REDUCE CORROSION

Anhydrous Ammonia n a typical petroleum installation, Anhydrous A m monia reduces losses from uncontrolled corrosion by as much as 88 per cent. Operating equipment, storage tanks and pipe lines all have longer life when Anhydrous Ammonia is used to neutralize corrosive hydrogen sulfide (sour crude). Anhydrous Ammonia is easily vaporized. It follows the gas stream through condensers, fractionating tower, heat exchangers, etc. W i t h its high solubility and high diffusion rate it reduces acidity without forming water or undesirable emulsions. A n d products of neutralization are easily eliminated from the oil. Excess ammonia is removed by blowing t h e oil with air. One pound of Anhydrous Ammonia will neutralize the same quantity of acid as several pounds of other anti-corrosion agents. Use of ammonia is effective under a variety of climatic and operating conditions. Especially valuable is the convenient operation with ammonia without interference with normal operating procedures of schedules. Start now to preserve your valuable equipment. Use Nitrogen Division Anhydrous Ammonia; available in 10,000- and 12,500-gallon tank cars and in 150-, 100-, and 50-lb. cylinders.
