Abstract
A system and method of gas liquefaction having a compression sequence for a mixed refrigerant in which a mixing column is used to provide liquid and vapor product streams at least one step of the compression sequence in which a phase separation is desirable. In addition, the compression sequence may optionally or alternatively use a stripper column in at least one step in the compression sequence in which a phase separation is desirable.
