Project Description
HPD was chosen to replace the existing three evaporator trains that were currently in place at this facility with one very highly-integrated system.

Due to the age of the current trains, MACT I compliance was necessary in any new design. System efficiency and reducing overall operation costs were also paramount for the development of equipment and process design.
