| Summary: | Natural Gas usually contains significant quantities of water vapor. This water must be removed in order to protect the system from corrosion and hydrate formation. Also, the water vapor moved through the system must be reduced to acceptable levels required by gas industry. Typically, the allowable water content in gas transmission lines ranges from 4-7 lb H2O/MMPCS.
The most important factors in the accurate design of a gas dehydration system are the wet inlet gas temperature and operation pressure. Without this basic information, the sizing of an adequate dehydrator is impossible. There are many other important data required to accurately size a degydration system. These include pressures, flow rates and volumes.
The purpose of this paper is to review the different natural gas dehydration processes used in the hydrocarbon industry and technological advances that have impacted the installation and operation of these facilities. |
