Welded Plate Heat Exchangers Bloc Type (Compabloc) features

Scambio Termico

While many process and maintenance engineers are familiar with the traditional gasketed plate heat exchanger, the welded plate heat exchanger has greatly expanded the appliable temperature and pressure rating available to the plate exchanger technology. Compablocs have been used as reboilers and condensers on the same separation column.

How Natural Gas Coolers Improve Energy Efficiency

Pro-Gas Services

This heating process releases the refrigerant as a vapor, which is then condensed and evaporated to absorb heat from the surrounding environment, thus producing a cooling effect. Regular maintenance is essential to optimal performance and longevity. Lower maintenance costs also contribute to a favorable return on investment.

The Importance of Field Gas Conditioners and JT Skids in the Oil and Gas Industry

Pro-Gas Services

In a JT skid, this principle is harnessed to cool and condense the gas, facilitating the separation of liquids and impurities. These components have a tendency to condense as the gas cools during transportation, forming liquids that can wreak havoc on pipelines and downstream equipment.

The Importance of Vapor Recovery Units in Reducing Emissions

Pro-Gas Services

Condensation Condensation is a process that takes advantage of the physical properties of VOCs. By cooling the vapor stream to a specific temperature, the VOCs reach their dew point and condense into a liquid form. This is similar to how water vapor condenses into droplets on a cold surface.

The Benefits of Portable JT Skids for Natural Gas Production

Pro-Gas Services

This process uses the principle of adiabatic expansion to cool and condense natural gas, separating heavier hydrocarbons and water from the methane-rich stream. With proper maintenance and operation, portable JT skids can significantly enhance the safety of your natural gas processing operations. How do I maintain a portable JT skid?
