Prior to liquefaction, contaminants that freeze at low temperatures or are destructive to processing equipment must be removed from the natural gas streams. Honeywell UOP’s broad range of LNG pretreatment solutions remove impurities, including mercury, acid gas, water and heavy hydrocarbons.

By removing these harmful contaminants upstream of liquefaction processes, plants can run with fewer upsets for longer intervals between shutdowns, adding to your bottom-line performance. Depending on your operation’s needs, UOP processes can be delivered as licensed technologies or modular units.
