Improving Gas Separation Efficiency with Advanced Filter Separators

Pro-Gas Services

Instead, it is a complex mixture often saturated with water vapor, entrained liquid hydrocarbons (condensate), and solid particulates like sand, rust, and drilling debris. Following manufacturer guidelines for filter life is crucial. The precise separation capability truly complements the evolution of natural gas dehydrators.

Understanding the Technical Aspects of Vapor Recovery Units

Pro-Gas Services

Condensation and Separation Condensation is a common method for recovering hydrocarbon vapors, particularly in applications involving volatile liquids. VRUs employ heat exchangers and condensers to cool the vapor stream, causing the hydrocarbons to condense into a liquid phase. Q: How do VRUs work?

New EPA Air Toxics Rule Afflects Facilities with TEG Dehydrators

The Energy Law

The control devices must: (1) reduce HAP emissions by 95 percent or more (generally by a condenser with a flash tank); or (2) reduce HAP emissions to an outlet concentration of 20 ppmv or less (for combustion devices); or (3) reduce benzene emissions to a level less than 0.90
