COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

Merox Treating System Design in the oil and gas industry is a refining process used to remove mercaptans from petroleum products such as jet fuel, LPG, kerosene, and gasoline. The Merox (Mercaptan Oxidation) system converts odorous and corrosive mercaptans into disulfides, which are less harmful and do not affect fuel quality. This process involves the use of a proprietary Merox catalyst and caustic solution in either a liquid-liquid or fixed-bed configuration, depending on the feedstock and treatment requirements. Proper system design ensures efficient mercaptan removal, compliance with product specifications, and minimal environmental impact while optimizing operational costs and reliability. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and intermediate overview of UOP Meroxa process technology. It covers the Meroxª processes, process flow during normal operating conditions and description; the process chemistry, process variables and mechanical equipment as well as employ analytical methods; the proper catalytic handling; Implement operating procedures and carryout correct troubleshooting; and the Meroxª reagents and catalysts and employ the safety all the time.
