Blue Sky Amine Treating and Amine Sweetening Plants

We are proud to offer complete design packages for 5, 25, 60, 100, 200, 350, 400, and 1,000 gpm amine treating plants. Our complete amine plant designs include all specifications for instrumentation, paint, insulation, pipes, valves, equipment, weld procedures, and more. These design packs can also be easily adapted to suit any operational preferences or custom specifications you may have. We have worked with numerous companies in order to develop an amine plant that is specific to their needs.

The amount of CO2 or H2S to be removed from the gas stream will determine the amount of amine flow that is necessary in order to reach the outlet gas specification. The pressure and volume of the natural gas will dictate the size of the contractors as well as any other ancillary equipment that may be required in the design of the amine equipment.

Each of our amine plants was designed with direct input from mechanics, electricians, operators, and process and mechanical engineers. Throughout our designs, we have carefully implemented our own industry experience, literature from Lawrence Reid, BRE simulation, historical data from the GPA handbook, and input from our customers.

We offer an amine plant that is highly reliable, easy to operate and maintain, and cost-effective in terms of monthly operational cost.

We guarantee the performance of all of our amine units and processing plants.

Treating Natural Gas with Amines / Amine Sweetening Process

Amine sweetening is a chemical absorption process that utilizes alkanolamine or amine solutions. This established and proven technology is utilized for the treatment of gas streams contaminated with carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Based on the operating conditions and composition of the feed gas, a variety of amines may be chosen in order to meet various outlet gas specifications.

Amines are classified as primary, secondary, and tertiary based on the degree of substitution of the central nitrogen by organic groups.

MEA

MEA is a primary amine that reacts directly with CO2, H2S, and carbonyl sulfide (COS)
It is used in low pressure natural gas treatment applications that require strict outlet gas specifications

DGA® Agent (Diglycolamine®)

DGA® Agent is a primary amine that reacts directly with CO2 and H2S.
DGA® Agent is able to absorb carbonyl sulfide (COS) and mercaptans.
It is able to be used in low, medium, and high pressure gas treating applications
It may require a reclaimer depending on inlet gas composition, which maintains the amine clean and free of degradation products.

DIGLYCOLAMINE, DGA and JEFFTREAT are Registered Trademarks of Huntsman Corporation.

DEA (Diethanolamine)

DEA is a common secondary amine. It reacts directly with CO2 and H2S. It reacts directly with some COS.
It is used in medium to high pressure treating situations
It does not require reclaiming as do DGA and MEA systems

MDEA (Methyldiethanolamine)

MDEA is a tertiary amine that reacts directly with H2S and reacts indirectly with CO2. It also reacts indirectly with little COS
MDEA has a higher partiality for H2S than CO2, allowing some CO2 to pass through the column while maintaining the same H2S removal abilities
