In dispersed gas units gas bubbles are dispersed in the total stream either by the use of an inductor device or by a vortex set…
It should be clear from the description of LTX units that the lower pressure separator in an LTX unit is a simple form of cold-feed…
Contactor column usually contain either tray random packing or structure packing. For large volume of gas, the contactor is usually a tray column consisting of…
Several proprietary processes have been developed based on the hot carbonate system with an activator or catalyst. These activators increase the performance of the hot…
In long horizontal vessels it is necessary to install wave breakers, which are nothing more than vertical baffles spanning the gas-liquid interface and perpendicular to…
Vessel Supports Small vertical vessels may be supported by angle support legs, as shown in Figure 12-11. Larger vertical vessels are generally supported by a…
These units are designed to allow hydrates to form and to melt them with the heat of the incoming gas stream before they can plug…
Hydrocyclone separators, sometimes called enhanced gravity separators, use centrifugal force to remove oil droplets from oily water. As shown in Figure 7-16, static hydrocyclone separator…
A pipe that releases gas to disperse into the atmosphere is called a vent. If the gas is burned at the tip, it is called…
The droplet diameter is the most important single parameter to control to aid in water settling since this term is squared in the settling equation.…
