    Allowable Dimensions for Flush Type Cleanout under API 650

    Hi all! This is a simple question: A flush type cleanout connection with the next dimensions: Width: 24" Height: 36" can be allowed by API 650? That set of dimensions are not in the tables of the standard. However, standard 650 in paragraph 3.7.7.1 states that: '....When a size...

    FLARING GAS RECYCLE SYSTEM

    HI ALL! We are about to design a flaring gas recycling system for a LPG plant. It will include a low suction pressure compressor attached to the flare header downstream KOD and upstream the flare. Also, a water seal liquid is going to be installed before flare in order to avoid backflow at very...

    Liquid ring pump sizing

    Hi All! I have designed a system for deareating 170 m3/h of river water from 13 to 0.7 ppm of oxygen. This system consists of a deoxygenation tower (Operating pressure 70 mbara) and a liquid ring pump. I've found that it is necessary to extract abt 6 Kg/h of gas/vapor from the water stream to...

    Vacuum deoxygen column design

    Hi all! I'm trying to dimension a vacuum deoxygen column to pretreat 170 m3/h of river water to be injected in an oilfield. The oxygen and other dissolved gases are removed from water by means of vacuum generated with a liquid ring pump. The process is carried out at 25ºC and 35 mmHg (abs)...

    Ovelap Backup Design

    Hi All! Recently I found a conceptual description of a Wastewater treatment plant where "Overlap Backup Design" is mentioned as a philosophy of design. From that philosophy it is proposed to install two parallel separation trains wich includes: coalescer, flotation unit and filter. Each train...

    Dehydration of carbon dioxide for oil field injection

    Hi All! We have a gas with the next approximate mole composition: CO2 90.0% C1 9.0% CN 0.9% H2S 0.1% Pressure 80 Kg/cm2g Temperature at gas pipeline inlet 50 ºC. It is desired to inject this gas in an oilfield. Do you have any idea if a moisture content of 9 lb/MMscfm is convenient...

    Indirect Fired Heater Design

    Hi All! I'm just trying to verify the actual capacity of a indirect fired heater API 12K type. API 12K only gives a general guidance based on "standard capacities" from 100M to 1.5 MM btu/h After following a laboriuos method to find heat transfer coefficients at the fire tube side, and...
