First Class Design for Protection of the Environment

RATE ADVANCED CLEAN TECHNOLOGIES (RATE-ACT)
Emission regulations are getting tighter and there is increasing demand to achieve higher sulphur and gas processing recovery and removal. As the environmental regulations have become more stringed around the world the investors are pushing for 10 ppmv of SO2 stack or zero emissions. The necessity of 10 ppmv of SO2 from the stack is real.

RATE has recently patented new processes for integrating sulphur recovery methods in oil and gas industries. As environmental regulations have become more stringent around the world owners are having to confront the need for SO2 stack emissions of 10 ppmv or less. The necessity of 10 ppmv of SO2 from the stack is real and has become standard in some areas. Even though the requirements are not universal however, each facility has to upgrade to a lower emissions that set by their government agencies. RATE-ACT “Advanced Clean Technologies” and SO2 Emission Control cover various options and the existing facilities can be upgraded as needed by implementing minimum steps only to achieve the new regulations
