Abstract:

In the present work, a fundamentally new direction based on carrying out of photochemical processes in stream of gas with the use of high power sources of VUV radiation is considered. In this work, results of investigations of VUV irradiation of native natural gas (wave-length λ = 172 nm) in a flow photo reactor (mode of throttling) are given. In trade conditions (pressure of gas in a trade chink 80 bar) was investigated, in a mode throttling, influence UV of radiation (λ = 172 nm) on phase transitions in the natural gas, containing steams of water. It is shown, that processing of gas stream UV by irradiation leads to increase in an exit of a condensate by 2-16 times and to reduction of concentration of water by 11 times (the dew-point changes by 17 °С).
