Oil Refining Amine Treating, Fuel Additives & Other Solutions
Manage Refinery Amine System Complexity With Expert Support
Dow offers a variety of products and services to help refineries meet regulatory specifications and keep operational costs low. We have been helping customers meet their gas treating needs for over 65 years and are backed by more than 1,000 global references.
Exceptional Solutions for Common Challenges
Dow has an extensive portfolio of specialty amines including our line of UCARSOL™ solvents which are formulated to meet the distinct removal targets of each refinery. These solvents reduce amine losses, prevent corrosion, treat contaminants and increase system capacity. If the product you are currently using does not meet the treatment needs of your amine system, our team, as a part of our Refinery Amine Management Program (RAMP360), will provide a distinct offering for your system. In addition to typical gas treating solvents, we provide additional cleaning and antifoam additives which help to prevent foaming and keep your systems running smoothly.
Energy Savings Through Waste Heat Recovery
The decision to choose a synthetic organic fluid, a silicone fluid or an inhibited glycol-based fluid is largely based on the application temperature requirements. Dow offers a comprehensive range of heat transfer fluids that help manage energy use through engineering design enhancement; use energy efficiently in large, integrated complexes; protect against internal metal corrosion to extend asset lifespan and minimize system design weight of offshore platforms vs. similar steam boiler systems.
A Full Range of Coolants for a Full Range of Applications
Helping to enhance equipment efficiency is important to maintaining everyday operations. Dow is known in the industry for the quality, performance, technical expertise and service of its products. Whether you need an ethylene glycol (EG) or propylene glycol (PG)-based coolant or specialized corrosion inhibitors, Dow can work with you to find a NORKOOL™ solution or identify the best lubricant for your system’s needs.
Fuel Additives for Optimum Protection & Detection
Dow is not only well-versed in gas treating chemistries, but also hosts an array of fuel additives critical for fuel identification and protection against microbial build up. Dow’s biocides are critical for maintaining the integrity of fuels at all points during storage, distribution and usage. Left untreated, fuels are susceptible to bacterial and fungal contamination that can impact fuel performance properties. We also offer fuel markers and dyes that help with fuel identification, leak detection and distribution quality.
Dow’s Solutions for Wastewater Reclamation
One of the biggest challenges for refinery sites globally is the treatment of water used in the refining process. With more stringent regulations and water resource limitations, Dow offers Ultrafiltration and ion exchange technologies that can help with waste water treatment and help you meet the compliance targets for your site and systems.
