Hydrogen sulde, carbon dioxide, mercaptans and other contaminants are often found in natural gas streams. H2S is a highly toxic gas that is corrosive to carbon steels. CO2 is also corrosive to equipment and reduces the Btu value of gas. Gas sweetening processes remove these contaminants so the gas is suitable for transportation and use. NATCO designs and manufactures a variety of gas sweetening systems, including amine systems. NATCO offers a number of amine solvents, that remove the contaminants by chemical reaction. Custom and standard designs are available to meet any gas sweetening challenge, and lease/purchase options are available.

Standardized Amine Plants Standardized plants save you time and money
By standardising the gas sweetening design, we are able to provide fast delivery and a savings in engineering cost.
The standard plants are shop-fabricated modular packages. They are skid-mounted and include all piping and controls. The plants are designed to use a variety of solvents, as well as MEA, DEA, MDEA, DGA and Sulnol. Equipment included in each plant: Amine contactor tower Reboiler/surge tank Reux condenser/solution cooler in a common aerial cooler package Reux accumulator Reux pump(s) Main solvent pump(s) Solvent booster pump(s) Full ow lter for rich solvent Charcoal lter Control panel/motor starters
The 1-3gpm unit has the reux system integral with the still column. This unit does not require reux pumps or booster pumps.

Except for the gas contact tower the 1-3 gpm, 3-10 gpm and 10-20 gpm plants are complete on one skid. The reboiler and aerial cooler are mounted off-skid on the 20-40 gpm plant. The reboiler, still, and solvent aerial cooler are off-skid on the larger plants.
