As & Hg & total sulfur removal
As & Hg & total sulfur removal
(OP)
Hi,I have BIG PROBLEM:
My question is related to As & Hg & total sulfur removal from ethane gas. Ethane Feed has above impurity and should be routed to Olefin plant (the feed flow rate is 180,000Kg/hr), therefore all impurity should be removal before the plant.I know they should be removed by catalyst but i haven't any information about the catalyst.Is there any one to help me ? Please send me your reply as soon as possible. Thank in advance.

RE: As & Hg & total sulfur removal
I think you should be able to remove sulfur from ethane with a ZnO bed.
Hg can be removed by e.g. CMG273 from Axens (former Procatalyse).
Axens have different As traps, not sure which one is suitable for ethane.
Contact Axens or any other cat vendor to know more about process conditions to see what exact cat types and hardware you would need for your specific situation. Not sure if you can squeeze all 3 in one vessel.
