Benfield versus Amine

[nevine]

I wonder which is much better, more effective and more economic, the benfield solution or the amine for gas sweetening, and if it is possible to change benfield solution by amine with using the same units and equipments.

I think you should provide more information like:
- size of gas to be treated
- amount of CO2/H2S to be romved
- pressure of gasflow to be treated etcetera.

based on what the market installs, amine is the winner in most cases.

why stop with Benfield, propylene carbonate, designer amines, methanol and even the newly touted in commericals on TV, solidification of CO2 by the exxon ryan-holmes process, an old technology with new life of the CO2 fad.
