Hydrogen Sulfide, H2S, a highly corrosive gas, commonly found in natural gas, can cause corrosion in gas engines or turbines (if used as fuel) and gas transmission lines. H2S has to be removed before the gas can be used as fuel or sent to the gas pipeline.H2S, can be easily removed from methane or light hydrocarbon gas streams by Gener on’s membrane systems. As an added benefit, the system also removes any water vapor and CO2 present. Generon’s membrane systems effectively remove the H2S, no matter how high the H2S levels are.
SMC IGS supplies customized H2S removal systems. SMC fabricates membrane modules and works directly with the client to provide the most cost effective solution.
Technical advantages
• Extensive Experience - Customer-designed skids
• State-of-the-art Membrane - High recoveries
• H2O Removal - No additional dehydration needed
• Simple Solution - No moving parts, minimal maintenance
• Remote Operation - Minimal attention required
• No Chemicals - Environmentally friendly
• Small Footprint - Easily meet footprint requirements
Applications
• Pipeline gas applications
• Biogas or digester gas
• Fuel gas conditioning
H2S removal membrane system the feed gas is first filtered to remove any particles and liquid condensate. The gas then enters the membrane modules. The H2S as well as any CO2 and H2O also permeate preferably through the membrane. The non permeated gas, mainly CH4 and heavy hydrocarbons, remains at pressure and is the product gas.
Performance
• Feed gas pressures up to 1.4MPa
• > 95% recovery of hydrocarbon gas
• > 10ppm ~ < 5 vol% removal of H2S
• Flow rates: 20~500,000Nm³/h
