thread_title: Need more information

message: I just finished a major expansion of the this article and I have removed the stub tag because I think it is no longer warrants a stub. The article could still use more Wiki links, external links and references. mbeychok 06:05, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Major expansion

message: Mbeychok, I don't know if you're still out there, but I propose changing the title from Amine gas treating to Amine Sweetening. While Amine gas treating is technically a correct name for this process, Amine Sweetening is more commonly used in the literature and industry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.81.36.178 (talk) 18:30, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Title Change?

message: Do WSA and the new section recently added really belong in this article? Neither involve alkanolamines in the traditional sense and neither can really be referred to as "Amine Sweetening" or "Amine Gas Treating" systems? Their inclusion would necessitate the inclusion of other chemical processes such as caustic treating, potassium carbonate or "Hot Pot", etc. Physical solvents would need to be included as well, such as Selexol, Rectisol, Purisol, etc. All perform the same function of acid gas removal.
But then the article wouldn't be "Amine Gas Treating". It would be "Acid Gas Removal". ?? Goatchze (talk) 19:35, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: [WP:Silence] I have decided to remove the section concerning ION Engineering. For starters, it has always read like a press release or advertisement. Use of the phrase "is commercializing" and use of external links seems to show this point. Plus, the C&E external link is locked as subscriber only. Secondly, it doesn't belong on the amine sweetening page because it's simply not amine sweetening in the sense that most use the term.Goatchze (talk) 19:42, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Recent Somewhat Off-Topic Additions

message: Just wondering if the reference to mercaptans in the first couple of paragraphs should be amended or removed. Amines don't remove mercaptans from gas streams. They only remove the acid gases H2S and CO2. Mercaptans are generally removed in further treatments downstream involving caustic. That's how it works at my plant anyway.80.254.147.180 (talk) 09:16, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: Gas streams are rarely, if ever, treated with caustic for mercaptan removal downstream of the refinery amine gas treating unit. Liquid streams (LPG, propane, jet fuel, etc.,  for example) are often treated with caustic (or proprietary processes such as Merox) for removing mercaptans. mbeychok (talk) 17:36, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: To add to what Milton stated, amines do provide partial removal of mercaptans (See GPSA Databook Section 21, Fig.21-2).  Some formulated solvents, such as Shell's Sulfinol, provide considerably better removal.  While this increased removal is due to the addition of a physical absorption component, such as sulfolane, these formulated solvents are still generally considered amines in practice as the "additive" is only a small portion of the solution.  The rest is amine and water.  Goatchze (talk) 16:38, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

message: I'll be adding a "Carbon Capture and Storage" section under "Uses" regarding using amine solvents for carbon capture. Specifically, the challenges of carbon capture using amine and future directions of anime technologies will be added.— Preceding unsigned comment added by ZiqiangHong (talk • contribs) 07:28, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
