MMA-Triazine Manufacturing
As we have said before, manufacturing triazine-based scavengers is simple—in theory. The devil’s in the details. This devil is also true for MMA-triazine manufacturing, if not
When MEA-triazine manufacturing goes wrong
In a quality control test five MEA triazine samples received from a high volume chemical manufacturer showed inconsistencies in triazine concentration and excess MEA Though
Sulfide scavenging by-products in NGLs
A midstream natural gas company faced a challenge in their collection system: solids were building up at their gas processing plant. Initially, the customer suspected
Troublesome triazine titrations
Titrations are a classic method for the measurement of amine concentration in solution. Amines are basic compounds—they will accept at H+ to become protonated. If
Spent scavenger analysis
We recently received a spent H2S scavenger sample for laboratory analysis. Over the years, we’ve seen many samples like that shown in the figure above:
Analysis of tramp amines
Tramp amines are a challenging crude oil contaminant for refinery operations. These amines generally arrive at the refinery from upstream processing—in-field sulfide scavenging. When they
