Molecular Weight of Gas

Posted on September 16, 2009October 29, 2012

The molecular weight of the stream is calculated from the weighted average gas molecular weight given by: The molecular weight of the gas stream of…

LTX Units and Line Heaters

LTX Units

Posted on September 15, 2009October 28, 2012

These units are designed to allow hydrates to form and to melt them with the heat of the incoming gas stream before they can plug…

Mechanical Design of Pressure Vessels

Separator Pressure Vessels Nozzles

Posted on September 24, 2009October 29, 2012

Nozzles should be sized according to pipe sizing criteria, such as those provided in API RP 14E. The outlet nozzle is generally the same size…

Gas Processing

Gas Processing Plant Condensate Stabilizer

Posted on May 27, 2013

A gas-processing plant, is designed to recover ethane, propane, butane, and other natural gas liquids from the gas stream. A condensate stabilizer also recovers some…
