الملخص الإنجليزي

Natural gas may consider the most popular fossil fuel in the current era.

In fact, natural gas possess several advantages over the other fossil fuel types for example, it has a high heating value.

Moreover, natural gas exists in deep underground reservoirs under certain temperature and pressure.

Therefore, it may contain several non-hydrocarbon components such as hydrogen sulphide and carbon dioxide.

These undesirable components can cause several technical problems for instance, corrosion and environmental pollution.

Therefore, raw sour natural gas that contents considerable amounts of H2S and CO2 should be sweetened to reduce or remove the acid gases from the natural gas stream.

This being the case, this study is aimed to simulate an amine sweetening process that examine a given natural gas stream.

Additionally, the simulation work will examine the effects of amine circulation rate on the solvent losses from the amine contractor tower.

Indeed, amine losses from the sweetening process can cause several technical problems for example, environmental pollution, effects the process reboiler duty, increase the corrosion rate in the sweetening process and increase the sweetening plant operation cost.

The simulation work has been achieved by ProMax simulator and the study found that the amine circulation rate could possess a relationship with the amount of emitted amine from amine contactor tower.
