Testing

Onsite

A powerful assessment

Testing adsorbents with actual feedstocks is a recognized and increasingly popular approach to evaluate the performances and limitations of adsorbents used for purification processes.

INNOV-ADS raises unique opportunities to test new products in real conditions for the mutual benefit of operators and adsorbents manufacturers.

Basket testing

A straightforward way to evaluate and compare adsorbents by placing small baskets inside the industrial unit adsorbent bed.

INNOV-ADS handle benchmarking projects from top to bottom offering a hassle-free experience for the operators. INNOV-ADS contact adsorbent suppliers, collect samples for the specific application, then conceive, manufacture and supply customized baskets with adapted designs.

The analysis of the retrieved products following the run and the comparison with fresh adsorbent provides insightful data on the products behavior and performances during operation.

Real feedstocks

Adsorbents face actual unit conditions.

Parallel testing

Baskets contain multiple compartments.

Adsorber mapping

Baskets are loaded in different locations.

Sidestream testing

A powerful method to evaluate the performances of adsorbents by connecting a pilot test rig to the industrial unit. Saturation capacities and concentration profiles in dynamic conditions can be assessed.

INNOV-ADS specialists design, install and operate ATEX/IECEx compliant test skids and are trained and qualified to operate these equipment in challenging industrial environment.

Case study

An Oil & Gas operator is processing a challenging natural gas condensate on an offshore platform in the South East Asia region.

Limited feedback on operation is available for mercury removal in the envisioned conditions and to prepare the future installation of a new mercury removal unit, the operator wishes to evaluate the performances of various products available on the market.

INNOV-ADS handled the design and assembly of a dedicated adsorbent test rig, then later installed and operated this equipment offshore for several weeks.

The project allowed to establish a ranking of adsorbents and to gather critical information for the installation of the new unit.

Spent products analyzes

Onsite testing is perfectly complemented by specific laboratory tests to evaluate the performances of adsorbents in operation.

INNOV-ADS develops specific laboratory methods and tests protocols to evaluate the actual performances and potential of adsorbents used during the site tests.
