Benefits of MPPE Systems

 

Transport of the MPPE Statoil/Hydro Ormen Lange unit (Norway)

Very High Separation Performance

Reduction factor 1,000,000 times = 99.9999% removal if required

Cost Competitive

Cost competitiveness proven compared with air stripping and activated carbon, steam stripping and biotreatment systems

 Low Energy Concumption

  • Low energy input to release hydrocarbons from MPPE particles (in situ renegeration)
  • Energy consumption up to 50 times lower than steam stripping

Robust, No Fouling

  • Anaerobic operation at ambient temperature. No interference from dissolved iron, heavy metals, surfactants, salt and polar compounds, and no scaling
  • No biological fouling because of perodic in situ regeneration by steam

Reliable and Easy Operation

  • Fully automated
  • Remote control using laptop and mobile telephone

Flexible Operation

Once installed, the unit can treat higher and lower flows and concentrations. For example, if the concentration is 50% higher, effluent requirements can still be maintained with only a 10% lower flow.

At lower feed concentrations, higher flows can be treated while still meeting the effluent demand
