REMOVAL OF SULFATE FROM MEG STREAMS USING CALCIUM CHLORIDE

A MEG recovery process is described, in which a MEG stream is processed by performing a divalent treatment to reduce dissolved divalent cations in the portion of the stream; performing a sulfate treatment to reduce dissolved sulfate ions in the stream, the sulfate treatment comprising adding an unde...

Zusammenfassung:A MEG recovery process is described, in which a MEG stream is processed by performing a divalent treatment to reduce dissolved divalent cations in the portion of the stream; performing a sulfate treatment to reduce dissolved sulfate ions in the stream, the sulfate treatment comprising adding an underdose of one or more calcium halides, one or more lower calcium carboxylates, or a mixture thereof to a treatment stream; and precipitating calcium sulfate from the treatment stream; performing a solids removal treatment to reduce solids in the stream; and returning the treated stream, depleted in divalent cations, sulfate ions, and solids, to the MEG recovery process.
