A process for separating natural gas constituents wherein a portion of the residue gas from the demethanizer column is cooled, expanded, partially condensed and recycled to the top of this column. This alters the chemical equilibrium in the column causing the lighter methane to vaporize and separate from the heavier constituents such as ethane, propane, etc. The lighter methane constituent rises and is removed from the top of the demethanizer column while the heavier constituents fall and are removed from the bottom of this column.
