COMPRESSED GAS PRODUCTION PLANT
Gas is compressed into bottles for Industrial use.
Gas is compressed as part of an industrial process.
These compressors can entrain water or oil into the gas.
Examples :
Compressed CO2, H2 and CO – after compressing synthesis gas at 4,500 PSIG the...

COMPRESSED PLANT AIR
Air is compressed on site for instruments, power tools etc.
These compressors can entrain water or oil into the air.
Up to 70,000 mg/m3 of oil and/or water can be present.
PROBLEMS TO SOLVE
Contamination of air quality.
Water or oil in compressed air...

Asphalt
Asphalt is used for road surfacing and also for producing coated protective sheeting materials. Air pollution problems arise from hot vent vapour from Asphalt storage tanks or fugitive vapours from loading it into trucks / wagons. In the coating process, there are environmental problems from the Asphalt saturator &...

TITANIUM DIOXIDE / CHLORIDE PROCESS – HYDROCHLORIC ACID FILTRATION
Hydrochloric Acid can be emitted from many industrial processes, where it is either used in that form, or generated from the process.
HCl will usually be in fine, sub-micron mist form.
The gas comes from the process or vapours...

The Fractionator is fed from the reactor and side strippers are injected with steam. Naphtha and Light Cycle Oil are produced.
In a Pipestill, fed from a crude furnace, the side strippers produce Jet A, Gas Oil and Diesel or Heavy Gas Oil.
PROBLEMS TO SOLVE
a) Prevent...

The Vacuum Unit is fed with Crude Bottoms and is injected with steam. Passing upwards through wash oil stages, the gas exits to an overhead condenser, where cleaned gas goes to LT Ends, and Naphtha and Light Cycle Oil are produced as liquids.
From side streams the Vacuum...

In (UOP) Merox Units, where crudes are acidic, Caustic is used to reduce H2S traces and the Mercaptan Sulphur content. Caustic Treating Systems are done with a Pre-Washer followed by a Reactor vessel.
The mixture is then fed to a liquid-liquid separator to remove the water and caustic from...

COALESCERS
Coalescers in Cylinder Form
Today, two stage filter separator technology allows you to have the smallest possible vessel diameter, resulting in the lowest cost, while removing aerosol liquids and solid particles efficiently. The separator’s first stage contains replaceable BCE-GLP coalescing filters mounted on a tube sheet. Here the larger...
