  The objective of this work is to explore feasible technologies to minimize SO2 emissions from ADGAS and investigate the impact of implementing such modifications on the ambient air quality at the Island. In order to achieve this, two SO2 emission minimization schemes have been proposed; a Fuel Gas Sweetening (FGS) scheme and a Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) scheme.The FGS scheme involves (1) directing most of the H2S in the fuel gas to the Sulfur Recovery Units (SRUs) where it is converted to elemental sulfur. The unconverted H2S will be routed to the SRUs’ incinerators where it is oxidized to SO2, and (2) revamping the UGAs internals (by replacing current packing with an approved higher efficiency packing) in order to produce a sweeter fuel gas. The FGD scheme involves installation of SW-FGD units downstream the SRUs’ incinerators where the SO2 in the flue gas is scrubbed.. View More»
