SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REMOVING NITROGEN DURING LIQUEFACTION OF NATURAL GAS

Abstract:

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for removing nitrogen during liquefaction of natural gas. In one implementation, a nitrogen rejection unit is used in an LNG facility to remove nitrogen from natural gas during an LNG liquefaction process. The nitrogen rejection unit contains at least two columns and at least one 3-stream condenser, 2-stream condenser or a two 2-stream condenser.
