CONVERSION OF HYDROCARBON GAS AND BLENDING OF PRODUCT WITHFURTHER HYDROCARBON GAS, PROCESS:
(under the class definition) Process in which a normally gaseous hydrocarbon or gaseous mixture containing predominantly such hydrocarbon is subjected to a chemical reaction and a normally gaseous hydrocarbon or gaseous mixture is mixed with the reaction product.
(1) Note. The unreacted hydrocarbon gas may have the same composition as the gas fed to the reaction or a different composition.
(2) Note. The process often has for its purpose the lowering of the BTU value of a batch of natural gas, which is split, one part treated, and recombined.
