Hi,
how can be solved the case of sour crude ship loading? Active carbons have problems with sour gas... has anyone experiance?
Thanks

How about combusting this vapor from the ship at one or more of the fired heaters in your plant with dedicated ship vapor return burners at each fired heater ? You can add a booster blower in the return line if you need some more pressure??

I'm thinking about an active carbon unit (two beds) and an absorber to recover condensate, but there is high content of hydrogen sulphide...
Combustioning in existing furnaces isn't prefered.

do the same as with propane unloading, install a vapor return line.
