Technical solution for supplying permeate gas from Ca Mau gas processing plant to Ca Mau fertilizer plant
Abstract
At Ca Mau Gas Processing Plant, the CO2 adjustment skid produces approximately 140 kSm3/day of permeate gas, of which 40 - 50 kSm3/ day is consumed as low-pressure fuel gas for heating systems. The remaining permeate gas of 90 - 100 kSm3/day is discharged to the flare, where it is burned along with gases associated with the processing. In order to recover and utilize the whole of permeate gas, the research team proposed a technological solution using a gas ejector to transfer the permeate gas to Ca Mau Fertilizer Plant. The recovered gas is then blended with natural gas and used as feedstock for urea production. This solution demonstrates the efficient utilization of permeate gas, optimizes the use of fuel sources and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
