Mercury is removed from crude oils, natural gas condensates and other liquid hydrocarbons by first removing colloidal mercury and solids that contain adsorbed mercury and then treating the hydrocarbons with an organic or inorganic compound containing at least one sulfur atom reactive with mercury. The sulfur compound reacts with dissolved mercury that contaminates the hydrocarbons to form mercury-containing particulates that are then removed from the hydrocarbons to produce a purified product having a reduced mercury content. Preferably, the treating agent is an organic sulfur-containing compound such as a dithiocarbamate or sulfurized isobutylene.

A process and catalyst for the partial oxidation of low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbons, such as methane, ethane, propane, naphtha, and natural gas condensates to form alkenes, such as ethylene, propylene and other valuable by-products. The process involves contacting the low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbon with the catalyst in the presence of oxygen or air and optionally steam. The catalyst has a perovskite-type crystalline structure, and lends itself to fixed and fluidized bed reactor configurations. The conversion process is less costly than conventional processes due to low pressure operation, the use of air and steam as a source of oxygen, and lower operating temperatures resulting in less coking, downtime, and reduced cost for materials of construction. Catalyst activity is extended and reactor downtime for catalyst regeneration is minimized by addition of chlorides and/or amines.

The invention relates to a natural-gas condensed-liquid recovery method using mixed light hydrocarbon as a refrigerant, which comprises the following steps of: 1) separating low-temperature mixed light hydrocarbon from raw-material gas which is rich in liquefied-gas components; and 2) using one part of the separated low-temperature mixed light hydrocarbon as the refrigerant to enter a system for circulation, enabling the other part of the separated low-temperature mixed light hydrocarbon to enter a condensed-liquid stabilizing tower for stabilization, and using condensed liquid at the tower bottom of the condensed-liquid stabilizing tower as a product to exit from a device for recovery after being stabilized.
