Coldflow 350 - Biodiesel Winter Additive

Is your biodiesel ready for winter?

This post is to help our customers maximise the potential of Coldflow 350 and 402 in their biodiesel’s.

To achieve the lowest pour points of biodiesel using Coldflow 350/402 there are a few basics which must be adhered to allow your fuel to reach low pour points which in turn will help your biodiesel run through the winter.  Coldflow 350 is a biodiesel winter additive for biodiesel blends made from good quality oils like used cooking oils which contain less than 10% palm oils or heavy oils.  Coldflow 402 is for biodiesel’s made from 10% or more Palm oils or other heavy oils with poor pour points.

  • Do not add the Coldflow products to your biodiesel when it is already cold.  The chemistry behind the Coldflow range poison’s the sites where crystals are forming in the fuel and delays this from happening until a much lower temperature has been achieved.  This will not happen if there are crystals currently formed in the fuel as they have already been formed.
  • For the best results when adding the Coldflow range the biodiesel must be at least 5 deg C above the pour point of the fuel.  To gauge the pour point of your fuel its a simple test.  Take a sample of your fuel when produced and leave in a freezer and let it begin to freeze.  As the biodiesel freezes you will see clouding occur which is the beginning of the crystals forming.  At this point take a temperature reading and add 5 deg C.  This is the pour point of your fuel.
  • Now you have the optimum temperature for your biodiesel to blend the Coldflow into your fuel.  To achieve the best results you must mix the Coldflow’s into the fuel very thoroughly.  To do this we recommend either a mixing paddle or a recirculation pump.  If you are using a re-circulation pump we suggest adding the Coldflow to the fuel and re-circulating for at least 20 minutes to ensure the product has mixed into the solution.
  • The Coldflow range has a particle size sub 1 micron so will easily pass through 1 micron filters.  We do suggest though that if you are centrifuging your biodiesel after adding the Coldflow it does have the potential to be removed.  So if possible centrifuge the biodiesel before you add the Coldflow’s.
  • Dilution rates, as mentioned earlier we suggest ascertaining the level that you biodiesel begins to gel to achieve a baseline for your fuel.  We then recommend running small-scale lab tests with different dilutions to achieve a level that suits your fuel.  Chemiphase recommends a dilution rate of between 3 & 5 Litres of Coldflow’s per 1000 Litres of biodiesel.  Try a small-scale 3:1000 Litre sample, a 4:1000 Litre sample and a 5:1000 Litre sample to see the benefits of adding a little bit more.  You may find the 5 Litre per 1000 Litres of biodiesel achieves -25 deg C and may be far too high for the Uk.  If this is thee case you may be happier using a 3 Litre per 1000.
  • If you are blending your biodiesel with mineral diesel the Coldflow range will act as a winter additive for the biodiesel and the mineral diesel.
I hope this helps but if you need more information please do get in contact with us as we would be more than happy to help.  For more information on the coldflow range please click here

Biokatz Biological Drain Treatment – The Natural Drain Treatment

November 2, 2011 1 comment

Natural Drain Treatment Which Stops Drains Blocking With Fat & Grease

Biokatz Drain Block is a biological treatment for fat and grease which is the most common cause blocked drains. Biokatz blocks are being used by food manufacturing companies / fast food outlets etc where fat and grease is used / produced in large quantities.  Generally fat and grease deposits make there way to the drains where it cools and hardens and blocks the drain / pit.  At this point generally a drain clearing machine is required to be called out or the drain is manually dug out to clear the blockage.  Both are very expensive and time consuming.  The solution is the Biokatz Drain Block!

Benefits

  • The Biokatz Drain Block is submerged directly to the drain / pit and held using a drawstring.  This will enable the Biokatz Drain Block to rise and fall with the flow of the outlet pipe where the fat and grease build up.
  • Once the Biokatz drain block is activated in the water it will begin to release bacteria which will consume the fat and grease build ups and keep the drain flowing.
  • Biokatz Drain Blocks will continue to work for 365 days a year
  • Biokatz Drain Blocks are very cost effective against drain clearance costs and manual digging out
  • 1 Block will last for 2 months from insertion
  • No Harmful or Toxic Chemicals required.  Biokatz blocks are classed as a Non Hazardous Product

 How it works:

Bio-Katz products use live Bacterial Cultures and their Free Enzymes to Effectively Digest organic Waste & Odours.  Bacteria are living uni-cellular micro-organisms and they are present throughout our environment.  In our Bio-Katz products we have formulated several bacteria strains to essentially degrade waste, control odours and remove specific unwanted chemicals. In essence the bacteria species are very effective decomposing and digesting organic material.  All bacteria must eat to stay alive. So bacteria produce Enzymes which break down organic wastes into a liquid form that then can be absorbed by our bacteria. Subsequently the bacteria convert the absorbed liquids into carbon dioxide and water which are harmless to our environment. Enzymes are actually catalysts which initiate the chemical processes involved in digestion.

 

Contra to popular misconception neither bacteria nor their enzyme secretions are miniature carnivorous insects, chewing up waste material. Rather, bacteria are like sponges that absorb organic waste that has been previously liquefied by enzymes. The bacteria will subdivide approximately every 20 minutes into two identical and fully functional duplicates of the original. This reproduction will continue with time and as long as there is an adequate amount of food source exists to fuel the process. The higher the Bacterial Count will produce, increased enzyme activity which then results in faster decomposition and digestion of organic waste materials.  We apply this technology to eliminate waste and unwanted odours to control Fat/Grease traps, odour control and cleaning actions. Compared to our competitor products that contain caustic or other potential harmful chemicals currently used.  Bio-Katz products contain carefully formulated bacteria which they and their enzymes produce a safe solution for your application and our environment.

Ship Waste Oil Recycling – Remove excess water from your waste oil

CP 2600- Ship Sludge Conditioner Range 

The CP 2600 Range has been specifically designed for the shipping industry, Chemiphase have manufactured a sludge conditioner range that can help maritime operators reclaim the expense of dealing with tank sludge, bilge water and slop oil.

For many years ships have been obliged to dispose of their sludge oil on a regular basis at great expense and at great inconvenience.  The source of the problem is the high water content of the sludge oil which causes the sludge tank to fill up  quickly and the sludge oil to be of no value, or worse, a costly disposal problem.  Each Ship Sludge Conditioner from the CP 2600 Range is specifically designed to meet each ship’s  individual requirements.  Our process is simple, we sample the sludge, test and evaluate our solution from our CP 2600 range and then recommend a cost effective and highly effective ship sludge conditioner for each ship.

Chemiphase have carried out considerable research and development into these problems and from work carried out with major shipping companies has formulated a cost effective solution, the CP – 2600 Ship Sludge Conditioner range.  The CP 2600 range are harmless, environmentally acceptable chemicals which will aid separation of the water from the oil.  They are highly effective because they stay in the oil phase and continue working, even when the water has been discharged.

Benefits

  • The Ship Sludge Conditioner will typically reduce the high water content of a sludge therefore reducing the frequency of the emptying of the sludge tank.
  • The quality of the oil after treatment with the Chemiphase Sludge Conditioner has been found, in a number of cases, to be high enough to reuse on board.  Thus disposal costs are eliminated altogether.  In other cases the cost of disposal has been reduced due to the higher quality being produced.
  • The oil content of the separated water has typically been found to be less than 15ppm which will allow safe discharge and complete compliance with Marine Pollution Regulations.
  • Not all sludge oils are the same due to the many different sources of sludge.  Therefore often the sludge conditioner has to be customized for a particular ship.  Chemiphase will carry out this development in its laboratory and will manufacture to suit this need.

Chemiphase are currently supplying several major shipping lines which are enjoying the benefits of using the Chemiphase products.  The current customer base for the Ship Sludge Conditioner includes:

  • Stena Sealink
  • P & O Ferries
  • North Sea Ferries
  • Brittany Ferries

At Chemiphase we take great pride in offering green , enviromentally sustainable chemical solutions and as such all the products in the CP 9000 range are produced using enviromentally friendly methods and where possible, are formulated to be fully biodegrageable

Contact us directly on 08456 432 900 for further information about our free testing & sample of the Ship Sludge Conditioner range to see the benefits for yourselves.

Biological H2S Scavengers for the #Oilfield Sector

October 27, 2011 Leave a comment

For the past 8 years Chemiphase Ltd has been working on an environmental biological treatment process to reduce the presence of Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) in crude oil production.

This biological “process” entails the natural and environmental production of specific micro-organisms which essentially utillize biological pathways to convert the Hydrogen Sulphide Gas/liquid to safe components like sulphate ions.

 “Biokatz H2S Treat Process”

This Process has been devised to control the presence of Hydrogen Sulphide and the micro-organisms that produce the H2S. How the process works, is relatively simple to describe.

Chemiphase has formulated a biological treatment that contains a range of micro-organism strains, classed in biological terms as “chemo-lithotrophiles” that are known to effectively oxidise H2S, in stages that ultimately will oxidise all sulphide ions present to soluble sulphates.

In order for these “chemo-lithotrophiles organisms” to continually control the variable concentrations of H2S in the crude oil there is a requirement to produce a continuous stream of bacteria product.

To ensure these bacteria populations are continuously created Chemiphase has designed & built a static bioreactor. This bio-reactor is capable of continually growing up the organisms, at the correct concentration through variable temperature and weather conditions.

The nature of these chemo-lithotrophic organisms can be best described as a facultative species, which means they are able to live in either aerobic (oxygen is present) or anaerobic (where no oxygen is present) conditions.

As a general rule the organisms will:

  • Under Aerobic conditions, use oxygen to oxidise any H2S species present to a more oxidised species.

                          H2S + 20                                           2H+ + SO42-

     Hydrogen Sulphide   Oxygen             Hydrogen ions     Sulphate ions

  • Under Anaerobic conditions use typical “oxygen donor“species that Chemiphase has added in the form of liquid nitrates or other nitrogen/carbon oxides to the bio-reactors nutrient package.

5H2S + 8N0             4N2 + 5SO42- + 4H2O + 2H+

 Hydrogen Sulphide       Nitrate Nitrogen  Sulphate Water  Hydrogen ions

Therefore by using the two processes above we have been able to create the essential environmental conditions that favour the “oxidizing conditions”.

Achieving this state of Oxidising will then allow the treatment organisms to slow down the “in-situ bacteria’s scenario of producing Hydrogen Sulphide”, and allow the treatment oxidizing bacteria process to grow and out compete the inherent SRB reducing bacteria populations.

The “Oxidation products formed” with this treatment approach are:

  • Sulphates (SO42-)
  • hydrogen radicals (2H+)
  • And under Anoxic conditions free nitrogen and water. (4N2 + 4H2O)

These environmentally safe oxidation bi-products are re-injected along with the collected “produced water stream” back into the reservoir via a dedicated water injection well.

To Ensure our treatment process Continually reduces the presence of Hydrogen Sulphide the Bio-Reactor must run accordingly:

  1. By adding the correct bio-nutrients and at the correct levels along with the specific chemo-lithotrophic microbial strains mentioned will alter the environment to suit our “Oxidising Conditions”
  2. To Ensure the correct levels of both components above, we use a Bio-reactor, designed to maintain, good mixing capabilities, temperature control and an environment for nurturing the growth of our biological strains, to the desired treatment levels. So the chosen bioreactor conditions will create sufficiently large populations of the intended bacteria strains –please see notes on Bioreactor below
  3. Finally by continuous dosing the produced bacteria stream from the bio-reactor to selected points within the “wells” engineering process will then show the reductions in Hydrogen Sulphide.

To Summarize the technical discussion:

Our “Biokatz H2S Treat”. biological process is particularly effective for combating H2S produced by Suphate Reducing Bacteria (SRB’s) since it is well known in nature and documented in many technical literature.

  • That the speed of the oxidation process is considerably faster than of the anaerobic reduction process that produces the H2S.
  • Normal conventional chemical scrubbing units are termed as stoichiometric reaction, meaning 1 kilo of H2S present will require 5 kilos of Scavenger to remove the 1 kilo of H2S. So High levels of H2S will result in very high levels of Scavenger. Resulting in high levels of Chemical Wastes
  • The “Biokatz H2S Treat”. biological process is described as a non-stoichiometric process meaning — it does not require specific amounts of bacteria present to oxidise current levels of H2S. ie. 1 kilo of bacteria to 1 kilo of H2S.
  • The actual biological process of Oxidation of Hydrogen Sulphide to Sulphate ions is the following:
  1. Sulphide (S2-)
  2. Sulphur    (So )
  3. Thiosulphate (S2O32- )
  4. Tetrathionate (S4O62- )
  1. Sulphite   (SO32- )  
  2. Sulphate   (SO32- )            

 THE BIOREACTOR PROCESS:

The bioreactor has altered dramatically over the 8 year period of dosing. From our continuous research we have been able to reduce the size of the system and increase the effectiveness many fold.

Part 2 The bio reactor consists of the following:

  • Nutrient Dosing Unit:
    • A variable timed liquid Nutrient dosing system that is capable of adding nutrient to a bio mixing chamber when required.
    • The nutrient product CP-1055 is a specific blend of inorganic & organic additives as described in the Material safety data sheet attached.
    • Biological dosing Unit
      • A variable timed liquid Concentrated Biological dosing system that is capable of adding bacteria to a bio mixing chamber when required.
      • The Biological product CP-1055 is a specific blend of specific chemo-lithotrophic microbial strains as described in the Material safety data sheet attached.
      • Heating system that will control the mixing chamber’s temperature between 25-32 degC at all times
      • Fresh Water system that will add required fresh water make up to the mixing chamber when required
      • Aeration system that essentially ensures a dissolved oxygen level within the mixing chamber is achieved at all times.
      • Re-circulation system for the mixing chamber to ensure all contents are continuously mixed to achieve maximum contact between nutrients and bacteria for optimum growth rates. The bateria concentration prior to dosing the FWKO vessel is controlled between (1×106–1×108) Colonies per ml (millilitre)
      • Dosing Pump that will add a specific amount of timed bio reactor product to FWKO vessel. We are currently adding 3 tonnes per day of bio-product to the system on a timer basis.

The Oil/water production system details:

The production of oil is around 4500 BOPD (barrel of oil per day) which consists of produced and power fluid.

  • The “produced Water” is around 2100 BWPD (barrel water per day) which is cleaned of oil and then re-injected.
  • The dry oil and the biokatz treatment is then returned to the power fluid tank for re-injection down the oil wells.
  • The “Biokatz H2S Treat” Stream is then transported down the well, the bacterial product will then coat all surfaces, due to their ability to reasonably motile i.e. Places where the bacteria will coat:
    • Pipe surfaces
    • Pump
    • Lip of the formation

 Results to date:

We believe the bioreactor is treating the varying H2s levels exceptionally well. The true effectiveness of the system as it is deployed at present can be judged from the H2S levels in the gas leg of the 1st Stage Separator.

The results have clearly shown:

  • During periods when the bacteria populations have not been injected into the separator, H2S levels can reach levels greater than 20 ppm (considered sour).
  • All of the times when the bioreactor is in operation the H2S levels have been shown to remain relatively consistant.
  • Effective operation of the system also results in a recognizable improvement in the odour in the vicinity of the separator.
  • We believe the use of this “Biokatz H2S Treat” scavenging system” has extended the period of time between recharging of the Sulphatreat Towers and thus reduces overall levels of waste arising and associated replenishment costs.

SUMMARY:

In effect, use of a biological H2S scavenging system extends the period of time between recharging of the Sulphatreat towers and thus reduces overall levels of waste arising and associated replenishment costs.

The system also provides the opportunity to reduce the dosage rates of the more expensive chemical treatment H2S scavenger. Since the process is Environmental, proven to be cost effective and produces at least as benign wastes as the processes which it supports, we believe that it constitutes a Best Available Techniques polishing system.

The latest development in #Oilfield Scavengers

October 25, 2011 Leave a comment

CP 1991 – Hydrogen Sulphide Scavenger

CP 1991 is a fast acting hydrogen sulphide scavenger for hydrogen sulphide contamination of well fluids, crude oil, oily water and water systems.  H2S Removal will take place very rapidly providing good mixing takes place.  CP 1991 is an oxidising agent so monitoring of corrosion is advisable downstream of the injection points.

CP 1991 must be injected neat into the fluids at a point where good mixing occurs to optimise the removal rate of the H2S from both the oil and gas phase.  Injection of CP 1991 should be continuous as possible in order to maintain a uniform distribution of the scavenger within the fluid.  Please note, use of a positive displacement type pumps are not recommended.  Typical dosage rates will vary from 2-20 litres CP 1991 per kg of removed H2S from the gas

Benefits

  • Fast acting H2S Scavenger
  • Effective on well fluids, crude oil, oily water and water systems
  • Rapid removal

CP 1995 – Oilfield Oxygen Scavenger

CP 1995 is used to remove dissolved oxygen from feed water that is used for water injection systems and hydrostatic tests.  Removal of oxygen from the water will control oxygen pitting corrosion.  CP 1995 is highly concentrated meaning removal will take place very rapidly providing good mixing takes place.  CP 1995 does not react with oxygen in the air.

CP 1995 should be dosed undiluted into the injection water after the deaerator or to a point where air/water contact is no longer possible.  Recommended dosages : Deaerated water injection systems – 4-20 ppm, Open water injection systems – 10 – 20 ppm per 1 ppm of dissolved oxygen.

Benefits:

  • Removes dissolved oxygen from feed water
  • Controls oxygen pitting corrosion
  • Highly concentrated
  • Rapid removal

Biodegradable Corrosion Inhibitors for the #Oilfield Industry

October 25, 2011 1 comment

CP 9000 – Oilfield Corrosion Inhibitor Range

The CP 9000 Oilfield Corrosion Inhibitor Range are corrosion inhibitors that control the corrosion in oil water systems and ensure protection from acidic species. The CP 9000 range provides excellent filming properties over a broad pH range.

The extraction of gas and oil from and well is more often than not accompanied by water, either from formation, condensation or water injection. Acidic gases are present in the produced fluids and along with a high level of O2 act to increase the corrosivity of the water to steel. This corrosive action is further complicated by the flow regime, temperature differences along a pipeline and pressure changes which can all add up to not only effect the corrosivity level, but also the corrosivity mechanisms.

Corrosion problems can vary from site to site due to variances in components such as oilfield brine, operating temperatures, hydrocarbon composition to name but a few. Chemiphase have a wealth of knowledge, gained from our working partnerships with oil producers both in the UK and Europe, and as such have an extensive catalogue of corrosion inhibitors within the CP9000 range. The CP 9000 Oilfield Corrosion Inhibitor Range has a number of products to combat any corrosion issues, under any onsite conditions.

Benefits

  • The CP 9000 range is oil soluble product that controls corrosion in oil / water systems. 
  • The CP 9000 range will provide excellent filming properties over a wide pH range band. 
  • The CP 9000 range ensures excellent corrosion protection against acidic species. 
  • The CP 9000 range provides a cost effective corrosion treatment for systems which have varying processing conditions and metallurgy.

At Chemiphase we carry out on site analysis  then fully re-analyse back in the laboratory to ensure that the product we recommend is the best possible fit.  Once a product has been recommended we offer on-site technical assistance for the product dosage rates and application points.  This on-site technical service will continue to ensure that the product remains the best solution as the oilfield changes over the years

At Chemiphase we take great pride in offering green , environmentally sustainable chemical solutions and as such all the products in the CP 9000 range are produced using environmentally friendly methods and where possible, are formulated to be fully biodegradeable
