Chloride Removal
Innovative Absorbent Technology Manufactured in Alvin, TX
Zeolite-Based Absorbents
CLS Revolutionizing chloride removal in oil refineries, CLS Industrial Purification provides absorbent systems featuring:
- Vari-Zeo™ - variable cell zeolite possessing a specific distribution of cell sizes and shapes selected for each application
- Total Cl removal
- Species specific Cl removal
- Longer cycle lengths due to high Cl loadings of up to 44 wt% Cl at 66 lbs/ft3
- Non-hazardous discharged spent absorbent making cost efficient disposal in class II land fill
This application is around the catalytic reformer (CCR) in oil refineries. HCl, λ-RCl and β-RCl are taken out from reformer H2 gas and reformate liquid. CLS Industrial Purification produces zeolite-based absorbents that can remove all Cl species without forming green oils and RCl.
Through kinetic modelling of Cl treaters, CLS Industrial Purification can accurately predict cycle lengths, given differing contaminant levels. Accurate measurement of RCl in H2 gas can be performed via onsite Cl survey, leading to accurate Cl balance around the CCR.
Benefits:
- Steam out during purging means no requirements for hot nitrogen.
- Faster purging times.
- Free flowing spent material - much faster change out times.
- Encapsulation of contaminants.
- Spent product can be disposed of as Class 2 Non – Hazardous waste.
- High activity means small mass transfer zone (mtz) leading to high bed utilization.
