Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An overhead recycle process apparatus (100) comprises a heat exchange arrangement (116, 118, 120, 146, 150, 198) and a separator (110) in fluid communication with an absorber (104) and a de-ethaniser (106), the absorber (104) having a reflux inlet port (164). An ethane rectifier (170) in fluid communication with the de-ethaniser (106) is also provided, the de-ethaniser (106) being arranged to provide cooling by heat exchange to an overhead stream path (194) of the ethane rectifier (170). The ethane rectifier (170) comprises a reflux drum (182) having an ethane outlet port (184) and a vapour phase outlet port (185) in fluid communication with the reflux inlet port (164) of the absorber (104).
