Dehydration Unit merupakan salah satu unit yang berada di Extraction Plant PT
Perta-Samtan Gas yang berfungsi untuk memisahkan water content yang
terkandung di dalam gas dengan menggunakan molecular sieve. Jenis molecular
sieve yang digunakan adalah NK-10B-Siliporite. Molecular sieve bekerja
berdasarkan prinsip adsorben. Molecular sieve menyerap water content yang
masuk sehingga kandungan water content yang tersisa maksimal 0,1 ppmv.
Efisiensi molecular sieve dapat ditinjau dengan memperhatikan kandungan water
content yang masuk equipment dan yang keluar equipment. Sebanyak 220,6623
Kg water content diadsorb hingga kadarnya mencapai 0,0086 Kg. Water content
sebanyak 220,6538 Kg terakumulasi pada pori-pori molecular sieve. Molecular
sieve yang terlah jenuh, diregerasi kembali menggunakan lean gas untuk
menguapkan seluruh kandungan water content yang terakumulasi. Berdasarkan
data tersebut, maka efisiensi penyerapan molecular sieve tersebut mencapai
99,9961%
Abstract
Dehydration Unit is one of the units located at the PT Perta-Samtan Gas
Extraction Plant to separate the water content in the gas stream by using molecular
sieve. Type of molecular sieve used is NK-10B-Siliporite. Molecular sieve using a
adsorbent principle. The molecular sieve adsorbs water content until water content
left at 0.1 ppmv. The efficiency of molecular sieves can be observed by input of
water content that enters the equipment andout of equipment. As much of
220.6623 Kg of water content adsorbed until levels reach 0.0086 Kg. Water
content as much as 220.6538 Kg accumulates on molecular sieve pores. Molecular
sieve that has been saturated, can be regenate using lean gas to evaporate all
accumulated water content. Based on these data, the efficiency of molecular sieve
absorption reached 99.9961%
