LPG recovery from low-pressure gas

Robert A Mortko and Kevin L Currence, Black & Veatch

2008 / Gas

Low-pressure feed streams that were previously vented to flare or only used as fuel gas can now be economically processed, while also reducing plant carbon dioxide emissions and improving the quality of the plant fuel stream.

Curtailing refinery CO2 through H2 plant

 Sanjib Ratan and Roland van Uffelen, Technip

2008 / Gas

In addressing refinery CO2 management, some of the proven advanced solutions applied in the on-purpose hydrogen plants allow substantial CO2 curtailment through minimised 'involuntary'steam, internal heat recycle and captive integration.

Thermowells: performance under pressure

Andrew Dunbabin, ABB Ltd

2008 / Gas

Thermowells must be properly designed and specified to withstand the pressure and stresses in a gas processing environment.  Users should be aware of all the relevant standards, in order to guard against potentially disastrous failures.

Predicting densities of glycol solutions

Alireza Bahadori, National Iranian South Oil Company

Yasin Hajizadeh, Young Researchers Club

Saeid Mokhatab, Tehran Raymand Consulting Engineers

2008 / Gas

Two new approaches for accurately predicting densities of glycols are discussed, including a correlation developed as a function of temperature and glycol's weight percent in water, and an approach based on artificial neural network algorithms.
