H2S-50
50% MEA TRIAZINE H₂S SCAVENGER

Water-based monoethanolamine-based triazine scavenger for oil & gas H₂S treatment systems. H2S-50 is positioned as a balanced mid-active grade combining higher delivered active content than H2S-50 with practical liquid handling for general treatment programs.

High-active treatment chemistry

BALANCED ACTIVE. GENERAL-PURPOSE FORMAT.

EXPLORAX H2S-50 is a water-based MEA-triazine solution positioned between the lower-active H2S-50 and the more concentrated H2S-50 / H2S-80 grades. It provides a balanced active concentration for customers who want a general-purpose liquid scavenger format with straightforward storage, transfer and metered injection.

Water-based liquid

Clear to pale-yellow liquid with mild amine odour and water solubility.

Balanced concentration

A mid-active option for customers seeking a compromise between concentration and handling flexibility.

Controlled injection

Designed for metered treatment concepts where dosage is established by actual H₂S loading and process conditions.

Qualification required

Final dosage depends on inlet H₂S, flow, pressure, temperature, contact conditions and treatment target.

TREATMENT LOGIC

CONTACT.
REACT.
VERIFY.

The internal page should communicate H₂S scavenging as a controlled treatment sequence rather than a single generic claim. In practice, the required dose and contact conditions depend on the actual sour stream and operating target.

H2S scavenger treatment schematic

Typical injection concept

The scavenger is metered into the sour gas or process stream, mixed with the stream, allowed to contact and react, and followed by verification of the treated outlet. The attached process graphic is presented as an application illustration rather than a fixed engineering design.

01

Detect

Establish inlet H₂S concentration and treatment target.

02

Inject

Meter H2S-50 at a controlled injection point suited to the process.

03

Contact

Provide adequate mixing and residence time for the scavenging reaction.

04

Verify

Measure downstream H₂S and optimize dosage against actual performance.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS

WHERE H2S-50
CAN BE EVALUATED.

Sour Gas Treatment

Continuous or staged scavenger injection into sour gas streams where a liquid MEA-triazine treatment route is appropriate.

Separator / Production Gas

Injection around separator gas outlets or downstream production-treatment equipment to reduce H₂S before further handling.

Crude / Liquid Systems

Can be evaluated in selected hydrocarbon or process liquid applications where H₂S control is required and compatibility is confirmed.

Storage & Transfer

Useful as a treatment concept for tanks, transfer systems and process lines when H₂S control is required during handling.

Pipeline Injection

Metered injection can be considered where mixing and contact time in the line support the intended treatment objective.

Field Qualification

Dosage should be optimized using actual inlet H₂S, flow, temperature, pressure and downstream target values.

PACKAGING & LOGISTICS

FLEXIBLE GRADE.
PRACTICAL SUPPLY.

The 50% grade is positioned as a balanced mid-active supply format. It delivers more active chemistry per package than H2S-50 while retaining greater carrier content than the 60% and 80% grades. Final pack size and shipment configuration should follow the approved commercial specification.

Packaging

IBC / drum / bulk options to be confirmed against the current commercial pack specification.

Active delivery

The 50% concentration provides a middle ground between active delivery and carrier content.

Handling

Dynamic viscosity at 25°C remains to be measured and should be added to the approved commercial specification once confirmed.

Storage

Final storage temperature and shelf-life statements should be added from the approved TDS / MSDS.

TECHNICAL QUESTIONS

FAQ.

This sample uses only supported product specifications and keeps dosage/performance claims application-dependent until field or lab data are supplied.

The current parameter sheet specifies 49.5–50.5 wt.% active content.

The current parameter sheet lists dynamic viscosity at 25°C as to be measured.

Yes. The supplied parameter sheet describes the grade as water-soluble.

Clear to pale-yellow liquid with mild amine odour.

The current parameter sheet gives pH 9–10.5 at 25°C.

A fixed dosage is not stated in the supplied parameter sheet. Dosage should be established using inlet H₂S, flow, contact conditions and the required outlet target.

It can be presented as a metered-injection treatment concept, but the exact injection design must be qualified for the actual process.

Calculated density is 1.101 g/mL at 25°C.

Calculated specific gravity is 1.110 at 25°C/25°C.

Not in the supplied parameter sheet. Shelf life should be added only from the approved current TDS or commercial specification.

NEED H₂S-60 FOR YOUR STREAM?

Share inlet H₂S, flow, pressure, temperature, gas/liquid phase and outlet target. That information is needed to design a meaningful qualification program.
