Fundamentals of Natural Gas Processing 2nd Edition by Arthur J. Kidnay, William R. Parrish and Daniel G. McCartney describes indispensable insight from experts in the field by providing introduction to the gas industry and the processes required to convert wellhead gas into valuable natural gas and hydrocarbon liquids products.
The authors compile information from the literature, meeting proceedings, and their own work experiences to give an accurate picture of where gas processing technology stands today as well as to highlight relatively new technologies that could become important in the future. The second edition of this bestselling text reflects important advances in gas processing technologies, including those related to liquefied natural gas (LNG).
There is background information in five new chapters that cover processing principles, pumps, heat transfer, separation processes, and phase separation equipment with more discussions of many gas processes, questions and exercises at the end of most chapters to stress important concepts. To help nonengineers understand the technical issues, the first part of the text presents an overview of the basic concepts. The topics covered in this part are applicable throughout the gas, oil, and chemical industries.
The second part addresses each step of natural gas processing, with a focus on gas plant processes. The chapters in this section follow the gas stream, from gas bought at the wellhead to gas entering the marketplace. Wherever possible, the authors examine the advantages, limitations, and ranges of applicability of the processes so that their selection and integration into the overall gas plant can be fully understood.
For readers without a background in chemical engineering or who are just entering the field, this book offers a thorough introduction to the natural gas industry. It also helps those in the gas industry better understand how their products and services fit into the overall process.
