BASF, XOM unveil new gas treating solution.

摘要

The two firms have unveiled their new highly energy efficiency gas treating solution, OASE~R sulfexx~(TM). BASF SE (Germany) and ExxonMobil Catalysts and Licensing LLC (US) state that OASE sulfexx is based on a new proprietary amine-based solvent that selectively removes H2S, while minimizing the co-absorption of CO2, from acid gas streams. OASE sulfexx may be applied in both refinery sulfur plants and NG treatment plants. For existing acid gas treatment plants OASE sulfexx can boost capacity while lowering operating costs. For new facilities, the technology can lower the size of the equipment and the initial capital investment compared to conventional amine gas treatment units.
