Refinery Amine Samples

Refinery Amine Samples

Detailed Amine Analysis

  • Evaluation of amine solvent to determine "bad actors" which can cause corrosion, foaming, and off-spec issues.

  • Analysis will detail: amine concentration, viscosity, heat stable amine salts, H2S & CO2 loadings, ash content, suspended matter, pH, metal scan (Fe, Mn, Cr, Ni, K, Na), water content, visual appearance, mass balance, IC analysis of all organic and inorganic acids, density, GC analysis of the solvent degradation products, foam test.

  • Having an independent laboratory provide the analysis gives you peace of mind and no bias in the results.

  • Results will be compared against SRE best-practices and SRE will provide guidance on improved operation, compiled into a summary report.

  • SRE recommends monthly detailed analysis for highly troubled units.
