Water Deoxygenation System - Corrosion Control without use of scavengers - Flaring reduction

Page last modified
September 26 2024

Moreld Minox is a leading provider of deaeration solutions bringing state of the art technology to the IOR water injection market worldwide. The Minox Deoxygenation process is a gas stripping process where ultra pure nitrogen gas is used to remove dissolved oxygen from water without the use of oxygen scavenging chemicals. The nitrogen gas is continuously circulated and regenerated in a closed loop. To remove the oxygen from the nitrogen gas, a catalytic reaction process is applied. The Minox process can be designed to meet any practical demand for reduction of oxygen content in water, and is recognized by the industry as the most efficient way to deoxygenate water. The process operates on positive pressure, and the compact system requires small footprint and height. Depending on the type of contacting method applied between the nitrogen gas and the water, two different types of Minox Deoxygenation systems can be delivered, Minox®Compact 2 stage and Minox®Tower. 
The 2-stage Minox system provides efficient and reliable water deoxygenation for offshore and onshore applications. The new Minox 5th gen. comes without compressors making the system even more robust and reliable. The Minox stripping technology can efficiently replace fuel Gas towers to reduce flaring. Replacing/upgrading your Gas Fuel Towers with a Minox will reduce CO2 emissions from routine flaring and will help fulfilling the World Bank's requirement of Zero Routine Flaring (ZRF) by 2030.
