• North American refining
  US refiners are now some of the largest exporters of finished products, but changing feedstock slates, Canadian oil sands production, a revival of Mexican capacity and the prospects of US oil exports as well as the global demand situation may all have a bearing on future North American refined sulphur output.

• Innovative wet ESP designs
  Modern gas cleaning and emission control strategies continue to evolve in response to the increasing complexity, toxicity and corrosiveness of industrial exhaust and process gases, not to mention increasingly stringent environmental regulations. In this article we track the commercial progress made during the last decades in the development of high performance wet electrostatic precipitator solutions to replace aging wet ESP models with all-lead internals.

• Improving emissions for a cleaner environment
  M. Rameshni and S. Santo of Rameshni & Associates Technology & Engineering (RATE) report on a new zero emission tail gas process for sulphur recovery facilities. RATE's Super Enhanced Tail Gas Recovery (SETR) process can be added to any Claus process or tail gas treating unit after the incinerator and before the stack. It has lower capital and operating costs than a caustic scrubber, requires no chemicals and produces no waste stream.
