    Flow to parallel separators - flow regime

    We have 2 separators operating in parallel - with symmetrical piping etc. However, we experience a 1 : 2 liquid flow distribution at approximately same gas rates, despite the u/s symmetrical piping arrangement. The control system aims to control the vapour outlet flow from the vessel seeing...

    Purge velocities in Horizontal flares

    Hi Is there any publication / guideline / industry practise for purge rates to be maintained in Horizontal flares (always lit)? Are any provisions made to address change in direction of wind /gusts in such conditions ? Thanks Bala

    Water quality for Fogging (GT's)

    Hi I have a problem with power not being available at the GT's during hot summer days. Fogging has been suggested to improve the situation. The required water quality is the (traditional !) DMW with < 10 ppm of TDS, <3 SiO2, pH bet 6.5 to 7.5, conductance < 11x10^(-6) mho/cm. I have the...

    Absorption Column performance

    In a (Hydrocarbon gas) Dehydration column using TEG as absorbant, generally a 5 deg C superheat is maintained on TEG over the inlet gas temperature to prevent Hydrocarbon condensation. We have a higher differential (gas temp is still practically just a deg C up on its inlet...so not much TEG...

    TEG dehydration in Sour gas dehydration

    Does any operator have direct experience with degradation of TEG in Sour gas dehydration - dark non-settling colour that is not filterable / adsorbable in charcoal filters ? H2S is in <0.1% range, CO2 upto 6%, Contactor operating at 27 bar / 18 deg C; REgen at 204 deg C max. Please also give...

    Maximum allowable pressure for 300# A105 flanges

    We have a client who has given us a 50 bara / 80 deg C design pressure, which unfortunately is pushing the entire plant into 600# category from 300#, and hence the costs. A typical consultant (vs) engineer confusion ! Can some one advise what to do ? I know as an engineer( ...!!) that I can...
