- Capacity: 10,000 ~ 500,000 Nm³/d (skid-mounted, customizable)
- Applicable components: Feed gas containing C3 (propane) and C4 (butane)
- Process: Boosting → Dehydration & Desulfurization → Condensing / Cryogenic Separation → De-ethanization → Propane & Butane Refining
- Products: Propane (95%+), Butane (95%+), Mixed LPG
- Product Purity: 95% ~ 99.5% (commercial LPG standard)
- C3 Recovery Rate: ≥ 85% ~ 95%
- C4 Recovery Rate: ≥ 90%
- Operating Pressure: 1.6 ~ 2.5 MPa
- Refrigeration: Propane refrigeration, mixed refrigerant, or expansion refrigeration
- Structure: Integrated skid-mounted, movable, explosion-proof design
- Ambient Temperature: -40℃ ~ +60℃ (desert, offshore, plateau compatible)
3. Product Applications
- Residential fuel, industrial fuel, chemical feedstock
- Refrigerant, blowing agent, solvent, clean vehicle fuel
- Export trading, tank farm storage, petrochemical processing
- Strict EU restrictions on natural gas venting and flaring; LPG recovery is mandatory for environmental compliance.
- Meets EU ETS, methane reduction, and CBAM requirements, improving ESG performance.
- Stable demand for industrial and residential LPG across Europe.
- Skid-mounted, small footprint, fast approval, ideal for North Sea and onshore scattered wells.
- High-value applications in chemicals, refrigeration, and industrial heating.
- Abundant C3/C4 components in shale gas associated gas, providing top economic returns globally.
- Eligible for US 45Q tax credits and EPA methane reduction benefits.
- Mature LPG markets for residential heating, chemicals, and petrochemicals.
- Weak pipeline networks in Latin America make LPG the dominant residential fuel with large supply gaps.
- Movable skids suitable for scattered well pads in North America.
- Booming oil and gas development in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand with rich associated gas.
- LPG demand growing over 8% annually for residential, catering, and industrial use.
- LPG is more economical than pipeline gas in non-piped areas.
- Can be equipped with small LPG tanks and truck loading skids for local distribution.
- Corrosion-resistant design for high-temperature, high-humidity environments.
4. Middle East
- Extremely rich associated gas with high C3/C4 content and high recovery value.
- LPG used in petrochemicals, power generation, desalination, and residential fuel.
- Suitable for building LPG export bases to Africa, South Asia, and Europe.
- Designed for high-temperature, dusty desert environments with 24h unattended operation.
- Aligns with Saudi 2060 and UAE 2050 carbon neutrality strategies.
- Massive flaring of associated gas with low-cost feedstock and high profit margins.
- Severe LPG shortage and high reliance on imports.
- Movable skids ideal for scattered wellheads and off-grid areas.
- Products directly supply urban gas, catering, fishery, and mining industries.
- Qualified for green energy financing from the World Bank and African Development Bank.
