Sulfur-resistant compressors and sulfur-resistant reheaters – are there any commercial products available? Seeking recommendations

Thread Content

We have designed a sulfur-resistant unit whose operating conditions, aside from temperature, are identical to those of the sulfur-resistant shift process in coal chemistry. It involves converting the crude syngas obtained from gasification directly at high temperatures. Currently, a portion of the gas exiting the first adiabatic reactor needs to be recycled; are there any sulfur-resistant compressors available for use under such conditions in industry? The hydrogen sulfide concentration is 0.1–0.4%, with a certain amount of water vapor present. It would be better if it could be used at high temperatures. Additionally, the gas exiting the reactor needs to pass through a heat exchanger; the gas temperature is 600–650 °C. The gas consists mainly of methane, CO, H2, as well as hydrogen sulfide at a concentration of 0.1–0.4%, along with a certain amount of water vapor. I was wondering if there are any heat exchangers suitable for use under sulfur-containing conditions in industrial applications. I hope colleagues who are familiar with this area can recommend some suppliers
