Solution Degradation and Contamination
Degraded and contaminated amines can result in poor acid gas absorption, foaming, corrosion or regeneration problems. Exact levels and speciation of the contaminants can only be done by chemical analysis; however, several on-site observational and simple analytical techniques can help determine the cause and effect of the current contaminant level in the amine. Amine Experts will evaluate the potential side-effects of degraded or contaminated amine in the system, as well as recommend the appropriate remedial action.
