Disulfide Oil (DSO) Process Dosing Skid by Premix Technologies: Precision, Safety, and Environmental Compliance

Disulfide Oil (DSO) Process Dosing Skid by Premix Technologies: Precision, Safety, and Environmental Compliance

Introduction: Safe and Efficient DSO Handling for Oil and Gas Operations

Disulfide Oil (DSO), a byproduct of the Merox process in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and condensate sweetening, is a hazardous hydrocarbon sulfide waste stream containing compounds like dimethyl disulfide (DMDS). Its high sulfur content, flammability, and environmental risks demand precise handling and injection to support refining processes, such as hydrodesulfurization (HDS), or safe disposal. Improper management can lead to environmental pollution or operational inefficiencies.

Premix Technologies, headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, delivers advanced Disulfide Oil (DSO) Process Dosing Skids for oil and gas applications. Our systems provide accurate dosing of DSO or related chemicals, ensuring safe integration into refining processes while meeting stringent safety and environmental standards. With expertise in pump technology and automation, we offer reliable solutions for refineries, gas processing plants, and downstream operations.
