Amine Filtration

Dirty Amine flows into the filter through the inlet header valve. Contaminant is collected on the outside of the filter elements. Clean Amine flows through the elements and into the outlet header of the filter and back to the amine loop.

As contaminant builds on the filter elements, the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet of the filter increases. When the differential pressure reaches 15 psi, the system automatically initiates a backwash.
