INTENSIFICATION OF HYDROCARBON VAPOR CONDENSATION PROCESS
Keywords:
Hydrocarbon condensation, gas-liquid contactor, energy efficiencyAbstract
This article analyzes the method of using gas-liquid contactors to improve the hydrocarbon vapor condensation process and increase its efficiency. Compared to conventional methods, this technology reduces energy consumption, minimizes emissions into the atmosphere, and enables efficient hydrocarbon recovery. The working mechanism of gas-liquid contactors, their technical advantages, and their industrial applications are examined.
