Brine Treatment
Upstream and downstream, operators need oil-free brine effluent from their dehydration and desalting equipment to protect downstream processes and to prevent upsets in their waste water treatment systems. In the Refinery, this important issue has become even more challenging to manage with the growing trend to process heavy crudes and lower-quality crude blends.
Effective desalting of challenging crudes is your first line of defense for brine treatment. With the most advanced electrostatics technologies available in the industry like, Dual Frequency® and Electro-Dynamic® Desalter, we offer improved performance at the crude unit, to prevent unacceptable levels of oil under-carry from getting to your wastewater system in the first place.
For quality brine treatment at the source point, choose the Tridair Versaflo™ Induced Gas Flotation (IGF) technology. A breakthrough in vertical column single-cell IGF design, this application is ideal for existing refineries or offshore applications where space is at a premium.
