A great majority of glycol dehydration units in operation for natural gas conditioning are based on TEG recirculation systems. Energy requirements for the glycol regeneration step are directly proportional to the glycol circulation rate and represent the major energy demand for this process unit.

In our experience performing engineering calculations for hundreds of these units, we have found that it is quite common to find that glycol is over-circulated with implications on both energy consumption and air emissions (BTEX, GHGs, etc.).

Process Ecology has the expertise to support the optimization of these units and to recommend the optimal arrangements for minimum emissions at minimum cost.
