The Problem
Amine solutions used in gas processing and oil refining can become contaminated due to the formation of heat stable salts (HSS).
Problems caused by HSS
- Corrosion byproducts cause foaming and solids loading on filters.
- HSS directly cause increased foaming.
- HSS “bind” with free amine which reduces the amount available to absorb acid gases (H2S and CO2).
- Corrosion breaks down and shortens the life of the amine circuit, while also releasing solids into the amine.
The Solution
- Dispose and replace contaminated amine chemistry – partially or completely.
OR
- Purify the amine chemistry by removing only the contamination.
