MOGAS Refinery Valve Solution
Located at the top of a major refinery, these MOGAS valves were chosen
for their performance and low maintenance. Due to their location,
reliability was a critical part of the installation decision.

MOGAS — Your Partner in the Process
Proven Reliability. Engineering Expertise. Dependable Service.
The refining industry has undergone many changes, from the methods of processing to the length of time that they operate
their process units. These changes, along with the emergence of low sulfur fuel specifications, the requirement to process
lower grade crude and the need to convert more bottom-of-the-barrel residuals, has put an extreme demand on isolation
and control valves. Unreliable and unpredictable valves in emergency situations can cause enormous monetary losses and
have devastating consequences for personnel. MOGAS has responded to these challenges by developing a combination of
diverse trim configurations and high quality coatings for use in high temperature, high pressure, erosive, corrosive, viscous
and coking / asphaltene applications.

Distillation
Atmospheric Distillation
In atmospheric distillation, the pipe still process takes the raw desalted crude
and heats it up in the crude furnace until it is partially vaporized. This allows for
the separation process to begin in the crude tower where several side streams
are taken off at different boiling points.

As a leading provider of critical service valves, MOGAS has worked with several
oil companies to create a reliable emergency bottoms isolation system. In a fire-
related emergency, this system isolates the tower and strippers—and the highly
flammable product they contain—from the source of the fire.
Optional body and seat purge ports can be
added to assist with removing coke.
One harmful characteristic of this
process is heavy media build-up.

Reforming
Continuous Catalytic Reforming (CCR)
The CCR process is primarily used in the refinery to improve the research
octane number (RON) of the motor gasoline pool. It can also be configured
for the production of aromatics for a petrochemical complex. A catalytic
dehydrogenation reaction converts paraffins into iso-paraffins and naphthenes
into aromatics. Hydrogen is a byproduct produced within this process and is
utilized in other parts of the refinery.
The leading licensor of this process has over 600 units installed globally. This
licensor has specified MOGAS isolation valves in its Schedule A specification
package. This process package has evolved from a semi-regenerative to a
continuous process, thus increasing the performance demands placed on the
catalyst movement valves.
MOGAS has developed spray coatings that can cycle up to 50,000 times with
no degradation in shutoff performance, which led to MOGAS being the preferred
choice of the leading licensor of this process.

Catalyst Handling Valves
Effectively Managing Catalyst
The FCC unit regenerator / reactor circulates catalyst and regenerates for reuse
in the reactor. This cycle continues until the catalyst is spent. Once the catalyst
is spent, it must be removed from the process, so that fresh catalyst can be
introduced to the unit. Isolation valves in the spent catalyst line allow for removal
of this catalyst.
These valves must perform two critical functions during the operation of the
unit: leak-free isolation of the spent catalyst line and control of the spent

catalyst from the regenerator.
and equipment. Leaking isolation valves can cause waste of unspent catalyst
affecting the performance of the unit and overheat the downstream piping and
equipment resulting in failure of the piping system. Inoperable valves cause spent
catalyst levels to build in the regenerator, resulting in entrained catalyst in the flue
gas system. This can cause the FCC unit to exceed mandatory EPA particulate
emissions, resulting in enormous monetary fines to the refinery.

during the repair or cleaning of this redundant equipment. Secondly, during a fire
situation the valve must close quickly and isolate to prevent the inventory from
becoming a fire source. If this inventory is not contained a volatile situation can
turn into a catastrophe quickly causing millions of dollars worth of damage to
the operating unit.

Hydroprocessing
Fixed Bed Hydrotreating
High pressures and temperatures are required to break the sulfur and nitrogen molecular bonds which
occur in residual, gas oil and diesel streams. In heavy metal crude processing refineries, a guard
reactor system is typically put in place to prevent poisoning of the hydrotreating catalyst. The catalyst
in the guard reactor has to frequently be removed due to collection of heavy metals on the catalyst.

Thermal Cracking
Delayed Coking
Coking is a batch process that requires frequent operation of the isolation valve
system during the coke drum switching operation.
MOGAS’ simple floating ball design provides trouble-free operation in this heavy
coking application, unlike complicated trunnion designs that provide several high
tolerance areas for coke to build-up and cause torque to increase significantly
from SOR to EOR of the unit.
Our floating ball design requires much less steam during purging operations This midwestern refinery has four 20-inch ASME
300 class MOGAS ball valves in overhead vapor
than the typical trunnion designs, saving thousands of dollars annually in service. Several are beginning their second
energy costs. decade of service.
As a continuous improvement to
the company’s design, MOGAS has 12

and valve stem sizing. This helps
avoid valve and actuator failure from 2

Gasification
MOGAS has worked with the leading licensor of the gasification process globally
to develop trim and coating technology to increase the operational reliability of
critical isolation valves.
MOGAS’ most recent achievement was to extend the lockhopper valve system
for de-slagging operations. This achievement improved performance from six
months to five years with over 50,000 cycles of operation without any related
valve or actuator failures.
