Products Description

The amine filter for chemical plants is designed to protect amine systems (sweetening, gas processing, syngas purification, CO2 capture) by removing submicron solids and liquid aerosols. It utilizes a multi-layer composite depth filtration media specifically selected for chemical compatibility with aggressive amines (MEA, DEA, MDEA, DGA) and high H2S/CO2 environments.

Working Principle

1. Mechanism: Contaminated amine flows from the outside to the inside of the cartridge.

Multi-Stage Capture: Larger particles trapped on the surface; finer particles and gels captured deep within the graded-density media matrix via adsorption and mechanical entrapment.
2. Result: Progressive loading maximizes dirt-holding capacity, extending service life and protecting downstream components like carbon beds or activated alumina from premature fouling. Maintains optimal amine clarity.

Technical Parameters

Product Name	Amine Filter for Chemical Plants
Dimensions	Standard 10"x 2.5", 20"x 2.5", 30"x 2.5", 40"x 4.5". Custom sizes available.
Flow Rates	Optimized for typical amine circulation rates (e.g., 5-10 GPM per 10" cartridge @ 10µ rating, dependent on viscosity/density).
Temperature	Continuous service up to 90°C (Higher temp options available).
Pressure Drop	Initial ΔP < 3.5 PSID @ rated flow. Max recommended ΔP: 30 PSID.
pH Compatibility	Designed for full amine system operating pH range (typically 8-12).

Key features

High Dirt-Holding Capacity: Pleated, graded-density media maximizes surface area for extended service intervals.
Chemical Compatibility: Resistant to strong amines, solvents, and common corrosion inhibitors used in gas treating.
Low ΔP Design: Optimized pleat geometry keeps initial pressure drop below 0.2 bar at full flow, reducing pump energy consumption.
Easy Retrofit: Available in industry-standard lengths and end-cap types for drop-in replacement of major OEM filters.

Applications

Critical Applications in Chemical Plants:

Final Polishing Filtration: Installed immediately upstream of the amine contactor absorber column inlet. Most critical application.
Stripper Inlet Protection: Guarding reboilers and column internals from solids carryover.
Carbon Filter Outlet: Capturing carbon fines breakthrough.
Amine Reclaimer Feed/Product: Ensuring clean amine to/from reclaimer units.
Lean/Rich Amine Recirculation Loops: Continuous protection throughout the system.
Solvent Make-up Filtration: Protecting new amine from introduced contaminants.

FAQ

Q: Can these filters handle high H2S/CO2 amine?

A: Absolutely. Materials are specifically selected for resistance to sour service degradation. PTFE/PFA options available for extreme conditions.

Q: What micron rating do I need?

A: Depends on your primary contaminant and goal. 5-10μ targets general solids/FeS. 1-3μ is critical for stopping foaming precursors and fine carbon/silica. We analyze your amine sample to recommend the optimal rating.

Q: Do you offer compatibility testing?

A: Yes, we can perform material compatibility testing with your specific amine blend upon request.
