The LNG industry is poised to expand worldwide as new natural gas discoveries and production technologies compliment increasing demand for gas as a low-emissions fuel. With the discovery of new reserves come new challenges, such as how to treat gas produced from shale rock—a topic of particular interest for the growing shale gas industry in the US. The Gas Processes 2012 handbook addresses this technology topic and updates many others. The handbook includes new technologies for shale gas treating, synthesis gas production and treating, LNG and NGL production, hydrogen generation, and others. Additional technology topics covered include drying, gas treating, liquid treating, effluent cleanup and sulfur removal. To maintain as complete a listing as possible, the Gas Processes 2012 handbook is available on CD-ROM and at our website for paid subscribers. Additional copies may be ordered from our website.

Monnery Xergy Processing Inc., Calgary, Alberta, Canada [email protected] Keywords: H2S abatement the H2S quantity is above about 100 – 200 kg/d due to the high operating cost associated with replacement and ABSTRACT disposal of the non-regenerable chemical. A serious problem that occurs in geothermal steam power projects is the emission of hydrogen sulfide. This problem 1.2 New H2S Abatement Technology is not easily rectifiable and as a result, the geothermal steam industry has a need for H2S abatement technology that is In the geothermal industry, most of the same technology as suitable and economic for use in geothermal steam the petroleum industry has been considered as well as facilities. Current technology has proven to have high limestone-gypsum technology. Unfortunately, existing capital and/or operating costs and some processes are technology has shown to have relatively high capital and difficult to operate. operating costs and often produces byproducts (waste streams) and poor quality products that are difficult and In answer to the requirement for new technology and for expensive to dispose of (Nagl, 2003; Takahashi and companies to be environmentally responsible, Xergy Kuragaki, 2000). Processing Inc. has developed a gas phase direct oxidation process for treating H2S in the range of 0.1 to 20 t/d which As a result, there is a need for a technology with lower has several applications. The process is ideally suited for capital and operating costs that produces a saleable quality H2S abatement in geothermal power processes.

  • The Sour Gas, Sulfur and Acid Gas Book
    The Sour Gas, Sulfur and Acid Gas Book Technology and Application in Sour Gas Production, Treating and Sulfur Recovery (SI Units) Edward Wichert (www.grayjay.ventures) Preface The objective of The Sour Gas, Sulfur and Acid Gas Book is to describe the historical development and current applications of the procedures and processes used in the sour natural gas industry to safely produce, gather and treat sour gas, recover sulfur and dispose of waste products in an environmentally friendly manner. The production of sour natural gas in large volumes started in the 1950’s at Jumping Pound, Alberta, and at Lacq, France, and grew rapidly in the following years in Canada and the United States. This required the development of new technologies to handle the production and processing of the sour gas so that it could be used for industrial and domestic purposes. The evolution of improvements in metallurgy for sour gas, well completion techniques, sour gas treating methods and the increases in sulfur recovery efficiency can be traced by reviewing the papers published in the technical literature or presented at various gatherings of industry experts, such as the Laurance Reid Gas Conditioning Conference (LRGCC) held annually near the end of February in Norman, Oklahoma. Up to about the mid-1950’s the topics at such technical conferences dealt mainly with research on natural gas properties and natural gas dehydration. Since that time, the papers dealing with various improvements in sour gas treating and enhancements in sulfur recovery outnumber all other topics at the LRGCC. Currently (2018) the main sour gas developments are taking place in the Middle East, where a major technical conference on Sour Oil and Gas Advanced Technology (SOGAT) takes place annually.

  • Tail Gas Treatment of Sour- SEWGS CO2 Product
    Tail gas treatment of sour- SEWGS CO2 product H.A.J. van Dijk Juni 2012 ECN-E--12-025 Acknowledgement This literature review has been performed as part of the EDGaR Effect of impurities in C02 on the CCTS chain optimisation project (proj.nr. 5.0889). Abstract This literature review covers the technologies suitable for the CO2-H2S separation within the context of CO2 purification of a pre-combustion captured stream intended for storage or reuse. The technologies considered cover existing industrially applied processes, emerging processes as well as processes in development. Several technologies capable of achieving the desired CO2-H2S separation were identified. Among them are liquid scrubbing processes Thiopaq and CrystaSulf producing elemental sulphur, selective oxidation to elemental sulphur such as MODOP or based on novel catalysts and sorbent-based (reactive) separations using low-, medium- or high-temperature (reactive) sorbents.
