    Steam Relief Valve Discharge Pipework

    Hi, I was wondering if someone could give their thoughts on the following. I have calculated the back pressure on a steam relief valve on the discharge side of the valve. The relief valve is 4" x 6" relief valve with a set-point of 58 barg and rated capacity of 69,000 kg/h at 410 deg.C inlet...

    Relief Design

    I have two quick questions (or sanity checks). 1. Am I correct in thinking that pipework, silencers etc on the discharge side of a relief valve should be sized using the un-derated flow of the relief valve and NOT the derated flow? 2. When the relief case is from a single pressure reducing...

    High Temperature gas compression

    Hi, Are there gas compressors on the open market (UK if poss) that can fulfil the following duty. Inlet pressure: ~20 mbarg Oulet pressure: 2,000mbarg Flow: 2,500 Nm3/h Fluid: off gas (51% N2, 18% CO, 12% CO2, 17% H2, 2% CH4) Inlet temperature 500 deg.C Thanks in anticipation of a quick...

    NGL Mercury Removal

    DOes anyone know of other technologies for mercury removal other than adsorption. We are looking to install mercury removal equipment after an NGL liquid feed dehydrator and before the de-ethaniser tower. The design conditions are roughly: Flow = 300m3/h Pressure= 30-35barg Temperature=...

    Relief Valve Discharge Pipework Pressure Drop

    I am currently designing a relief valve discharge pipework for a steam line. Please could someone tell me if the following is true: The flowrate used for the discharge pipe sizing should be at least the Certified Discharge Capacity of the relief valve (I know some would use the un-derated...

    Steam Traps on Desuperheaters

    Has anyone had any experience in sizing steam traps after a desuperheating station on steam lines. My logically thinking is that the trap (or traps) should be sized to drain water that may be inject by the spraywater system as follows: 1. As in our case the steam flow is not constant and there...
