Abstract
In an absorption process utilizing a feed gas compressor, the absorption pressure is maximized within the constraints of the system by a computer controller that automatically increases the pressure until a constraint for compressor speed or absorption pressure is encountered. The control action coordinately manipulates compressor speed and the absorption pressure in response to the actual compressor suction pressure to achieve the desired result.
