Innovative reagents for processing phosphate ores worldwide
Benoit Grymonprez and Guoxin Wang show how Arkema is developing long-lasting solutions to the new challenges faced by phosphate operations globally.
Incident No. 8 – Pressure instrument related failure at a urea plant
Diaphragm seals are applied when pressure or level transmitters need to be protected against harsh conditions like the corrosive ammonium carbamate in urea plants. The process pressure is transmitted via the flexible diaphragm and transmission fluid to the measuring instrument as shown in Fig. 1 below.
Next generation hydrogen technology
NX eBlue™ is a next-generation hydrogen production technology, ready for industrial deployment, that integrates electrification with renewable energy to deliver a low-carbon, high-efficiency alternative to traditional steam methane reforming. M. Antonelli, M. Mennella, and Dr. S. Romagnuolo of KT Tech S.p.A. describe NEXTCHEM’s proposal for the electrification of steam methane reforming.
Revolutionising e-methanol production with an innovative energy saving distillation system
Toyo Engineering Corporation (TOYO) has developed two proprietary technologies – g-Methanol ™ and SUPERHIDIC ™ – to enable ultra-low carbon e-methanol production.
First commercial scale e-methanol plant: Operational performance and technical support
As demand for green methanol grows, the Kassø e-methanol plant in Aabenaa, Denmark represents a significant milestone as the first commercial-scale e-methanol production facility in operation with a nameplate capacity of 42,000 t/a. European Energy and Clariant describe the technical collaboration between them in executing this pioneering e-methanol project
Hybrid cryogenic technologies for high-purity CO2
The selection of the post-combustion carbon capture technology to be implemented for a decarbonisation project is a crucial element during the early feasibility phases and it is strongly affected by the characteristics of the plant on which it has to be installed. NextChem highlights the comparative advantages of absorption technologies and the alternative opportunities of using a cryogenic configuration to reach the desired carbon capture rate.
Revamp pathway for incremental ATR methanol capacity
In this study Kinetics Process Improvements (KPI) demonstrates that controlled ethane co-feeding combined with intermediate methanol condensation in the synthesis loop provides a practical, low capital, low-risk revamp strategy to increase ATR methanol plant capacity by approximately 5% while remaining fully within existing equipment, metallurgical, and compression limits.
Unlocking phosphate beneficiation potential: a ‘Mine-to-Mill’ transformation
Transformational beneficiation improvements are presented in this case study by Keenan Collins, Jayden Ladebruk and Edward DeRose of Hatch.
