n: 1. A vertical, cylindrical vessel that recovers heavier hydorcarbons from a mixture of predominantly lighter hydrocarbons. Also called absorption tower. 2. A vessel in which gas is dehydrated by being bubbled through glycol. See absorb.

n: It refers to the row tube holding thezinky
material during the analysis of drilling fluid. Used to survey the content
of H2S.

a vertical, cylindrical vessel that recovers heavier (longer carbon chain) hydrocarbons from a mixture of lighter hydrocarbons.

n: a substance able to remove water from another substance with which it is in contact. It may be liquid (e.g., triethylene glycol) or solid (e.g., silica gel).

n: a liquid chemical used in gas processing to remove water from the gas. See glycol. glycol dehydrator.

ethylene glycol mono-butyl ether. A mutual solvent.

n: a colourless liquid used as an antifreeze and as a dehydration medium in removing water from gas. See glycol, glycol dehydrator.

n: a piping arrangement that permits heat from one fluid to be transferred to another fluid as they travel counter currently to one another. In the heat exchanger of an emulsion-treating unit, heat from the outgoing clean oil is transferred to the incoming well fluid, cooling the oil and heating the well fluid. In the heat exchanger of a glycol dehydration unit, heat from the hot lean glycol flows through the inner flow tube in the opposite direction of the cool rich glycol, which flows through a shell built around the tube.

n: a device used in a glycol dehydration system installed where water is being removed from gas condensate;the separator removes glycol from the gas condensate.

n: a group of compounds used to dehydrate gaseous or liquid hydrocarbons or to inhibit the formation of hydrates. Glycol is also used in engine radiators as an antifreeze. Commonly used glycols are ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, and triethylene glycol.

a hydrate inhibitor or freeze-up preventer.

n: a cylinder consisting of several perforated trays with bubble caps mounted over the perforations and functioning as a part of a glycol dehydration system.

n: a processing unit used to remove all or most of the water from gas. A glycol unit usually includes an absorber, in which the wet gas is put into contact with glycol to remove the water, and a reboiler, which heats the wet glycol to remove the water from it so that it can be recycled.
