The following Table shows the compositions of a natural gas feed to a gas plant.

Component Mole fraction

C1 0.8159
C2 0.0121
C3 0.0178
i-C4 0.0062
n-C4 0.0052
i-C5 0.0043
n-C5 0.0043
C6 0.0054
H2 S 0.0757
CO2 0.0531
TOTAL 1
FLOWRATE 7800
e3m3/d
H2 O m 3 / e 3 m 3 0.01
Product specifications are:

Sales gas:
H2S < 4 ppmv
CO2 = 2.0 mole%
HHV = 38.9 MJ/m3 or
HHV = 39.7 MJ/m3 (if CO2 is not included in the sale gas).

C5 +
C4 = 2.5 mole%

Product prices and royalties

Sales gas: 7.0 $/GJ and 30%
LPG: 240 $/m3 and 35%
C5+: 500 $/m3 and 38%
Sulphur: 30 $/t and 16%

Assume a sulphur recovery efficiency of 99.1%.

Assume that 4% of the sweet gas is consumed as fuel.

Answer the followings:

1. Draw a simple block diagram indicating the expected products from a
treating facility.
2. Determine the flow rates of each product stream and calculate the net
revenue from the products.
