Brimstone’s Advanced Sulfur Recovery Course covers advanced topics in sulfur recovery and is designed to expand and broaden the existing knowledge of your plant operators, engineers, and supervisors. A course such as this is possible due to the extensive hands-on experience of our outstanding instructional staff, many of whom have worked as Subject Matter Experts for their respective companies.  (Click to view our instructional staff.) Their vast experience allows informative back-and-forth exchanges on a wide range of sulfur recovery topics.

This course is aimed at people with at least two years of experience in the areas of sulfur recovery and amine treating. That said, we feel that even attendees with SME-level experience will leave with new and useful information.

Brimstone’s week-long Advanced Sulfur Recovery Course differs from our (and other) “fundamentals” courses in both structure and content.  Like our well-known Sulfur Recovery Symposia, the goal is to involve everyone in highly interactive discussions that are informative to all attendees. This advanced course covers and helps answer deeper topics including questions like:

• What can we do to ensure ammonia destruction? Or BTEX destruction?
• Will our Claus or TGU catalyst last to the next turnaround?
• What are the safe ways to light or re-light a Claus reaction furnace (thermal reactor)?
• How do I evaluate the validity of the various pieces of data from my operating unit?
• Which design parameters are critical in thermal reactor/waste heat boiler design?
• How do we safely sample lean and rich amine solvent to ensure reliable analysis?
• What are the guidelines for identifying and correcting corrosion problems?
• How should we interpret the results of a detailed amine HSS analysis?
• What can we do to prevent and manage SO₂ breakthroughs in the tail gas unit?
• What are the best ways to manage catalyst in order to maximize operating life?

Periodically, attendees will be divided into small groups to work together on tasks such as:

• process troubleshooting and plant data interpretation
• equipment evaluation and selection
• maintenance issues and downtime minimization
• startup and shutdown procedures

The Brimstone Advanced Sulfur Recovery Course will feature an afternoon session working with the highly respected ProTreat^® Sulfur Recovery and Gas Treating Simulator, guided by the Optimized Gas Treating staff. Such exercises help provide a better understanding of important parameters that affect the operation of their plants and are extremely helpful in teaching how to optimize and troubleshoot these sulfur processing units.

For the first time, Brimstone is offering our training courses both as live, in-person classroom sessions and in virtual form via Zoom.
