SULFIX scavenger helped avoid multi-million dollar amine unit investment Challenges ? Design a robust H 2 S scavenger program to rapidly adjust to fluctuating operating conditions and maintain regulatory compliance ? Variable H 2 S load in the flare line, with concentrations exceeding 2,000 ppm and flow rates surpassing 1 MMSCFD Results ? A accurately addressed the fluctuating H 2 S concentrations in the flare gas line, avoiding a multi-million dollar investment in amine units ? Reduced H 2 S concentrations from approximately 2,000 ppm to less than 150 ppm, enabling the refiner to meet US EPA requirements Sulfur oxides (SOx) are emitted when refineries send hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S)- laden gases to the flare. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
