    Abstract: A system and method for removing acidic species from a rich mono-ethylene glycol ("MEG") solution (21) does so by stripping the acid from the rich MEG solution (21) by contacting the solution with a gas (23), the gas being nitrogen or a fuel gas such as methane; and stripping the acid from the gas by contacting the gas with a caustic solution (41) such as a dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The stripping steps take place in respective stripping columns (25). A portion of the gas (27) exiting the gas acid stripping column (30) can be recycled to the MEG acid stripping column (25) to reduce total gas usage. A portion of the waste stream (35) exiting the gas acid stripping column (30) can be recycled back to the gas acid stripping column (30) to reduce the amount of caustic solution (41) used as well as the amount of waste.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for separating water from an oil-water influx are provided. The apparatus includes a separation vessel (10) having an inlet (15), an oil collection portion (20) at its upper end (25), and a water collection portion (30) at its lower end (35). Multiple high voltage tubes (40), each containing an electrode (45), are located within the oil collection portion (20). These high voltage tubes (40) are staggered in length and held in place by perforated plates (100). The oil- water influx flows through the inlet (15) of the vessel (10) into the high voltage tubes (40), where it is subjected to an electrostatic field. The electrostatic field causes water droplets in the influx to coalesce and form a water out-flux which flows downwardly into the water collection portion (30) of the vessel (10). The remaining stream of dehydrated oil flows upwardly to the upper outlet end (25). The oil collection portion of (20) the separation vessel (10) may be oriented vertically or at an angle.

    Abstract: A system and method to remove solids, liquid contaminants, or both from a process stream (15) does so in a liquid pool zone (21) of a vessel (20) as the stream comes into contact with a heating medium (23) that is less volatile than the process stream (15). To keep the pool hot, the heating medium (23) can be recirculated through a heater (41) of a pump- around loop (40) or a heater (41) can be placed in the liquid pool zone (21). As the process stream (15) is vaporized, solids and any remaining liquids present in the process stream (15) migrate from the process stream (15) into the heating medium (23), and may be further removed from the heating medium (23) in the pool or in the pump-around loop (40). The vaporized process stream (30) can be further condensed. Any heat recovered can be used to pre-heat the process stream or used in the pump-around loop's heater in case of mechanical vapor recovery.

    Abstract: A method to remove oil from an oily water stream (25) includes the step of pressure controlling a release of dissolved gases from the stream (25) as the stream (25) passes through two or more stages of gas flotation treatment. The operating pressure of the first stage of flotation (30) treatment is purposefully reduced relative to that of an upstream unit (20) so that a certain controlled percent volume of dissolved gases is released. The operating pressure of the second stage of flotation (40) treatment is then purposefully reduced relative to that of the first stage (30) so that another controlled percent volume of dissolved gases is released. Any subsequent flotation treatment stage is at a lower operating pressure than that of the previous stage so that the subsequent treatment stage releases a controlled percent volume of dissolved gases. By controlling the operating pressure in this way, overall separation performance is improved.
