In this investigation, a natural-gas (NG) treatment system for NG sources with high CO₂ content is simulated experimentally and theoretically using Aspen Plus. The concept uses patented heat exchangers and a process design developed as part of the cryogenic carbon capture(CCC) process to remove enough CO₂ to enable the treated gas to be handled without the modification of traditional NG equipment. Simultaneously, the process removes liquefied natural gas (LNG) very efficiently. This process provides a simpler alternative to the solvent-based CO₂ removal, absorbent drying, and cryogenic NG liquid extraction systems found in traditional NG processing. The data from an experimental bench-scale apparatus verify the results of the simulations as a function of NG composition and pressure. Costing parameters, exergy loss, and heat-exchanger efficiency are also discussed. The results confirm low exergy losses for bench-scale apparatus. The system uses heat exchangers with efficiencies of more than 90 %. High pressure and low methane content in the NG result in high CO₂ capture.
