SHELL’S CANSOLV® SO₂ SCRUBBING SYSTEM

The industry’s leading, regenerable sulphur dioxide (SO₂) control technology

Strict environmental regulations, both at the refinery and in refined product markets, put pressure on a refiner to limit SO₂ emissions and to generate refined products that contain less organic sulphur. 

Refiners need to consider:

• Meeting ultra-low SO₂ emissions limits
• Increasing the capacity of sulphur recovery units
• Maximising the use of high-sulphur residue fuels
