Remunerative Solvent Recovery

It is a process of purifying the solvents, which are used for several industrial applications but after usage, is contaminated with toxic substances which are harmful for environment. During disposal, solvents such as xylene, acetone and methanol need to treat, as they contain harmful chemicals. Solvent recovery is an economical method, which saves time and money which was previously required to treat the solvents, before dumping.

Buying new solvents and bearing solvent disposal costs too, is not indeed a good idea. Governments around the world are strict on eco system degradation and keeps on changing the norms for industries, in order to devise a healthy planet. Therefore it is mandatory for chemical and oil industries to apply best disposal methods. Solvent recovery stands as a perfect choice for reducing discarding costs. Esteemed industries are following each and every essential step, for treating wastes obtained from certain process. However this increases the process cost, whereas solvent reclaiming is an efficient and economical method, specially designed on reuses and recycle concept.

Traditionally several methods are used for solvent recovery such as distillation, drying, evaporation and filtration. With the improvement in technology, various other compression methods are introduced and used successfully. In addition to compression, vacuum compression emerges as a reliable technique which makes recovery of solvent less costly and more efficient. Solvent retrieval is a cost effective process, which saves industries resources and it works in accordance with government guidelines and norms. This method helps in reducing pollution and it is profitable for our environment.

Scrupulous Gas Processing

Gas processing is a method of separating impurities, fluids and hydrocarbon from raw gas. Natural gas has enormous usage. It is used as fuel in various commercial and industrial applications. Treatment of natural gas is a gradual process. Natural gas is obtained either from oil fields or from non oil fields. It’s sometimes found in coal fields. Not all impurities present in natural gas are worthless some have good economic cost. These are processed separately and sold.

Crude gas contains water and condensate which is removed before transporting it to processing plant. On reaching processing plant initial purification disembarks. Acidic gasses such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide are removed by Amine treatment. Currently Polymeric membranes are used to separate impurities from raw gas.

Crude gas obtained after gas processing has to meet certain standard dispose by distinguished companies. Sulfuric acid and elemental sulfur are devised from the residual hydrogen and CO2 in sulfur recovery unit .The next process after removal of acidic gasses is the separation of water vapors. This is rendered either by using regeneration process or by glycol dehydration. Mercury and nitrogen is removed afterwards by distillation process.

Natural gas liquids are recovered after separating mercury and nitrogen. NGL is delivered to several gas pipeline and the charges are incurred according to the quality of NGL delivered. The recovered gas liquids are then routed to fractional train where propane, butane and ethane are produced. These gases are sweetened through distinguished sweetened units. The final product then formed is delivered to end users.
