System and method for removing natural gas liquids from rich gas

Abstract

A system for removing natural gas liquids from raw natural gas having a scrubber that is configured to remove liquid droplets and contaminants from untreated gas; a compressor that is configured to receive the untreated gas after it has passed through the scrubber and to pressurize the untreated gas to create pressurized gas; a first aerial cooler that is configured to receive the pressurized gas from the compressor and to discharge heat to atmosphere; an air chilling unit that is configured to create chilled air; a chilled air exchanger that is configured to receive the chilled air and to cool the pressurized gas from the first aerial cooler to a setpoint to create cooled pressurized gas; and a separator that is configured to remove liquids from the cooled pressurized gas, thereby creating processed gas.
