Abstract:
The current project surges as a response to the necessity of a national refinery intending to adapt to these new legal requirements, concretely by reducing the SOx emissions. As these oxides proceed from the H2S burning, the adopted strategy is acting in the source point: The Double Sour Water Stripping unit (DSWS) since it is the main generator of the pollutant. The estimation of the capital investment for this new column and its associated equipment is of 1.84 M€.
