"I would like to thank you for adding the Case Study, it is amazing. "

"Our refinery wanted to improve its SWS performance. This project was expensive and without ProTreat it probably would have been canceled. Just changing the packing achieved 80% of the benefit at 20% of the original project cost. ProTreat let us confidently recommend the less expensive option and we didn't have to guess the efficiency of the packing. Project was approved and implemented this winter."

"Did a job last year on a piperazine activated MDEA plant in Africa. The plant was acting as if there was only about 2% pip instead of the 9% in the formulation. Subsequently found out that the vendor came back and told them they were 7% shy on the pip strength. BINGO!"

"I used ProTreat® software for more than 4 years while working at Sulzer Chemtech in Singapore. ProTreat is always upgrading and improving their software. This software is good for solving applications like gas sweetening units and is easy to use. Their support is excellent."

"Of the commercially available software I have used, ProTreat® has been the easiest to pick up and use."

"Seeing the effect of heat stable salts is very beneficial in making reclaiming decisions."

"I have used ProTreat® for the last 5 years or so and find it of great assistance in providing the technical detail that design engineers require. It is also very good in helping to understand and troubleshoot process problems in amine units."

"I've used ProTreat® since its inception. The ultimate measure of software is my willingness to run a simulation in front of a client in an emergency troubleshooting situation, without any fear that I'll get bad information. To date, it hasn't let me down! "

"A truly accurate piperazine model is a real edge."

"We just trust the numbers - they've never been wrong."

"ProTreat® models CO2 slip and tail gas treaters extremely well. Very high reliability and far less design uncertainty."

"ProTreat® helped us to justify our new approaches in the field of hydrocarbons' amine desulfurization, acid gas enrichment and amine section of tail gas treatment units."

"It's uncanny how closely ProTreat® matches good plant data. If I find a discrepancy between ProTreat and data coming from the plant, I always look to see what's wrong with the plant."

"Contacted the ProTreat® support several times and always got a helpful reply in time."

"ProTreat®, an easy to use program, was invaluable in predicting operations for two refineries requiring a temporary tie together of their primary and TGU amine systems saving the costs of unit shutdowns."

"I have evaluated ProTreat® and ProMax® simulations against actual plant and pilot plant data for both CO2 and H2S. The conclusion is ProTreat® is the software to choose because it is mass transfer rate based and always represents reality for both absorbers and strippers."

"ProTreat® is a robust predictive tool for simulation and design. In many cases ProTreat® predicted rich loadings < measured, but a check on the measurement procedure always showed ProTreat™ predictions were correct. It is used now as a tool to check plant data."
