Sour Water Stripping

 

CB&I supplies sour water stripping units for the removal of hydrogen sulfide and ammonia from refinery wastewater. Around the world, we have designed and built more than 30 sour water stripping units with capacities of 32 to 925 gallons per minute.

Our sour water strippers are designed to provide superior energy efficiency and enhanced performance. We incorporate proprietary features such as low-pressure feed flash drums for maximum hydrocarbon separation and light hydrocarbon removal; optimized steam-to-feed ratios for cost-effective compliance with effluent specifications; and innovative applications of corrosion-resistant materials.

Integrated process solutions. We offer a full spectrum of sulfur control solutions to help refiners meet fuel quality standards and environmental regulations. We can seamlessly integrate our sour water stripping units with our Claus sulfur recovery plants, tail gas treaters, thermal incineration units and other processing units for maximum performance and efficiency.

We execute most projects on a lump-sum, turnkey basis. Our comprehensive services for sulfur-control projects include feasibility studies, front-end engineering design, detail engineering, HAZOP analyses, procurement, fabrication, construction, startup, commissioning and operator training. By offering a complete EPC services package, we consistently deliver systems that provide superior long-term value-often at lower costs and on shorter schedules.

Effective project execution. We carefully plan and execute our projects to minimize disruption to plant operations. In many cases, we utilize modular construction methods, prefabricating and assembling the units at our shops and shipping them to the installation site. By performing much of the work at our own facilities, we minimize on-site requirements for lay-down space, enhance safety and quality control and can minimize delays due to inclement weather.
