BENEFITS: |
• |
Reagglomeration creates optimal transport pores for faster adsorption. |
• |
A consistent, high quality product with a strongly adsorbing wide-range pore
structure optimal for the adsorption of a variety of degradation products and foam causing contaminants. |
• |
High mechanical strength and uniform transport pore distribution resulting
in excellent performance in a wide range of process conditions. |
• |
Hardness and abrasion resistance required for
environmentally friendly thermal reactivation and reuse and to minimize the generation of fines
in operations requiring backwashing or with intermittent flow patterns. |
|
|
|
APPLICATIONS:
Granular Activated Carbon used in the purification of recirculating amine streams,
in glycol dehydration units and gas purification units where amines are used for sour gas treatment. |
|
|
Warning
For safety and handling purposes, we recommend appropriate protective measures when entering a wet vessel
containing granular activated carbon, because wet activated carbon depletes oxygen from air and therefore,
dangerously low levels of oxygen may be encountered. In such a case, the oxygen level inside the vessel
shall be determined before entering and appropriate protective equipment should be worn when entering, or
leave the vessel open until the oxygen level in the vessel is normal. |

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS |
Typical Flow Rate Velocity:
|
10% slipstream of amine flow rate
4.0 gpm/sq.ft. (2.7 cm/sec) maximum
2.0 gpm/sq.ft. (1.4 cm/sec) typical |
|
Contact Time:
|
Vessel Material:
|
Typical Carbon Life:
|
Dependent on amine quality, filtration bag, or cartridge
filter—both upstream and downstream of carbon vessel. |
|
Typical Design:
|
Single vessel is typical, but dependent on amine flow rate.
Multiple vessels would be in parallel mode operation. |
|
NOTE:
|
An effective carbon system for amine purification should
include a properly designed and sized carbon vessel, pre- and
post-carbon mechanical filtration, and efficient carbon handling
equipment. The carbon system should be installed on the lean
side of the circulating amine stream. Experience has shown
that when rich side treatment is applied, the CO2 and H2S that
are absorbed by the amine can be released in the carbon bed.
This gas tends to form “bubbles” around the carbon granules
and inhibits the adsorption process. |
