- Аннотация: A significant proportion of natural gas (NG) is produced in cold climates, where conditions are relevant to the formation of gas hydrates in raw gas stream. Methanol is often used as an effective inhibitor of hydrate formation. Further conditioning of NG includes dehydration, and the most common process of water vapor removal from NG is absorption. Absorption also provides removal of methanol vapors, which allows it reuse. The membrane method of natural gas dehydration is considered as a promising alternative; however, the study of methanol recovery by the membrane method, simultaneously to the dehydration of NG, has not been carried out previously. In addition, data on methanol vapor transfer in gas separation polymer membranes are almost absent in the literature. This paper evaluates the permeability coefficients of methanol vapors for several polymer materials, which are applied to the production of industrial membranes (PPO, PSf, CA). Mathematical modeling of the membrane process of NG dehydration with simultaneous recovery of methanol was performed. The dependencies of membrane area, methanol recovery and energy consumption for methane recycling and recompression on the process parameters are calculated. Obtained data show that the recovery of methanol during membrane dehydration of NG varies in the range 57–95%. The lowest values of membrane area and specific energy consumption were found for PPO based membrane.Keywords: polymeric membranes; natural gas dehydration; membrane gas and vapor separation; methanol recovery; mass transfer modeling
