1 PROCESS ECONOMICS PROGRAM SRI INTERNATIONAL Menlo Park, California Abstract Process Economics Program Report No. 135 NATURAL GAS LIQUIES Natural gas liquids (NGL) are the C2-k liquefied hydrocarbons which are recovered above ground in natural gas field facilities or in gas processirg plants. The report concerns the technology and econanics of NGL recovery in gas processing plants by the following three most important processes in commercial use today: Expander Cascade refrigeration Refrigerated absorption. The principal products are ethane, propane, isobutane, n-butane, and C5+ natural gasoline. Capital investment and production costs have been calculated for the expander and cascade refrigeration processes at two natural gas liquids contents (2.32 and 6.26 gal/l,000 scf) and two levels of ethane recoveries (86 and 50%), and for the refrigerated absorption process at the same two natural gas liquids contents but only 50% ethane recoveries. The study shows that, for an equivalent ethane recovery, the expander process has the lowest energy consumption as well as the lowest investment and product value (production cost +25%/yr ROI), followed by the cascade refrigeration and refrigerated absorption processes, in that order.
