Cofiring Technology for Lean Acid Gas

Possibility for treatment of lean acid gases at SRU inlet: below

50 % of H2S

• AGE could be used to increase H2S content: High OPEX and

CAPEX

• PROSERNAT propose cofiring instead of AGE to overcome flame

stability issues.

Cofiring Technology for Lean Acid Gas

The key features of cofiring technology are:

• Excellent burning of Acid Gas Feed and Fuel Gas with

PROSERNAT proprietary burner

• Complete destruction of BTX and mercaptans

• No sulphur losses in AGE: all sulphur species are routed to SRU

• No heating requirement compared to AGE: Low OPEX

Cofiring: PROSERNAT Burner technology

Conventional cofiring technology

• The burner makes a single and compact

flame

• The additional fuel gas is often supplied

in the center of the burner and injected in

the acid gas

• The fuel gas combustion is carried out

under sub-stoechiometric conditions

causing :

• Unburnt HC ,

• Soot emissions

• COS/CS2 increase

PROSERNAT cofiring technology

• The additional fuel gas is supplied

peripherally and injected in the air

• The acid gas is supplied through a

double impulse acid gas injector

• Staged combustion which fits with the

Claus combustion / reaction kinetics

• First stage : fuel-gas combustion in air

excess

• Second stage : H2S Combustion

• Third stage : Claus reaction (H2S + SO2)

Direct Oxydation SmartSulf™ Process

Key Features :

• The SmartSulf™ Catalytic Oxidation process can be applied in:

• Single Reactor configuration for a typical 90% sulphur recovery

• Two Reactors configuration for a typical 99.5% sulphur recovery

• The Gas can be treated at low pressure or up to typically 80 bar

• Typical applications are desulfurization of Light Hydrocarbon streams,

biogas, Shale gas, Gasification Gas, with H2S content up to 15% mol.

• Because the process is dry, with no hot points, it is particularly suitable for

offshore applications on barge or platforms.

• Due to its simplicity the availability proved to be continuously very high (1st

plant operating since 1993)

• Low maintenance cost

• Very low operating cost

• Fully automatic operation

• No by-products

Troubleshooting Activities

• Thanks to a very high level of expertise in Sulphur Recovery,

PROSERNAT has many times helped customers to improve

operation of their Sulphur Blocks(Corrosion reduction, Stabilization of

operation, Improvement of control system…)

• The basis of such troubleshooting activities is:

• Site survey by PROSERNAT experts with forced runs of the Units

• Analysis and redaction of an operational reports containing

recommendations to improve reliability and operation of the Unit

• Examples of current customers for troubleshooting activities :

46

Content of the study

• Thanks to a very high level of expertise in Sulphur Recovery,

PROSERNAT has many times helped customers to improve

operation of their Sulphur Blocks (Amine Units, Sour water Stripper

Units, Claus Units, Tail Gas Treatment Units, Sulphur Degassing,

Incineration, Granulation…)

• The main topics of such studies could be:

• Stabilization of operation

• Improvement of recovery yield / reduction of emissions

• Improvement of Unit availability / On stream factor

• Debottlenecking report

• Chemical consumption reduction

• Catalyst

• Corrosion issues review

• …

47

• Full diagnostic of your sulphur block by a first class licensor

• Clear picture of necessary modification on the Unit

• Possibility to contract PROSERNAT for further basic and detail

engineering, as well as procurement activities

• Study in PROSERNAT offices of the unit design documentation

• Site survey by PROSERNAT experts with forced runs of the Units

• Analysis and redaction of an operational reports containing

recommendations to improve reliability and operation of the Unit

Protocole and benefits

The basis of such troubleshooting activities is:

The main benefits to customers are:

48

Example of a recent success

Description of the operating issue

• The SRU is installed in a chemical plant receiving large amount of

H2S in batch mode

• Typical issues faced in operation where:

• High fluctuations of H2S to SO2 ratio linked to a bad control of air inlet

flowrate

• Reduced performances with environmental issues

• Corrosion of downstream Tail Gas Treatment Unit

In 2010, PROSERNAT had been awarded for the

troubleshooting activities of such SRU with objective to

solve these major operating issues

49

Example of a recent success

The main steps of the study where:

• Step 1: Technical audit of the operating SRU on site, with trend

records

• Step 2: Redaction of a report with recommendation containing

• A new calculation formulae for air inlet flowrate control

• Some new specifications for feedstock flowrate control valves.

• Other recommendations to solve day to day operating issues (Vibrations,

Instrument blanketing,…)

• Step 3: Integration of these recommendations by our Client in the

Plant,

• Step 4: New site survey which had concluded to the complete

success of these modifications to solve the problem

• Step 5: Award of PROSERNAT, with no competition, for the

basic engineering, and detail engineering follow-up of the

debottlenecking of this SRU for environmental performance

increase
