Removal of iron oxides/sulfides (black powder) in natural gas feeds to ethylene and ammonia plants is a key challenge in the petrochemical and chemical industries. Equally challenging is the removal of water/brine from liquid feeds such as naphtha, propane and propylene. This webinar will review advanced filtration and separation technologies used to remove solid contaminants from gas feeds and water from liquid feeds. Emphasis will be placed on plant optimization and performance.

Traditionally fine chemical synthesis involving hydrogenation has been performed in batch processes and for industrial hydrogenations in fixed-bed processes by using metal supported on oxidic or carbon powder carriers.

The last REACH registration deadline for chemicals placed on the European market is May 31, 2018 – only two months away. Data sharing and joint submission of data are mandatory requirements through which companies or groups of companies can reduce the costs of registration, make the most of their Lead Registrant position, and avoid unnecessary testing. Negotiations are currently placed under significant pressure as the deadline approaches, many substances remain to be registered and new implementing rules and guidance have to be considered compared to the 2010 and 2013 deadlines.

Supply chain planning in SAP is an ongoing process rather than a one-time event. This impetus for continuous improvement is particularly strong in the Chemicals industry and manifests itself via pressure on asset utilization, customer service and working capital and cost management. Come listen to Steve MacCorkle from INVISTA and Tom Chason from SCMO2 discuss lessons learned in implementing and continuing to optimize Supply Chain planning with SAP in a globally integrated chemical supply chain.
