Plant & Instrument Air System U-910


Introduction
Plant air also known as service air is basically for machines that require air that does not need to be
extremely clean or dry, and usually require large volumes.
Instrument air is the mixture of nitrogen & oxygen and very small amount of dust (below the required
limit) used in the instrument to operate pneumatic valves, certain types of pumps, fans, some blowing
down hoses. The Instrument air in a plant is used to supply motive force for control valves & that
keeps the plant in control and running. Instrument air is often specially dried to reduce the risk of
condensation freezing-out in the small-bore piping. To maintain the above situation in the plant
Instrument air must be dried to remove any moisture and/or condensate for:
i.
ii.

Protecting the instruments and control system from damage.


Obtaining exact readings through these instruments and control system.

Quality of Instrument Air


The quality of instrument air is what distinguishes it from a compressed or service air system. The
most important parameters in specifying air quality are:
Dew Point, Oil Content, Particulates, Temperature
The Instrument Society of America sets quality standards for instrument air in ISA S7.3.

Drying Methods
There are three general methods of drying: Chemical drying, Refrigeration, and Adsorption. Selection
of air drying equipment is based upon required dew point, quantity of air to be dried, pressure of the
incoming air, and excess air capacity of compressor station.

Design Capacity & Users


The plant and instrument air system design capacity are 1400Nm3/hr (3020Nm3/hr in case of Diesel
Max Regeneration) and 4168Nm3/hr respectively at max demand rate. Whole demand is met by a
single compressor but in case of DMax regeneration two compressor used and if both are failure due
to any reason then a portable diesel compressor used.

Air Compressor Package


Air Dryer Package

Air from atmosphere passes through pre-filter and enter in compressor through a control valve which
control density of air entering. 910-C1/A/B two compressor package has 1 steam turbine driven and
1 motor driven centrifugal compressors. After 1st stage pressure increase up to 1.5kg/cm2 and inter
stage cooler cool air to 45oC then after 2nd stage pressure raise to 5.2kg/cm2 and again inter stage
cooler cools air to 45oC. After 3rd stage air compress up to 8.7kg/cm2 and temperature to 109oC and
after cool cools air to 48oC. A diesel compressor DIS390SS can also use as backup in case of both
compressor failure.
The compressors discharge pressurized air to a common Main Air Receiver (910-V1). From this point,
instrument air is passed through Air Dryer Package (910-ME1), while plant air is not dried as bypass
the dryer package and distributed to plant air header through PCV control valve which maintain
header pressure. Air to be used for instrument air is dried using two 100% pressure sewing type
instrument air dryers, one operating and one spare and they are switch after 1month. An instrument
air receiver (910-V2) is located downstream of the air dryers.
The Air Receivers provide reservoir of instrument air in the case of the failure of air compressors. The
total holding time of the vessels is approximately 5 minutes with a pressure transition, when this
pressure is reached the standby compressor will start automatically and re-pressurize the receiver to
7.5 kg/cm2G.

Compressor PACKAGE (Elliott USA)


Filtered air, controlled by an automatically operated inlet valve/guide vanes enters the compressor's
first stage, where it undergoes initial compression.
From the first stage, air passes through an intercooler
which removes much of the heat of compression and
through a moisture elimination section where
moisture is removed. Air is further compressed to final
discharge pressure and cooled down to required
temperature through after cooler.
Compressor Auxiliries are as follows

Suction Filter: Used to filter any dust particles from air. 22cmH2O pressure drop
across filter generate alarm to clean it.
Inlet Valve: Also density control valve, installed to control density of air. Higher density
of air increases compressor load, lower density cause low pressure zone which can
cause surge.
Unloading Valve: Known as anti-surge valve, PCV installed at outlet of compressor
maintain the outlet pressure and discard excess pressure.
1st & 2nd Stage Intercooler: Plate type heat exchanger installed to cool down
compressed air from each stages by Cooling water.
After Cooler: Counter current heat exchanger installed to cool down compressed air to
required supply temperature by cooling water.
Lube Oil System: The lubrication system supplies oil to compressor bearings and
gears. It is cooled down by cooling water (80oC to 30/40oC).
Seal Air System: Installed to separate oil and compressed air in compressor.

Air Dryer Package


Air dryer package removes moisture from air on adsorption principle. Adsorption is a process that
occurs when a gas or liquid solute accumulates on the surface of a solid or a liquid (adsorbent),
forming a molecular or atomic film (the adsorbate). It is different from absorption, in which a
substance diffuses into a liquid or solid to form a solution.
Physisorption or physical adsorption is a type of adsorption in which the adsorbate adheres to the
surface only through Van der Waals (weak intermolecular) interactions, which are also responsible for
the non-ideal behaviour of real gases. Chemisorption is a type of adsorption whereby a molecule
adheres to a surface through the formation of a chemical bond, as opposed to the Van der Waals
forces.
Air Dryer Package consists of following parts
i.
ii.
iii.

Pre-Filter (910-ME1-V2A/B): Used to remove any moisture or oil contamination.


Adsorption Vessels (910-ME1-V1A/B/C/D)
After Filter (910-ME1-V3A/B): Used to remove desiccant material.

Pressure swing adsorption processes rely on the fact that under high pressure, gases tend to
be attracted to solid surfaces, or "adsorbed". The higher the pressure, the more gas is adsorbed;
when the pressure is reduced, the gas is released, or desorbed. PSA processes can be used to
separate gases in a mixture because different gases tend to be attracted to different solid surfaces
more or less strongly. Each train comprises of two beds, one in service and other on regeneration.
Service and regeneration sequence is controlled by PLC based automatic timing sequence (5min)
controller which diverts the air flow by changing the valve position. The cycle can be classified into
following steps.
i.

ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
vi.

Drying: Compressed air passes through bed from bottom while regeneration valves
are closed. Moisture from air is removed by adsorbent and air exit from top and
routed to instrument air receiver 910-V2 through NRVs.
Depressurization: Depressurizing vessel by closing air inlet valve and outlet valve and
opening valve installed towards silencer vent.
Regeneration: During regeneration air is routed from top to bottom and saturated bed
is regenerated and air is vent through vent.
Pressurize: After regeneration silencer valve is closed and air from top pressurize
vessel.
Parallel Drying: For about 5sec both adsorber starts drying before switching.
Switch over: After regeneration air inlet valve is opened for drying and vent closed.

Flare System U-915

Department: U&OM

Flare System U-915


Introduction
Flare system are used to destroy corrosive, toxic, and flammable waste products during process startups or during upset plant conditions. This is achieved by converting them into less harmful products
through combustion.
Whenever industrial plant equipment items are overpressured, the pressure relief valves provided as
essential safety devices on the equipment
automatically release gases and sometimes liquids
as well. The released gases and liquids are routed
through large piping systems called flare headers to
a vertical elevated flare. The size and brightness of
the resulting flame depends upon the flammable
material's flow rate in terms of joules per hour
(or btu per hour).

iv.
v.
vi.

i.
A knockout drum to remove any oil and/or
water from the relieved gases.
A water seal drum to prevent any flashback of the flame from the top of the flare
stack.
An alternative gas recovery system for use during partial plant startups and/or
shutdowns as well as other times when required.
A steam injection system to provide an external momentum force used for efficient
mixing of air with the relieved gas, which promotes smokeless burning.
A pilot flame (with its ignition system) that burns all the time so that it is available to
ignite relieved gases whenever needed.
The flare stack, including a flashback prevention section at the upper part of the flare
stack.

Design Capacity & Sources


This system consists of the main flare system and the acid gas flare system.

Flare System U-915

Department: U&OM

Process Description
Main flare system
Flaring gas and/or liquid is routed to the main flare knockout drum 915-V1 via main flare header. The
main flare knockout drum pumps 915-P1A/B transfer any slop oil collected in 915-V1 to the light slop
tank 945-TK47. From 915-V1 the vapor passes to main flare (stack) 915-ME1, and passes through
the water seal drum provided at the bottom of the flare stack and the dry gas seal in the flare stack,
then is combusted at the flare tip

Acid gas flare system


The acid gas flare is the disposal route for relief system. The streams are collected in an acid gas flare
header, pass through an acid gas flare knockout drum 915-V2, and discharge to the acid gas flare
(stack) 915-ME2. The condensate from 915-V2 is pumped to the sour water degassing drum 810-V10
provided in the Amine Treating Unit by the sour water knockout drum pump 915-P2 A/B.

Flare ignition system


A flare ignition package is provided at the flare knockout drum area which is outside the sterile area.
The flare ignition package consists of the ignition system, the flare burner gas supply system, the
monitoring system, and the control panel. For igniting the flare pilot burners, instrument air and
natural gas are used.

Flash back protection


To prevent air penetration back into the flare header, a dry gas seal and a water seal system are
provided. As a seal gas, fuel gas is introduced continuously from the inlet of flare knockout drums and
flare header ends. As a water seal, plant water is continuously supplied to both water seal drums via
the bypass of seal drum level control valves.

Smokeless steam
To prevent generation of smoke from the main flare, MP steam is injected into the main flare. The
flare tip is provided with a steam ring to promote smokeless operation.

Biological aeration basins and Clarifiers
Sand filters

API Oil/Water Separator Section


Process/utility effluent water or oily storm water from the process waste water lift station is led to API
oil/water separator. The API oil/water separator basins (930-ME3A/B) are equipped with a chain
driven scraper and an automatic rotary drum skimmer at the basin outlet. The API separate oil and
oily sludge from the effluent. The treated water is fed to DAF unit through an equalization tank By API
effluent pumps. The sludge is, then sent to the oily sludge handling system. Separated oil is sent to
Slop Oil holding tanks.
Equalization tank section
The treated API effluent water, neutralized spent caustic and recycled filter back wash water receives
to the equalization tank, to produce a constant feed quality and quantity to the DAF units. The air
supplies to the equalization tank by an equalization tank air compressor through diffusers at the tank
bottom.
DAF unit section

22

Effluent Treatment Plant U-930

Department: U&OM

The API effluent water stored in the equalization tank (930-TK2) transfers at constant flow rate to the
flash mixing basin. Then the ferric chloride as coagulant and DAF polymer are injected by a injection
pump to make flocs. The caustic soda or the sulfuric acid is also dosed to adjust pH. The DAF effluent
is recycled to mix plant air in V-11.
Suspended solids in the waste water collected by the fine bubbles and are accumulated at the
surface of DAF basin as scum. The scum removes by the DAF skimmer and then transfers to the oily
sludge handling system. The DAF bottom sludge removes by the DAF scraper and then transfers to
the oily sludge handling system.
Biological aeration/Clarifier section
The treated effluent from the DAF basins flows by gravity to two biological aeration basins, to reduce
the biological oxygen demand (BOD5) to the acceptable limit of effluent.
The air supplies to the biological aeration basins by air blowers through air diffusers to maintain a
dissolved oxygen (DO) level. The clarifiers (930-ME27A/B) separate the biological solids from the
effluent from the aeration basin. The sludge scraper mechanism installed in the clarifier collects
surface scum is also routed to a bio sludge treatment.
Sand filter section
The clarified water flows by gravity to the rapid gravity type dual media filters which are of rectangular
design and of concrete. The filters are normally repeating the service and back washed by automatic
sequence. Four filters are in operation under full plant flow.
Sanitary Waste Treatment plant
Two packaged rotating biological contactors receive sanitary waste water from the office, buildings,
toilets, and kitchen facilities. The sanitary effluent treat at the aeration section and flows to the
clarifier section. The treated sanitary effluent flows by gravity into a hypochlorite contact tank.
Oily Sludge & Bio Sludge Polymer
Oily sludge from API separator is sent to centrifuge with injection of oily sludge polymer which help to
separate oil from water & Biosludge sent to belt press machine with injection of biosludge polymer
which eject water from sludge then both properly dumped.

Department: U&OM

Process Description
Boiler Makeup Water Treating Section
The Plant is designed to produce demineralized water from 8.5 kg/cm2g design pressure Plant water
at a flow rate of 94 m3/h, with a shift volume of 1200 m3, at a battery limit pressure of 3.5 Kg/cm2g.
Activated carbon adsorption principles 940-50A/B
The activated carbon explicates its adsorption capability by means of its porous structure obtained
firing vegetable matter, such as coconuts, or mineral coal. Plant water pumped by 940-P7A/B is
transfer to Demin Trains and its flow is controlled by control valve to trains. Water enter from top and
all possible suspended solid are removed and water leaves from bottom to cation exchanger. For
regeneration water flows from bottom to top.
Cation Exchanger 940-V51A/B
It means to remove cations from water, replacing them by hydrogen ions, flowing the water through a
bed of cationic resin in hydrogen cycle.

Weak acid resins When a dissolved strong acid salt, such as Calcium Sulfate, crosses a weak acid
resin
Strong acid resins To exchange a dissolved weak acid salt like Sodium Bicarbonate
During the Regeneration, carried out, in this package, with sulphuric acid (1.5 & 3%), the cations fixed
on the resin are removed.

Decarbonator 940-V52A/B
Instead of treat the weak hydrochloric acid on strong anion resins, it is possible to"decarbonate" the
decationized waters. This process uses the Henry's law with which it is easy to strip away from
decationized water the dissolved excess of carbon dioxide.
10 ppm as CO2 obtained.

And residual

Then water is pumped to anion exchanger by 925-P51A/B/C.

26

Steam, Feed Water & Condensate Handling System

Department: U&OM

Anion Exchanger 940-V53A/B


It means to remove anions from decationized water, replacing them by hydroxyl ions OH" The
operation is carried out by percolating the water through a bed of anionic resin in order to remove the
strong acid anions that were produced during the decationization.

Anions of weak acids are removed


following scheme:

according to the

Deanionized water (normally coming after an anionic unit) have an excess of OH Ions that normally
links themselves with Na ions that leaked from the cationic resins. The resultant NaOH base will give
the deionizated water a pH above 7.
During the Regeneration, carried out with sodium hydroxide 3%, the anions on the resin are removed

Mixed bed polisher 940-V54A/B


Polishing demineralization process performs what the previous separated resin's beds cannot
achieve. Some leakage will occur and the so treated water contains some traces of cations and
anions, typically sodium hydroxide and even hardness traces.
A mixed bed is constituted of a mixture of strong cation and strong anion special resins. While during
the exchange process the resins must be thoroughly mixed, their regeneration shall be performed
with resins separated that is done by countercurrent.
After mixed bed polisher DMW send towards storage tanks 940-TK1A/B. For B.F.W. make up in

Tri-Sodium Phosphate is dosed by 940 P60 A / B / C & D (reciprocating pumps) by adjusting their
strokes. One pump is for each Boiler and pump P 60 - D is on back up for all three pumps. TSP keep
salts that are prone to settle at high temp. In suspended form.
Cyclohexane Amine maintain the condensate pH in the range of 8.09.5. It is volatile and distils in
steam to dissolve readily in the condensate. Being alkaline, it neutralizes the carbonic acid present in
steam condensate and thus overcome low pH values and corrosion. Amine is dosed by 940 P54 A / B
(reciprocating pump) by adjusting its strokes. Dosing solution is prepared in dosing tank 940 ME 3B,
by adding 4litres amine and remaining portion filled with Demin water.

Suggestion/Recommendation

Department: U&OM

Suggestions/recommendations

Proper sitting arrangement must be made for the Trainees, and each trainee should be
assigned a technical or managerial task for better training
Boiler soot blowing method must be changed because in most of times chain stuck and soot
blowing stops. Steam soot blowing must be change with air because steam and soot blower
temperature can cause steam to condense, so water sludge will ejected and after sometime it
can erode tubes of boiler
Overflow line at Equalization Tan (930-TK2) in case of level instrument failure
Cooling Tower I.D. fans must have variable speed drivers or variable pitch fans in order to
improve energy utilization
Health of cooling tower louvers should be inspected as few stones and debris were found
broken on ground probably from the top louver
Installation of air pre-heater in furnace to increase efficiency of combustion
Instead of converting HP steam to MP steam or MP-LP by BFW injection, install a heat
exchanger that would heat up boiler feed water to lower its temp. & pressure
Installation of Flare Gas Recovery System that takes gases from knockout drum and
compress them to liquefy them. After liquefaction pump liquid to CDU and flare noncondensable gases
Synchronization of Excel based sheet with supervisors cabins to keep interact them with
process, they have to contact with DCS operator to handle any problem
