What is the Impact of Feed Gas Conditions on the Adsorption Dehydration System?

October 5, 2015
 |  Tip of the Month
Adsorption dehydration units can reduce the water content of a gas stream to less than 0.1 ppmv. The gas industry normally uses adsorption dehydration units upstream of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant or a deep natural gas liquid (NGL) extraction plant where the gas temperature reduces to less than -160 °C (-256 °F) and -100 °C (-148 °F), respe...

Gas-Liquid Separators Sizing Parameter

September 3, 2015
 |  Tip of the Month
In this Tip of the Month (TOTM), we will focus on the application of Souders-Brown approach in gas-liquid separators and present diagram, simple correlations and tables to estimate the Souders-Brown equation constant, KS (the so called sizing parameter). We will consider both vertical and horizontal gas-liquid separators. Knowing the actual gas flo...

Effect of Relative Density (Specific Gravity) on the Saturated Water Content of Sweet Natural Gases

August 3, 2015
 |  Tip of the Month
In this Tip of the Month (TOTM), we will study the effect of relative density (Specific Gravity, SG) on the saturated water content of sweet natural gases. The results of this study include the water content of sweet natural gases as a function of relative density in the range of 0.60 to 0.80. Four temperatures of 4.4, 23.9, 37.8 and 149 °C (40, 7...
