and natural gas often contain high levels ofhur that require removal (sweetening) iner to lower the environmental impact andase value. Amine systems are commonlyloyed to perform this "sweetening."
ine systems become contaminated with organicinorganic solids that cause severe foaming in thetactor and stripper, resulting in poor systemormance. Filtration systems are challenged toide safe operation (eliminate personnel H2S exposure)efficient solids removal. (0.5-20 micron filtration)

Tubular Backwashing Amine Filtration SystemsContinuous Duty, High Flow Rates
FSD Tubular Backwashing AmineFiltration Systems offer continuous andself-cleaning operation throughsequential backwashing of individualfilter elements. They eliminate thehazards and costs associated with bag andcartridge filter replacement. In addition,isolating the amine from the backwashwater through the use of control andnitrogen purge limits the COD load towaste treatment.High Pressure HousingsTotal Range of Control OptionsFlanged, Removable Filter ElementsFire Safe Features including ANSIflanged valves and double acting, springretum actuators
