MaCH4 - Fast, Efficient NGL Recovery

Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) Recovery Solution for gas fired engines at natural gas compression stations.

The MaCH4 NGL Recovery Solution is a proven, robust, and energy efficient gas separation solution developed and patented by Coldstream Energy. The MaCH4 delivers cryogenic-like recovery of NGLs to provide residue line quality gas without the expense of constructing a residue line. MaCH4 is a compact design with no rotating components or chemicals required to lower operating costs. A simple and economically compelling solution for maximizing NGL value, minimizing VOC emissions, and maximizing fee-based revenue for producers and gatherers, while also maximizing the efficiency and runtime of engines and respective compressors.

Benefits

  • Generate More NGL Revenue – Recover 60% C2and 95% C3+ heavy hydrocarbons on site, separating valuable NGLs, and boosting profits.
  • Maximize Compressor Station Capacity - MaCH4 units supply consistent fuel gas to maximize engine performance and throughput. MaCH4 can increase compression capacity without installing new compressors.
  • Reduce Operating Costs - Engines burning lean fuel gas supplied by MaCH4 units not only operate more efficiently, but they also operate cleaner and require less downtime for maintenance and repair.
  • Reduce Emissions - Using the pipeline quality fuel gas delivered by MaCH4 technology means your generating the lowest VOC emissions possible.
  • Simplify Permitting - Keep facility Potential to Emit (PTE) below Major Source emissions thresholds to avoid time-consuming and costly Title V Operating Permits to maximize revenue generating compression on site.

Benefits

  • Simple process for unattended operations that can be remotely monitored and controlled
  • Low maintenance with minimal operator intervention
  • Large 10:1 turndown ratio
  • Handles BTU swings from fluctuating feed gas compositions
  • Cryogenic-like recovery of NGLs without the low temperature requirements (no freeze issues)
  • Minimal power requirements (single phase)
  • Recovered heavy hydrocarbons remain in gaseous form - no liquids, no product storage tanks required)
  • Requires no chemical consumables to operate (i.e. methanol, glycol, lubricating oil)
  • Skid mounted and field transportable
  • Dehydrates the saturated feed gas and recovers heavy hydrocarbons in a single step process

Additional Emission Reduction Solutions

Methane emissions occur in all sectors of the natural gas industry, from production, through processing and transmission, to distribution. They primarily result from normal operations, routine maintenance, fugitive leaks, and system upsets. Archrock provides additional solutions to curb methane emissions at natural gas compression sites. Our solutions include the Carbon Hawk™ Methane Capture System and Ecotec Methane Monitoring.
