Abstract: In this research, firstly, a commercial gas sweetening unit with methyl-di-ethanol-amine (MDEA) solution is simulated and comprised in an integrated model in accordance with Aspen HYSYS software. For evaluation purposes, in the second step, the results of the simulation are compared with operating data gathered from South Pars Gas Complex (SPGC). According to the simulation results, the considerable energy potential contributed to the pressure difference between absorber and regenerator columns causes this energy driving force to be applied in power recovery turbine (PRT). In the last step, the amount of waste hydraulic energy is calculated, and its recovery methods are investigated.
Abstract: In this article the investigation about installation heat
recovery steam generation (HRSG) on the exhaust of turbo generators of phases 2&3 at South Pars Gas Complex is presented.
The temperature of exhaust gas is approximately 665 degree centigrade, Installation of heat recovery boiler was simulated in
ThermoFlow 17.0.2 software, based on test operation data and the
equipments site operation conditions in Pars exclusive economical energy area, the affect of installation HRSG package on the available
gas turbine and its operation parameters, ambient temperature, the
exhaust temperatures steam flow rate were investigated. Base on the results recommended HRSG package should have the capacity for 98
ton per hour high pressure steam generation this refinery, by use of
exhaust of three gas turbines for each package in operation condition of each refinery at 30 degree centigrade. Besides saving energy this
project will be an Environment-Friendly project. The Payback Period
is estimated approximately 1.8 year, with considering Clean Development Mechanism.
Abstract: IFP Group Technology “Sulfrex process" was used in
Iran-s South Pars Gas Complex Refineries for removing sulfur
compounds such as mercaptans, carbonyl sulfide and hydrogen
sulfide, which uses sulfonated cobalt phthalocyanine dispersed in
alkaline solution as catalyst. In this technology, catalyst and alkaline
solution were used circularly. However the stability of catalyst due to
effect of some parameters would reduce with the running of the unit
and therefore sweetening efficiency would be decreased. Hence, the
aim of this research is study the factors effecting on the stability of
catalyst.
