Mercury monitoring system for natural gas MMS-NG - 1

envea Mercury Instruments Mercury monitoring system for natural gas MMS-NG The Mercury Monitoring System MMS-NG automatically measures mercury concentrations in natural gas at up to 16 measuring points. Natural gas often contains mercury at concentrations that vary from below 1 to above 10000 pg/m3. Mercury is both toxic and potentially damaging: it can corrode or embrittle common gas plant components. Gas plants reduce mercury in natural gas with mercury removal units (MRUs). MRUs use fixed bed absorbers, often with sulfur-impregnated carbon or other chemisorbents as the active material. The Mercury Monitoring System MMS-NG is an ideal tool to determine the efficiency of each MRU in real time, and necessary to successfully monitor and control mercury concentrations during natural gas production and processing. CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS Each mercury on-line system will differ in sample characteristics as well as installation conditions and operating environment. Therefore the need for a customized solution MAIN APPLICATIONS ■ Natural gas platforms ■ Natural gas exploitation ■ Natural gas processing plants SPECIFIC FEATURES ■ Automatic and continuous measurement ■ Fast and reliable results ■ Detects elemental and bound mercury ■ Automatic calibration i Sample point multiplexer: 2 to 16 channels i Sample dilution for high concentrations i No carrier gases required i Certified for hazardous zones

SAMPLING SYSTEM FOR NATURAL GAS The integrity of the sampling system is as important as the analyzer itself. To sample natural gas from a pipeline, the sampling system must reduce pressure and guide the sample from the sampling point to the analyzer, leaving the mercury concentration unchanged. Plus it should show a minimum lag time and be suited to use in hazardous zones. Our MMS sample conditioning system fulfills these requirements. The surface of the pressure-reduction system is electrically heated to obviate condensation and mercury loss caused by the Joule-Thomson cooling effect. A...
