Successful Projects Using the Fluid Line Processor

1.        Maritime Slop Oils:

Because of the tremendous maritime traffic of loading and unloading of petroleum based shipments, there is a demand for facilities that process maritime ship slops, a by-product of the cleaning of cargo holds and bilges of ships prior to acquiring their next cargo load of product for transport. Due to the lack of processing facilities throughout the world, the majority of oil transport ships are barging their slops to storage tanks until disposition is arranged.  In some cases, ship slops are illegally disposed of at sea. Under maritime laws, anyone caught violating laws against illegal dumping are subject to severe fines and penalties.  Billions of dollars have been allocated to find solutions
to this problem.  

2.        Fuel Oil - Utilities Around the World Burn Fuel Oil, Coal Or Natural Gas:

Fuel Oil with high sulfur content is expensive to burn; it creates expensive maintenance to the steam generating system, and discharges hazardous contaminants into the atmosphere. The Fluid Line Processor removes these impurities, resulting in an increase in BTU value and lower power generation operating costs as well as providing environmentally acceptable discharges into the atmosphere.

3.        Crude Oil:

Sulfur content in produced crude oil has become a major problem for refiners. Removing the sulfur requires the implementation of extremely expensive desulfurization units as well as expensive additives to aid in their removal during the refining process. The Fluid Line Processor removes these elements economically and efficiently. The capital costs are less. The operating costs are less due to the reduction of energy requirements to run the processing equipment.

Separation Technologies

1.        CRUDE OIL BS&W AND SULFUR REMOVAL PROJECT
Location
Westex Oil Reclamation, Notrees, Texas from August 1, 1995 to September 15, 1995.

Purpose & Trial Conditions
Clean up BS&W and Sulfur in crude oil tank bottoms from Amoco and Anadarko Petroleum delivered to Westex reclamation facility.  Daily 6-hour trials runs at 10 bbl/hr for 20 days.

Results                                    Tank Bottoms & Oil Field Slops
Material Analysis               Incoming        Processed        Reduction

Analysis
Reservoirs Inc, Midland, Texas collected independent samples and prepared above analysis (reports available)

2.        NO. 6 FUEL OIL (MALAYSIA)
Location
Ten barrels of No. 6 Fuel Oil from Malaysia were air shipped for processing by CEI at facilities at Midland, Texas from September 15, 1997 to October 3, 1997.

Purpose & Trial Conditions
Remove Sulfur from No. 6 Fuel Oil.  Twice daily runs of 10 minutes over 10 days at a process rate of 5 GPM and 120°F for viscosity reduction.

Results                                       Bunker # 6 Fuel Oil
Material Analysis        Incoming        Processed        Reduction %
Sulfur (%/wt)                   3.11                   0.48                     85

Analysis
Maxim Technologies, Inc, Midland, Texas (report available).
