Method and apparatus for producing high purity, food grade CO2 and recovering valuable BTEX fuel from hydrocarbon mixtures such as from a natural gas well. The method involves dehydrating the hydrocarbon mixture and separating the dehydrated mixture into gas and liquid phases, followed by further separation of the liquid phase to produce the BTEX fuel and condensation and distillation of the vapor phase to produce the high purity CO2. The BTEX fuel is recovered at the temperature and pressure that meets specifications for transportation and storage of gasoline, facilitating its sale to market, and the high purity CO2 is produced is produced as liquid CO2 for storage and transportation.
