	  abstract     = {The production and consumption of natural gas is on
the rise throughout the world as a result of its wide availability, ease
of transportation, use and clean-burning characteristics. The chief use
of ethane is in the chemical industry in the production of Ethene
(ethylene) by steam cracking. In this simulation, obtained ethane
recovery percent based on Gas sub-cooled process (GSP) is 99.9 by
mole that is included 32.1% by using de-methanizer column and
67.8% by de-ethanizer tower. The outstanding feature of this process
is the novel split-vapor concept that employs to generate reflux for
de-methanizer column. Remain amount of ethane in export gas cause
rise in gross heating value up to 36.66 MJ/Nm3 in order to use in
industrial and household consumptions.},
