LO-CAT’s are in service direct treating gasstreams for H2S removal, or operating in conjunction with amine systemsand Claus tail gas applications.GTP’s H2S removal solutions are applicable to all types of gas streams,including refinery fuel gas, natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, CO2, andamine acid gas.CONSULTING, ENGINEERING ANDTECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICESGas Technology Products group has more than 25 years of experienceevaluating, analyzing, and researching hydrogen sulfide. The result is awell-conditioned, flexible team ready to tailor an H2S removal solution forany application, flow rate, system capacity, or process condition – andto assist you in keeping it running smoothly, efficiently and profitably asyour needs grow and change.THE ELIMINATOR™ LIQUID SCAVENGER SYSTEMThe newest addition to the GTP lineup of H2S removal solutions is TheEliminator, a liquid, water-based hydrogen sulfide and mercaptanremoval system. KNOW WHO’S IN YOUR CORNERNo where else will you find the depth and breadth of experience thatGTP’s team has accumulated by working together with plantmanagement and operators to evaluate benefits, cost, and the ability tomeet environmental regulations and corporate requirements. Since 1980,our hydrogen sulfide removal processes have been used successfully indiverse applications such as refineries, water treatment facilities, andsanitary landfills. Both in its own research and development facilities andin cooperation with Texas A&M University and Scotland’s St. AndrewsUniversity, GTP is actively engaged in R&D efforts to continuously improvethe hydrogen sulfide process chemistry and its application as well as inthe development of new technology with the potential to dramaticallyand positively impact the gas processing industry in the years to come. Gas Technology Products have solid, liquid and regenerable catalystsystems to custom tailor sulfur removal solutions up to 30+ tons per day.Gas Technology Products operates as a wholly owned subsidiary ofMerichem Chemicals & Refinery Services LLC based in Houston, TX. Merichem Chemicals & Refinery Services LLC, a wholly owned subsidiaryof Merichem Company, provides a diversified portfolio of products andservices including naphthenic acids, copper naphthenate, sodiumhydrosulfide, and process technology to the chemical, refining, and pulpand paper industries. Merichem Company is considered a world leaderin the production of high specification chemical intermediates and thedevelopment of innovative process technology and engineering.Combined, Merichem and GTP offer over 75 years of experience inchemical services for diverse applications around the world including therefinery and chemical industries. COST EFFECTIVE DESULFURIZAFOR EVERY APPLICATION: UP TO 30+ TONS/DAY H2The Eliminator is designed to treat sour gas streams easily andquickly, with minimal capital investment. The water-basedsolution can be applied through any gas/liquid contactingtechnique, including direct injection into the gas stream with anin-line static mixer or spray nozzle; packed towers; or a batchoperated liquid column. In its simplest form, the Eliminator can bethe lowest capital cost and easiest solution to your hydrogensulfide and mercaptan removal requirements. Typically, theEliminator is very cost-effective for applications up to 200 kg perday sulfur removed.The Eliminator is a high molecular weight hexahydrotriazine-basedchemical, with high vapor pressure, specifically designed to treatH2S and mercaptans. CO2 is unreacted. The products of thereaction are also water-soluble. The reactant products create anon-corrosive, non-hazardous, biodegradable liquid that is verylow in toxicity. The spent liquid has the additional benefit of beinga mild corrosion inhibitor. Disposal of the reaction product isrelatively easy given the low-toxicity and high level ofbiodegradability of the reaction products.SULFUR-RITE® PACKAGED SYSTEMSSulfur-Rite® is a solid media hydrogen sulfide scavenger product. Itis non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-pyrophoric and environmentallysafe in both unreacted and reacted forms. While processingsour gas, the media does not produce any toxic or corrosiveby-products or side reactions. The Sulfur-Rite process chemicallychanges H2S into safe and stable iron pyrite (fool’s gold).The Sulfur-Rite process offers low capital costs. It has no movingparts, is quick and easy to install, and has no air emissions. Inaddition, the Sulfur-Rite process does not require expensiveancillary equipment or procedures, such as filters, additives, orflare gas make-up. Unlike many other systems, H2S breakthroughin the Sulfur-Rite media is gradual and easily detected, providingadvance notice of the need for media change out. When mediachange out is necessary, the change can be easily accomplishedin a single shift. GTP can offer media change out services in mostareas.GTP can custom design your Sulfur-Rite system to fit your uniqueprocessing requirements, or provide a standard package formany applications. In the Sulfur-Rite system, saturated gas entersthe top of the Sulfur-Rite vessel and exits the bottom. Lead-Laginstallations can be provided for virtually 100% on-lineperformance and increased media efficiency. Standardizedpackages can be provided for low pressure gas streams up to2500 SCFM, and are especially suited for vent applications, wetwells, landfill gas, municipal and industrial biogas, and geothermalNCG applications. The standardized packages also offer thebenefits of reduced cost and reduced time between order andinstallation, relative to most hydrogen sulfide systems.ULFURIZATION SOLUTIONSH SLO-CAT® PROCESS SOLUTIONSThe flexible LO-CAT® product line offers a variety of liquid H2S removal solutionsfor larger facilities with higher H2S loads (200kg per day sulfur to 30+ tons perday sulfur). Flexible operation allows 100% turndown in gas flow and H2Sconcentrations. LO-CAT units can be designed for better than 99.9% H2Sremoval efficiency.The patented LO-CAT liquid redox process does not use any toxic chemicalsand produces no hazardous waste by-products. The environmentally safecatalyst is continuously regenerated in the process, resulting in lower operatingcosts. In addition, the LO-CAT technology is listed by the EnvironmentalProtection Agency as Best Available Control Technology (BACT).A complete LO-CAT program from Gas Technology Products includes ongoingtechnical service, analytical service, trouble-shooting assistance, operatortraining and refresher courses, an annual user’s seminar, technical informationexchange, and a patent grant-back program. Total packages arecustomized for each application and can include design, equipment orcomplete turnkey installation.The Eliminator™ Sulfur-Rite® LO-CAT®System Capacity*Up to 200 kg/daysulfur removalUp to 200 kg/daysulfur removal200 kg/day sulfurremoval to 30+ tonsper day sulfur removalCatalyst Media Aqueous Solid Regenerable AqueousSelectivityH2SMercaptansH2SMercaptans (partial)H2SConfigurationsDirect InjectionSpray ColumnLiquid fullSingle vesselDual “lead-lag”configurationConventional• Liquid-full• MBA• Venturi Autocirculation Aerobic* System capacity figures are based on general economic trade-offs, not technicallimitations.
