ABSTRACT:
Natural gas containing mercury is treated for liquifaction by contacting it with alkali and amine treating units to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. The amine and alkali treating units also contain sulfur in reacted form. This serves to guard downstream equipment against failure of upstream mercury-removing equipment, namely sulfur, on a selected support.
