process flow sheet as compared with a prior art location as a booster compressor for a lean gas stream just prior to its compression by an export gas compressor, or to compress de-methanizer and de-ethanizer top product gases to lean gas pressure or to increase the feed gas pressure upstream the expander. This new application for the expander shaft compressor will include but not limited to the following applications:
         In a propane recovery mode for the process unit, compress de-ethanizer overhead gas and recycle it back, compressed, cooled and expanded as an absorption stream, to a top stage of a cryogenic absorber.   In an ethane recovery mode for the process unit which employs a single absorber demethanizer tower combination, compress, cool, and recycle part of a product (“sales”) gas stream (i.e., also part of an overhead gas stream of a absorber demethanizer tower) as reflux for the absorber demethanizer.   In an ethane recovery mode for the process unit, compress, cool, and recycle all demethanizer OVHD gas as reflux for the cryogenic absorber (in case of having a dedicated high pressure absorber and a dedicated low pressure demethanizer)   In a propane recovery mode and/or ethane recovery mode for the process unit, compress and cool part of an overhead gas stream from a cryogenic absorber upstream the absorber OVHD condenser for use as a refrigerant in heat exchange (OVHD condenser) with an overhead gas stream from either the cryogenic absorber demethanizer, a de-ethanizer or demethanizer. This refrigerant after absorbing such heat is returned at the same take-off point at same temperature and pressure to the overhead gas stream from the cryogenic absorber from which it was drawn.   In a propane recovery mode and/or ethane recovery mode for the process unit, condense and subcool part of an overhead gas stream from a cryogenic absorber (lean gas) for use as a refrigerant in heat exchange (OVHD condenser) with an overhead gas stream from either a de-ethanizer or demethanizer. This refrigerant after absorbing such heat is heated and compressed through the expander shaft compressor with or without residue gas from Deethanizer or demethanizer to be used as a reflux for the cryogenic absorber after being condensed, subcooled and expanded to absorber pressure.   Compress part of the feed gas or the expander feed gas or other gases in the flow sheet to be used as a refrigerant for absorber OVHD condenser or demethanizer OVHD condenser or Deethanizer OVHD condenser. The refrigerant after absorbing the heat load can be returned to an appropriate location in the flow sheet       

     As a result of this new location and service of the expander shaft compressor combination, the following advantages are realized:
         In a propane recovery mode for the process unit, the cryogenic absorber operates at a much higher pressure and reduces the export gas compressor size and utilities.   In a propane recovery mode for the process unit, the de-ethanizer operates at a much lower pressure and reduces external reboiling heat requirement, which in turn reduces the required column diameter.   In a propane recovery mode for the process unit, a pump for a bottoms liquid stream from the cryogenic absorber can be eliminated in most cases.   In an ethane recovery mode for the process unit, the demethanizer operates at a much lower pressure, which in turn reduces the required column diameter and eliminates the absorber bottom cryogenic pump. This is in case of having a dedicated high pressure absorber and a dedicated low pressure demethanizer configuration.   Higher ethane and propane recoveries in all mode of operation.   Lower carbon dioxide in NGL product in most of the cases.   Less number of processing equipment e.g., dedicated external feed or recycle compressors, dedicated self refrigeration packages and accessories, multiple cold box and flash vessels and others       

     In these processes, a feed gas is partly condensed and separated into a liquid feed fed to a single column and a vapor part fed to an expander. The expansion of part of the feed gas to power a compressor that compresses a part of the vapor overhead of the column, whereafter the compressed part of the vapor overhead is substantially condensed in at least two side reboilers for the column and a third bottom reboiler. The substantially condensed and compressed stream is flashed and fed to the top tray of the column. These steps to provide reflux to the column result in a highly effective solvent for ethane and NGL recovery from vapor rising through the column. The flashed reflux stream provides so much additional cooling duty to the column that ethane recovery with the invention processes can result in recovery of as much as 99.6 mole percent of the ethane in the feed gas. 
     An object of the present invention processes is to generate a solvent for ethane and NGL recovery, where the volume of the solvent needed can be varied by increasing or decreasing the portion of the column vapor overhead directed to a compressor connected by shaft to the feed gas expander. 
     Another object of the invention is to operate the cryogenic absorber at a much higher pressure in order to save power of the export compression. (in case of having a two separate absorber and de-methanizer. The latter is operating at a lower pressure than the absorber) 
     Another object of the invention is to provide heating duty for two side reboilers for the column from the heat of compression of the recycle part of the absorber demethanizer or all of de-ethanizer or demethanizer overhead vapor stream. 
     Another object of the invention is to provide a process configuration where carbon dioxide content in the NGL product stream is reduced over the prior art in some cases. This in turn reduces the cost and utilities of carbon dioxide treatment unit downstream of the invention process unit. 
     “HHH” Process for Propane Recovery 
     A second form of the invention comprises a process for propane recovery using a cryogenic absorber and a deethanizer. The equipment list is similar to the first form of the invention, in that a sales gas compressor, expander/compressor and two air coolers are used. A feed gas is partly condensed, with the liquid part being further cooled and fed to a deethanizer and the vapor part being expanded and fed to a lowest stage of a cryogenic absorber. An overhead gas stream from the absorber becomes the product gas stream. A solvent stream for the absorber is formed from the overhead gas stream from the deethanizer after compression via expander shaft compressor, air cooling and flashing to absorber pressure. The evaporative effect of the solvent stream increases the fractionation effect of the absorber. 
     The single expander is preferably (typical to given case) operated with an intake stream at about −40 degrees C. or lower, where the process benefits in that the condensation of ethane and heavier components will be effectively brought to the bottom product stream of the column. 
     The single column (i.e., a cryogenic absorber) is preferably (typical to given case) operated at 37 Barg or higher, as it has been found that it improves recovery of ethane and heavier components from the expander outlet gas portion and reduces buildup of ethane in recycle streams, as well as reducing the substantial size and utility requirements of the sales gas compressor.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The item numbers of  FIGS. 1 and 2  represent similar process streams and equipment as appropriate. The item numbers of  FIG. 3  refer only to that figure&#39;s description below and to the Case  4  shown in Table 4. The present invention comprises a number of cases. Case  1  corresponds to Table 1 below and  FIG. 1 . Case  2  corresponds to Table 2 below and  FIG. 2 . Case  3  corresponds to Table 3 below and  FIG. 2 . Case  4  corresponds to Table 4 below and  FIG. 3 . Cases  1 – 3  are directed to an ethane recovery process (“Ethane Plus Process”) with reduced equipment cost and utilities requirements. Case  4  is directed to a propane recovery process (“HHH” Process) with reduced equipment cost and utilities requirements. 
       FIGS. 1 and 2 , and their corresponding processes, are substantially the same except that in  FIG. 2  a portion of the feed gas  1  is cooled in exchanger LNG- 104  and exchanger LNG- 100  before being delivered to the high pressure separator V- 100 . Several pieces of heat transfer equipment are identified with the prefix “LNG-”, which indicates the presence of a multistream heat exchanger. The particular advantages of these exchangers may appreciated with a review of Tables 1–3 for those pieces of equipment, in that relatively close approach temperatures are easily attained, as is well known in the art. 
       FIG. 1  shows a feed gas stream  1  being cooled in exchanger LNG- 100 , forming stream  3 , which is in turn separated in vessel V- 100 , a high pressure separator. Vapor stream  4  is expanded in expander K- 100  to form stream  8 . Stream  8  is fed to column T- 101 , a column with in a specific form about 25 theoretical stages. Stream  5  is withdrawn from vessel V- 100  and flashed across valve VLV- 100  to form stream  9 . Streams  8  and  9  are fed to column T- 101 , in a specific example, at stages  7  and  14  of column T- 101 . Column T- 101  comprises at least two side reboiler exchangers LNG- 102  and LNG- 103  which respectively take streams  40  and  50  from stages  11  and  15 , heat them and return the heated streams  41  and  51  to stages  12  and  16 . A bottom reboiler exchanger LNG- 103  heats stream  60  to form stream  61 . Column T- 101  produces an overhead vapor stream  20  that is heated in exchanger LNG- 101  to form stream  22  and a bottoms liquid stream NGL that is the NGL product stream for this process. Vapor stream  22  is heated in exchange LNG- 100  to cool feed gas stream  1 , producing a vapor stream  23  that is split to form a first vapor stream  26 , compressed in compressor K- 102  and cooled in air cooler AC- 101  to form this process&#39; sales gas stream, and a second vapor stream  25  that is compressed in compressor K- 101  via the expansion energy of expander K- 100  (the invention part of the flowsheet). Stream  25  thereafter forms stream  10 , which is cooled in air cooler AC- 100  to form stream  11 . Stream  11  is cooled sequentially in exchangers LNG- 104 , LNG- 103 , LNG- 102  and LNG- 101  respectively forming streams  70 ,  71 ,  72  and  17 . Stream  17  is flashed at valve VLV- 102  into column T- 101  to form the sole reflux stream for column T- 101 . 
     The process shown in  FIG. 1  and whose data appears in Table 1 obtains approximately 99.3 mole percent recovery of stream  1  ethane. It has been found that, as compared with prior art processes, carbon dioxide is reduced in the NGL product stream NGL. The processes of Cases  1 – 3 , i.e.,  FIGS. 1 and 2 , use a single fractionation column for ethane absorption as well as NGL production. The composition and volume of solvent used for capturing ethane and NGL can be changed with varying the flow rate of stream  25  to increase or decrease recycle. In addition, all the reboiling requirements of column T- 101  are effectively recovered to the process primarily to generate reflux and solvent for column T- 101 . 
       FIG. 2  is substantially the same in description and process except that the stream FEED is split into streams  1  and stream  2 . Stream  2  is cooled in exchanger LNG- 104  in indirect heat transfer with stream  60 , cooling in that exchanger along with stream  11 . The cooled stream  2 , i.e., stream  2 A, is further cooled in exchanger LNG- 100  with stream  1 , with streams  2 C and  3  being formed respectively for separation in vessel V- 100 . This apparently small change in process stream heat integration produces surprising results. 
     The recovery of ethane for Cases  2  and  3  are about 99.4 mole percent and 99.6 mole percent respectively. Case  1  and Case  2  require cooling so that stream  5  is cooled to about −46 degrees C. Case  3  requires cooling so that stream  5  is about −48 degrees C. This small change requires the appropriate process modifications shown in the tables, where Case  3  is shown to be superior in recovering heavier components over Cases  1  and  2 . Column T- 110  pressure is also different as to the Cases  1 – 3 , where in Cases  1  and  3  the pressure is 23.5 Barg and 24.5 Barg in Case  2 . 
     Column T- 101 , for Cases  1 ,  2  and  3  respectively operates with an overhead stream  20  temperature of −102.2 degrees C., −101.1 degrees C., and −102.4 degrees C. at pressures of 23 Barg, 24 Barg, and 23 Barg. At these conditions, stream  20  is almost ethane free. 
     In Case  1 , recycle gas stream  10  is cooled in the air cooler to about 66 degrees C., sufficient for reboiling column T- 101 . For Cases  2  and  3 , recycle gas stream  10  is be cooled in the air cooler to about 40 degrees C., sufficient to provide the reboiling duty for T- 101  in those cases in addition to heat load provided by part of the feed gas stream. Cold residue recycle gas stream  72  is further condensed and sub cooled by exchange with cold stream  20  in exchanger LNG- 101 . Product sales gas is compressed to 62.75 Barg. This configuration provides, in addition to high ethane recovery and less CO2 in NGL product, a less number of processing equipment like cold boxes and flash vessels. 
     Case  4  is shown in  FIG. 3  and its operating data shown in Table 4. Case  4  is for propane recovery. Feed gas  1  is cooled in exchanger E- 1  against streams  27 ,  10  and  11  to form stream  2 , a partly condensed stream separated in vessel V- 1  to form a vapor stream  3  and a liquid stream  4 . Stream  4  is flashed to form stream  9 , which is cooled in exchanger E- 3  and exchanger E- 1  respectively to form streams  10  and  13 . Stream  13  is fed to a mid stage of deethanizer column C- 2 . Column C- 2  produces an overhead vapor stream  14  that is cooled in exchanger E- 3  to form stream  15 , which is separated into vapor and liquid streams  16  and  18 / 19 . Stream  18 / 19  is the entire reflux for column C- 2 . A bottom liquid stream  20  of column C- 2  is split to form reboiling stream  21  and NGL product stream  17 . 
     In  FIG. 3 , vapor stream  16  is heated in exchanger E- 2 , compressed in compressor K- 1 , cooled in exchanger A- 1 , cooled in exchanger E- 2 , and flashed across a valve to respectively form streams  22 ,  23 ,  24 ,  25  and  26 . Stream  26  forms the sole absorption solvent stream for cryogenic absorber C- 1 , which contacts the vapor part of stream  5  in absorber C- 1 . The overhead vapor stream  6  of absorber C- 1  is heated in exchanger E- 2 , heated in exchanger E- 1 , compressed in compressor K- 2 , and cooled in air cooled exchanger A- 2  to respectively form streams  27 ,  28 ,  29 , and  30  to deliver a sales gas product stream. Stream  3  from vessel V- 1  is expanded in expander EXP- 1  to form steam  5 , which is fed to the bottom of absorber C- 1 . The sole energy used to drive compressor K- 1  is from the shaft energy from expander EXP- 1 . 
       FIG. 4  shows a second case of the second form of the invention for ethane recovery. Two separate columns, cryogenic absorber C- 1  and de-methanizer C- 2 , are used. A de-methanizer top gas is heated in a series of heat exchangers E- 3  and E- 1  and is compressed via expander shaft compressor. Compressed gas is then returned as a reflux to column C- 2  top tray after being cooled, condensed, sub-cooled (in E- 2 ) and throttled in pressure to absorber pressure. 
       FIG. 5  shows a fourth case of the first form of the invention for ethane recovery. In this case the expander shaft compressor K- 100 /K- 101  is used to used to provide the power requirement of an internal refrigeration system. A slip stream from column T- 101  overhead is heated and compressed in expander shaft compressor K- 100 /K- 101 . It is then cooled, condensed and sub-cooled at high pressure. The stream is then throttled to a pressure just above a take off point pressure. Throttling generates refrigeration which allows the mixture to be used as a refrigerant to provide the cooling and reflux generation in the column T- 101  OVHD condenser system. The mixture after heating is returned to same take off point at same pressure and temperature. 
       FIG. 6  shows a fifth case of the first form of the invention for ethane recovery. In this case, a slip stream of the feed is compressed via the expander shaft compressor K- 100 /K- 101  and is then used as a reflux for column T- 101  after being cooled, condensed, sub-cooled and throttled to column pressure. The mixture from the feed expander is then directed to a mid point in the column T- 101  top section. 
       FIG. 7  shows a sixth case of the first form of the invention for ethane recovery. In this case, expander shaft compressor K- 100 /K- 101  is used to provide the overhead condenser duty of column T 101  absorber de-methanizer column. An open loop, self refrigeration system is made via compressing part of the feed gas stream. The refrigerant after heat exchange in the OVHD condenser is directed to a middle point of the top section of the absorber de-methanizer. 
     The above design options will sometimes present the skilled designer with considerable and wide ranges from which to choose appropriate apparatus, conditions, compositions and method modifications for the above examples. However, the objects of the present invention will still be obtained by that skilled designer applying such design options in an appropriate manner.
