SULFUR REMOVAL
Publication date:1Q 2009
Item#: B1023
The sulfur plant technology first addresses the latest sulfur market and developments and competition in the Market/Technology Trends & Opportunities section.
The State-of-the-Art-Technology section discusses numerous new and updated processes and solvents such as BASF's Puratreat R refinery gas purification solvent, Fluor's Selective Treating Regeneration Enhancement Process (STREP) for use in acid gas Removal, Claus unit burner technologies provided by Air Liquide (COBALT) and Duiker Combustion Engineers (COPE process), Fluor's Claus unit oxygen enrichment technology coupled with ammonia and BTX destruction processes, PROClaus offered by UOP/WorleyParsons, DuPont Clean Technolgies' LABSORB for Tail Gas Treating, the DynaWaveTM wet gas scrubbing process from MECS, Shell Global Solutions' low-temperature SCOT process, and the Rameshni Catalytic Thermal Incineration process presented by UOP/WorleyParsons. Sulfuric acid recovery/production applications are being offered by DuPont STRATCO and Haldor Topsøe. Before the sulfur product is shipped, there are Siirtec Nigi's liquid sulfur degassing process and finishing technologies offered by Enersul and Sandvik. Axens, BASF, Criterion Catalysts & Technologies, Haldor Topsøe, Jacobs, and UOP market their updated catalyst products. This section concludes with a discussion of process control and optimization technologies for various parts of the sulfur plant.
The Plant Operations and Practices section examines various day-to-day plant-related issues (e.g. corrosion, foaming and amine loss) as well as experiences in trouble-shooting (e.g. Claus unit shutdowns.) To find out the trends of refinery sulfur production around the world, unit installed capacity and recent construction activity information are summarized.
Finally, the R&D Alert! section examines latest patents and research endeavors relating to acid gas removal, Claus-based technology, and tail gas treating.
