Petroleum & Gas Purification
Petroleum & Gas Purification
Activated carbon is a crucial component in the purification of petroleum products, natural gas, and refinery gases, ensuring compliance with stringent quality standards and environmental regulations.
Recovery of Valuable Products
Activated carbon plays a vital role in the recovery of economically valuable products from petroleum refineries, such as gasoline vapors, benzene, and solvents. ICGL & ACPL manufactures activated carbon with high working capacities specifically designed for these applications. It serves as the optimal adsorbent for the removal of hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) during the processing of sour crude oil in refineries
Applications
- Petrochemical industry
- gas purification
- removal of sulfur compounds and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Natural Gas Purification
Petroleum industry by-products, including greenhouse gases and pollutants like nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, VOCs, and heavy metals, contribute to air and water pollution. Activated carbon is employed to prevent environmental contamination caused by these contaminants
Scope of Applications of AC
- Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) control
- Vapor/solvent recovery
- H2S removal
- Wastewater treatment
- Groundwater remediation
- Amine purification
- Decolorization
- Mercury removal
Petroleum Sweetening
Petroleum sweetening is a crucial process at refineries aimed at removing unwanted sulfur compounds. It encompasses the drying and sweetening of a wide range of intermediate and finished products such as gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, and sour gases. The treatment of sulfur compounds improves color, odor, and oxidation stability, while also reducing carbon dioxide concentrations. ICGL & ACPL offers high-grade activated carbon specifically designed for petroleum sweetening systems.
Scope of Applications :
- Hydrogen sulfide removal
- Thiophene removal
- Mercaptan removal
Activated carbon from AquaCarb Global LLC provides reliable and efficient solutions for the purification of petroleum and gas streams. Its high adsorption capacity and effectiveness in removing sulfide compounds and VOCs contribute to the production of cleaner and higher-quality products while minimizing environmental impact.
