Ethylene Glycol Recovery System

Deep Ocean was contracted to provide detailed engineering for a new Ethylene Glycol Recovery System within an existing chemical processing plant. The brownfield nature of the project required careful integration of new process equipment and piping networks into a highly congested existing spatial environment. Process engineering parameters were established to optimize recovery efficiency.
