The coils (not the ones in the columns) will be for recovery, and the right side will have 3-way ball valves so I can use that one for injection as well.

As soon as this fab shop gets done with my ā€œchillerā€, I’ll post pictures. It won’t be utilized on this system though, but on another, larger crude system.

But until I get my order back, I’ll explain a little in detail…

It’s basically a 1/2ā€ cooling coil (its 42ā€ long x 8ā€ wide) and one outlet goes to the March ethanol pump, which delivers to the process. The other inlet, is hard-lined into a tri-clamp 3ā€ sight glass, which on top has a 30PSI swagelok PRV and gauge, and then hard lined coming from the process. It fits inside a 12ā€ x 48ā€ tri-clamp column. If my paperwork is correct, it should work well.

So it’s a coil inside a 12x48 spool, will this be packed with dry ice slurry?

Yes, the sight glass will allow you to keep track of any solvent loss. Doing it this way, will make sure no atmospheric water will condense into the pure ethanol reservoir, which will make sure no ice build up leading to imploding tanks.

The name for this system is… ā€œThe derrickā€

The larger system will be called ā€œThe Cokerā€

Getting last minute tubing done before the move. Installed 2ā€ black plastic square tubing end caps for safety. Bolt on heat exchanger set up to get in and out of tight doors. Should be completely done with all tubing tomorrow, and The Derrick will be planted inside Oklahoma to begin Fracking immediately.

I’ll be hitting the travels this week. May try for Dallas / OK / CO to play catch up on meetings and introductions. I’m running behind on staying on top of leads and need to establish contact with everyone.

Also wanna talk shop with any and all omma license holders to find the right home for the wfe gear (with $ to get operational)

I’m falling behind on contact and need to send some mass messages out. Trying to spread the attention how I can. It’s a juggle with these plates this full. Loving it.
