SilcoNert Used to Evaluate Sulfur Adsorption in SNG Plants

March 28 2014 Process Analytical

SNG Plant
A recent paper by Hong Cui, Scott Q. Turn & Mark A. Reese of the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute, University of Hawaii at Manoa studied methods to effectively remove sulfur compounds and measure sulfur breakthrough of SNG (synthetic natural gas) plants.

SNG Sulfur measurement

How did they measure low level sulfur revoval? With SilcoNert ® 2000 (Sulfinert®) coated flow paths. GC injection ports, liners, tubing, regulators, fittings, and filters can all be made virtually inert with SilcoNert 2000. The study measured the effectiveness of carbon removal of sulfurs in SNG plants; an example of the low level detection capability SilcoNert 2000 offers can be seen in the study tabulated results:

The study goes on to state; "All of the components including the sorbent column and gas delivery lines were treated with a Sulﬁnert® coating or were made from Teﬂon to prevent sulfur compounds from being adsorbed on the working surfaces of the system."
