The Determination of Water Content in Natural Gas: Aspen Hysys Simulation and P,T Analysis

Abstract

Natural gas is currently one of the most important fossil fuels in the group of non-renewable energy sources, which is used very widely due to its properties. In order to be able to use it safely, it must be adjusted in accordance with the technical-delivery conditions before use. One of the basic quality parameters of natural gas is the water content, which is set at a maximum value of 110 mg per m3 of natural gas. For this reason, it is necessary to correctly determine the water content before the gas treatment, in order to choose the right dehydration technology. In this article, three methods were used to determine the water content of natural gas.
