The Effects of Black Powder

Roger Simonson of Black Powder Solutions will be speaking on the effects of black powder contamination on traditional filtration as well as pipeline components. He will start with the composition and cause of this contaminant and move toward the solutions for removing it from gas and hydrocarbon fluid pipelines. He will also explain the current trends and future trends in removal efficiencies.

Case studies on black powder in both traditional and new fuels will be presented. These new fuels include LNG and LPG and their emergence into North America and around the world. Roger will also talk about the negative effects this contamination can have on operating companies and end users.
