    Mercaptans removal

    @georgeverghese Thanks. Sulfinol-X should remove H2S first; then RSH. We want the other way around.

    Mercaptans removal

    @georgeverghese I could only partially share some reasons. We are evaluating a technology for H2S removal; however, with high RSH, the equipment cost would be higher. If there is a technology could help reduce the RSH to lower level, overall,it might help to save the total cost.

    Mercaptans removal

    Hi moltenmetal, Your idea may eventually work, if just a little of H2S is captured by AC, it should be acceptable. Did you have any practical operating experience of capturing mercaptans with min. coadsorption of H2S?

    Mercaptans removal

    Does any one know if there are any technologies that have higher selectivity for mercaptans removal over H2S? For example, in the natural gas containing both H2S and mercaptans, I prefer to remove mercaptans first, then remove H2S later. But so far, I could not find a technology with no or...

    Tank Cleaning - Non Phenolic Sour water

    May be first steaming out H2S/NH3; test air inside with H2S <25% of LEL (or per local regulation); then air purge till O2 at same level as air or >19%vol (or per local regulation)

    Good concept, is it practical?

    Hi all, Glad to hear your comments. I recently got the introduction from a UK university about their invention for nanobubbling and wanted to apply in our company. Later, I googled more info about nano-bubbling and got the video made by Japanese institute, which I have posted here. It is not...

    Good concept, is it practical?

    The concept of nanobubbling in the linked video sounds good, mass transfer efficiency should be higher comparing with regular gas bubbling/diffusing devices; did anyone see any real successful applications? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIGNdO_tIMs Regards/Joe

    Volatile organic compounds Thermal oxidation in the CO2 atmospere

    CO2 is inert gas, could impact the conversion efficieny. Also need to confirm if the catalyst was used for such application with high CO2? did you try to lower the feed gas flow rate and/or higher O2% to see if any improvement? is the design confirmed which can ensure the gas even distriubtion...
