The Challenge An existing Ariel JGH/2 compressor Operator in Pennsylvania had an op-erational problem in a gas turbine booster application. The compressor system was designed to feed compressed natural gas into a turbine at a constant discharge pres-sure. The actual gas flow in the application is based on the requirements of the tur-bine which is dictated by the power de-mand on the system. The existing suction scrubber was un-dersized and inadequately removed water from the moist gas stream. As a result, the compression rate and required pressure were difficult to main-tain. The Equipment Turbine Model: Ariel JGH/2 Flow Rate: 300 ACFM Gas Temperature: 100 Degrees F Operating Pressure: 125 PSI Gas Stream: Saturated Methane

The Solution Solberg built a 150 PSI rated ASME code pres-sure vessel (PCSS Series) to replace the existing suction scrubber. The vessel was equipped with a Teflon coated polyester filter element (99.97% efficient for water and fine particulate re-moval.) The element is designed to have a ser-vice interval of one year, which makes it mainte-nance free. The solution was devised in conjunction the Op-erator. The solution fit into their existing piping arrangement and was installed with minimal sys-tem modifications. Installation The Operator handled the installation at their plant in Pennsylvania. Solberg technical support and engineering were in constant communication with the Operator during the process to ensure all questions were answered and challenges resolved.

Results Periodic reviews are conducted to en-sure that all needs are met. At this point, the Operator is pleased with the water removal and more efficient com-pressor performance.
