Amine purification system for heat stable salt removal

Efficiently remove corrosive heat stable salts from amine circuits to enhance operational efficiency and lower material costs in carbon capture and purification processes.

The AmiPur® PLUS from Kovalus Separation Solutions is a robust ion exchange amine purification system ideal for petrochemical, fertilizer, and coal plants. It employs Recoflo® ion exchange technology to continuously remove heat stable salts from amine circuits, crucial for maintaining low corrosive levels and enhancing absorber performance in carbon capture processes. This system is integral in refining carbon dioxide and purifying amines, benefiting operations by reducing amine purchasing costs and equipment corrosion. Compact and efficient, it seamlessly integrates into existing production lines, offering continuous operation with minimal downtime. The AmiPur® PLUS is engineered for durability with materials resistant to harsh industrial environments, ensuring long-term reliability and reduced maintenance. It supports automation with PLC integration, streamlining operations and minimizing manual intervention.
