MERCURY REMOVAL

Mercury removal is a critical process in ensuring the safety and integrity of your gas and liquid streams. Our advanced mercury removal systems are designed to efficiently capture and eliminate mercury from hydrocarbons, preventing corrosion and protecting downstream equipment from damage. By using specialised adsorbents and tailored process solutions, we ensure that mercury levels are reduced to meet stringent industry standards and environmental regulations. Our focus on high efficiency and reliability in mercury removal helps you maintain the purity of your products, safeguard your infrastructure, and ensure safe and compliant operations in your processing facilities.

Technical Specifications

Performance Metrics

Removal Efficiency: Achieves up to 99.99% efficiency in removing mercury from natural gas, ensuring compliance with stringent environmental and safety standards.
Flow Rates: Designed to handle gas flow rates from 10 to 50,000 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM), making it suitable for a wide range of applications from small to large-scale operations.
Operating Pressure: Functions effectively under high-pressure conditions, typically ranging from 10 to 100 bar, ensuring seamless integration with existing processing facilities.
Contaminant Handling: Capable of removing multiple contaminants, including mercury, sulphur compounds, and other trace metals, enhancing overall gas purity.

Materials Used

Activated Carbon Beds: Utilises high-porosity activated carbon beds or specialised adsorbents to efficiently capture and retain mercury from gas streams.
Corrosion-Resistant Vessels: Constructed from stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloys to withstand harsh operating environments and extend the system's lifespan.
Advanced Filtration Media: Incorporates cutting-edge filtration media, designed to maximise mercury adsorption capacity while minimising pressure drop across the system.
Sealing and Gasket Materials: Equipped with high-performance gaskets and seals made from materials like PTFE or EPDM, ensuring leak-free operation under varying pressure and temperature conditions.

Applicable Environments

Natural Gas Processing Plants: Ideal for natural gas processing facilities, ensuring the removal of mercury before the gas enters downstream equipment, thus protecting critical infrastructure.
LNG Production Facilities: Essential for LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) plants, where mercury removal is critical to prevent contamination and ensure the quality of the final product.
Petrochemical Plants: Suitable for use in petrochemical production, where the removal of mercury and other contaminants is necessary to meet product purity requirements and protect catalysts.
Offshore and Onshore Gas Fields: Applicable in both offshore and onshore gas fields, offering robust and reliable mercury removal solutions in challenging and remote environments.
