The description relates to a process for drying damp gas, especially natural gas, and a corresponding device. The damp gas is subjected to a treatment process in which it is first adiabatically expanded and then set into turbulent flow in a rotationally symmetrical centrifugal field, whereby, owing to the Hilsch effect, a stream of hot and a stream of cold gas are formed which are discharged separately. A drying agent is added to the natural gas before and/or during the process. After the process, the drying agent containing liquid is removed from the cold and/or hot gas streams in a further step in the process. The central component of the device is a cyclone tube (10) closed along its cylindrical jacket (13). There is at least one device (61, 62, 65) for the supply of drying agent connected to the supply line and/or the eddy chamber of the cyclone tube (10). The cold and/or hot gas line (11, 12) is connected to a gas-liquid separator (40) to separate the liquid phase.

L'invention concerne un procédé de séchage de gaz humide, notamment de gaz naturel, ainsi qu'un dispositif approprié. Le gaz humide est soumis à un processus de traitement au cours duquel il subit d'abord une détente adiabatique, puis est ensuite mis en écoulement turbulent dans un champ centrifuge à symétrie de rotation, d'où il résulte, en raison de l'effet Hilsch, un courant de gaz chaud et un courant de gaz froid qui sont extraits séparément. Un produit desséchant est ajouté au gaz naturel avant et/ou pendant le processus de traitement. Le produit desséchant chargé en liquide est éliminé du courant de gaz chaud et/ou du courant de gaz froid après le processus de traitement, dans une autre étape du procédé. L'élément central du dispositif est un tube à cyclone (10) fermé le long de son enveloppe cylindrique (13). Il est prévu au moins un dispositif (61, 62, 65) pour acheminer le produit desséchant, qui est raccordé à la conduite d'alimentation et/ou à la chambre de tourbillonnement du tube à cyclone (10). La conduite de gaz froid et/ou la conduite de gaz chaud (11, 12) sont/est raccordée(s) à un séparateur gaz-liquide (40) servant à séparer la phase liquide.
