SPEAKER
Ralph Neumann – Midstream Process Engineering Consultant
AGENDA
Transporting and processing of natural gas requires that the feed and products meet established specifications for water, sulfur, inerts, and other contaminants. Gas dehydration and amine treating for sulfur and carbon dioxide removal are important unit operations in virtually all modern gas processing facilities.
Water and dehydration topics include:
- Prediction of water content and hydrate formation
- Hydrate inhibition
- Water removal using glycols
- Mole Sieve dehydration
Gas treating options will be surveyed, but primary attention will be paid to amine treating and the characteristics and performance of popular amines such as MDEA (generic and activated), DGA, and DEA.
Remaining sessions of this 5-part series Overview of Gas Processing include:
- April – Separation, Refrigeration, & Moderate Gas Plant Recovery Designs
- May – Expander Plants, Condensate Stabilization and Fractionation
