  • Schedule

Description:

This program’s content is geared to improve further knowledge and experience with Sulphur recovery, Tail gas treatment, and Incineration process applications. Instructors will cover topics ranging from the basic process principles to items of current interest to become more familiar with specific challenges in these processes and how to deal with these challenges effectively in practice. Program participants will transfer and share knowledge and best practices regarding sulfur processes.

Instructor:  


Alfred E. (Al) Keller retired from Conoco/ConocoPhillips/Phillips 66 as director of Treating and Sulfur Processing in 2017. Over a 35-year career, he was involved in implementation of the first high level oxygen enriched SRUs, and led the development of the first commercial ion exchange based amine HSS removal (HSSX™) and regenerable particle (SSX™) and oil removal systems (HCX™) for amine solutions. He also led development of SPOC™ technology for replacing SRU burners/thermal reactors with a catalytic reaction system. Al led the development of pre-sulfur pit sulfur degassing technology (ICOn™). He earned 32 US patents for these processes as well as processes for syngas production and HF acid recovery. He developed the training modules for ConocoPhillips/Phillips 66 for amine, sour water, SRU, TGU and caustic treating, and developed/delivered an amine and sour water training course for Brimstone STS. Al currently provides consulting services via Becht in treating and sulfur processing for refineries.
