Why Choose This Course

The Amine Treating and Sulfur Recovery Technology training course gives gas-processing professionals the practical and technical knowledge required to manage acid gas removal effectively. It examines operations where removing hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) is essential to product quality, asset protection and regulatory compliance. These capabilities support the design, operation and optimisation of treating and sulfur recovery units within refineries, gas plants and petrochemical facilities. They are increasingly critical as environmental standards become more stringent.

Participants examine amine absorption and regeneration chemistry, solvent selection, circulation strategies and the operating parameters that affect overall system performance. They also learn practical approaches to preventing and resolving foaming, corrosion, degradation and heat-stable salt problems. Sulfur recovery coverage includes the Claus process and its modifications, tail gas treatment systems, recovery efficiency and compliance with environmental limits. The course builds skills and confidence in optimisation, troubleshooting, equipment behaviour and unit integration to improve treating efficiency, sulfur recovery, emissions control and plant reliability.

This Amine Treating and Sulfur Recovery Technology training course will highlight:

Understanding amine absorption and regeneration chemistry
Selecting solvents, circulation strategies and operating parameters
Preventing foaming, corrosion, degradation and heat-stable salts
Examining the Claus process and its modifications
Applying tail gas treatment to increase recovery and meet environmental limits
Optimising equipment performance, troubleshooting operations and integrating associated units

Advanced Process Optimization and Emissions Control

The Amine Treating and Sulfur Recovery Technology training course begins with the composition and properties of gas streams, acid-gas contaminants and the basis for selecting suitable treating processes. It then develops the principles of chemical absorption and regeneration, comparing the characteristics and applications of different amine solvents. The agenda proceeds through the main amine-unit process flow, including contactor and regenerator operation, associated equipment and the principal operating variables affecting circulation, concentration, loading and acid-gas removal.

Attention then moves to the operational problems encountered in amine systems, including foaming, corrosion, solvent degradation, contamination and amine losses, together with relevant monitoring and troubleshooting considerations. The course subsequently covers sulfur recovery chemistry and the main stages of the Claus process, from thermal conversion to catalytic reaction and sulfur recovery. The final topics address process control and operating factors within sulfur recovery units, followed by tail-gas treatment, residual sulfur-compound handling and the management of emissions from the overall treating and recovery sequence.
