AMINE SWEETENING
At ISS, we specialise in ensuring the purity and safety of natural gas through our expertise in amine sweetening. We are capable of providing effective solutions covering both adsorbtion and regeneration systems. This process is essential for removing hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) from gas streams, preventing corrosion and meeting stringent environmental and safety standards. Our advanced amine sweetening systems are designed to efficiently absorb these contaminants, allowing for the continuous production of clean, marketable natural gas. By optimising the regeneration of the amine solution, we ensure a sustainable and cost-effective operation.
