Operating Benefits if DURAGUARD S100 Absorbent
  • William Blythe has combined innovation in chemistry with our expertise in manufacturing technology to produce a high capacity absorbent for H₂S removal and co-removal of H₂S and mercury from hydrocarbon gas and liquid streams, offering unrivaled durability and performance to natural gas processing operators.
  • The DURAGUARD S100 absorbent is engineered to have enhanced porosity, resulting inavery high capacity for H₂S.
  • Operating benefits include impurity removal to very low levels. Product life depends on the amount of H₂S that passes through the bed, allowing for variations in the gas flow and impurity level. The sharp absorption profile means that single bed operation is possible. However, a lead-lag configuration offers the flexibility to change-out spent absorbent while the plant is on-line allowing continuous, uninterrupted operation.
Benefits
  • Sulfur removal to very low levels (<0.1 ppm v)
  • Reliable performance and long predictable life
  • Low and stable pressure drop
  • Spent absorbent can be re-processed

Applications & Uses

Markets
Applications
  • DURAGUARD S100 is a high porosity metal oxide granule used for H2S removal from hydrocarbon gasses and liquids by reaction with metal oxide in non-regenrable fixed beds.
