METHOD FOR SEPARATING A FRACTION RICH IN C2+ FROM LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS

A process and apparatus for separating a fraction rich in C2+ from liquefied natural gas (LNG) is disclosed. In an embodiment, partial evaporation of the liquefied natural gas occurs in a heat exchanger. The partially evaporated natural gas is separated into a first gas fraction rich in C1 and a fir...

description A process and apparatus for separating a fraction rich in C2+ from liquefied natural gas (LNG) is disclosed. In an embodiment, partial evaporation of the liquefied natural gas occurs in a heat exchanger. The partially evaporated natural gas is separated into a first gas fraction rich in C1 and a first liquid fraction rich in C2+. In a separation column, rectification separation of the first liquid fraction rich in C2+ into a second gas fraction rich in C1 and a second liquid fraction rich in C2+ occurs. The first gas fraction rich in C1 is re-liquefied in the heat exchanger. At least one sub-stream of the re-liquefied gas fraction rich in C1 is fed as a reflux to the rectification separation.
