The function of this section is to convert up to 15 x 10/sup 9/ Btu/day of U-Gas from 300 Btu/scf by additional CO/sub 2/ removal and methanation to 950 Btu/scf. The methanated gas is deposited with MLGW in their natural gas distribution system for Btu credit. This section can also adjust up to 45 x 10/sup 9/ Btu/day of 1031 Btu/scf natural gas, withdrawn from the MLGW natural gas pipeline, by air addition to reduce the heating value to 300 Btu/scf as IFG substitute to assure reliable industrial fuel gas supply to the IFG customers. A portion of the desulfurized U-Gas from gas treating is fed to the credit generation system. The credit generation system consists of the following process units: gas compression, shift conversion, acid gas removal, methanation, rich gas drying and odorization, and the credit withdrawing system.
