Neither the whole nor any part of this document may be reproduced, stored in any retrieval system or transmitted in any form or
3、 by any means (electronic, mechanical, reprographic, recording or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the copyright owners. PREFACE DEP (Design and Engineering Practice) publications reflect the views, at the time of publication, of: Shell International Oil Products B.V. (SIOP) and Shell
4、 International Exploration and Production B.V. (SIEP) and Shell International Chemicals B.V. (SIC) The Hague, The Netherlands, and other Service Companies. They are based on the experience acquired during their involvement with the design, construction, operation and maintenance of processing units
5、and facilities, and they are supplemented with the experience of Group Operating companies. Where appropriate they are based on, or reference is made to, national and international standards and codes of practice. The objective is to set the recommended standard for good design and engineering pract
6、ice applied by Group companies operating an oil refinery, gas handling installation, chemical plant, oil and gas production facility, or any other such facility, and thereby to achieve maximum technical and economic benefit from standardization. The information set forth in these publications is pro
7、vided to users for their consideration and decision to implement. This is of particular importance where DEPs may not cover every requirement or diversity of condition at each locality. The system of DEPs is expected to be sufficiently flexible to allow individual operating companies to adapt the in
8、formation set forth in DEPs to their own environment and requirements. When Contractors or Manufacturers/Suppliers use DEPs they shall be solely responsible for the quality of work and the attainment of the required design and engineering standards. In particular, for those requirements not specific
9、ally covered, the Principal will expect them to follow those design and engineering practices which will achieve the same level of integrity as reflected in the DEPs. If in doubt, the Contractor or Manufacturer/Supplier shall, without detracting from his own responsibility, consult the Principal or
10、its technical advisor. The right to use DEPs is granted by SIOP, SIEP or SIC, in most cases under Service Agreements primarily with companies of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group and other companies receiving technical advice and services from SIOP, SIEP or SIC. Consequently, three categories of users of
11、DEPs can be distinguished: 1)Operating companies having a Service Agreement with SIOP, SIEP, SIC or other Service Company. The use of DEPs by these Operating companies is subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the relevant Service Agreement. 2)Other parties who are authorized to use
12、DEPs subject to appropriate contractual arrangements. 3)Contractors/subcontractors and Manufacturers/Suppliers under a contract with users referred to under 1) or 2) which requires that tenders for projects, materials supplied or - generally - work performed on behalf of the said users comply with t
13、he relevant standards. Subject to any particular terms and conditions as may be set forth in specific agreements with users, SIOP, SIEP and SIC disclaim any liability of whatsoever nature for any damage (including injury or death) suffered by any company or person whomsoever as a result of or in con
14、nection with the use, application or implementation of any DEP, combination of DEPs or any part thereof. The benefit of this disclaimer shall inure in all respects to SIOP, SIEP, SIC and/or any company affiliated to these companies that may issue DEPs or require the use of DEPs. Without prejudice to
15、 any specific terms in respect of confidentiality under relevant contractual arrangements, DEPs shall not, without the prior written consent of SIOP and SIEP, be disclosed by users to any company or person whomsoever and the DEPs shall be used exclusively for the purpose for which they have been pro
16、vided to the user. They shall be returned after use, including any copies which shall only be made by users with the express prior written consent of SIOP and SIEP. The copyright of DEPs vests in SIOP and SIEP. Users shall arrange for DEPs to be held in safe custody and SIOP or SIEP may at any time
17、require information satisfactory to them in order to ascertain how users implement this requirement. All administrative queries should be directed to the DEP Administrator in SIOP. NOTE: In addition to DEP publications there are Standard Specifications and Draft DEPs for Development (DDDs). DDDs gen
18、erally introduce new procedures or techniques that will probably need updating as further experience develops during their use. The above requirements for distribution and use of DEPs are also applicable to Standard Specifications and DDDs. Standard Specifications and DDDs will gradually be replaced
19、 by DEPs. DEP 31.22.01.31-Gen.

24、mber 1995 Page 4 1.INTRODUCTION 1.1SCOPE This DEP specifies requirements and gives recommendations for rotating disc contactors (RDCs). Sections 3 through 10 cover the design, fabrication, shop inspection and testing and delivery. Sections 11 through 13 cover the installation, site testing and maint
25、enance. This DEP is a revision and combination of two previous publications, DEP 31.22.01.31-Gen. and DEP 61.22.01.31-Gen., both dated October 1982. DEP 61.22.01.31-Gen. is herewith withdrawn. Requirements for RDCs made of glass-fibre reinforced epoxy are excluded from the scope of this DEP. 1.2DIST
26、RIBUTION, INTENDED USE AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS Unless otherwise authorised by SIOP and SIEP, the distribution of this DEP is confined to companies forming part of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group or managed by a Group company, and to Contractors and Manufacturers/Suppliers nominated by them (i.e. t
27、he distribution code is “F“, as described in DEP 00.00.05.05-Gen.). This DEP is intended for use in oil refineries, chemical plants, gas plants, oil and gas production facilities, and supply/marketing installations. If national and/or local regulations exist in which some of the requirements may be
28、more stringent than in this DEP, the Contractor shall determine by careful scrutiny which of the requirements are the more stringent and which combination of requirements will be acceptable as regards safety, environmental, economic and legal aspects. In all cases the Contractor shall inform the Pri
29、ncipal of any deviation from the requirements of this DEP which is considered to be necessary in order to comply with national and/or local regulations. The Principal may then negotiate with the Authorities concerned with the object of obtaining agreement to follow this DEP as closely as possible. 1
30、.3DEFINITIONS 1.3.1General Definitions The Contractor is the party which carries out all or part of the design, engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning or management of a project or operation of a facility. The Principal may undertake all or part of the duties of the Contractor. The
31、 Manufacturer/Supplier is the party which manufactures or supplies equipment and services to perform the duties specified by the Contractor. The Principal is the party which initiates the project and ultimately pays for its design and construction. The Principal will generally specify the technical
32、requirements. The Principal may also include an agent or consultant, authorised to act for, and on behalf of, the Principal. The word shall indicates a requirement. The word should indicates a recommendation. 1.3.2Specific definitions The drive is the prime mover. The driving unit consists of the pr
33、ime mover and the speed reducer. The requisition is the vehicle used to exchange information prior to order placement, using the appropriate data/requisition sheets (e.g. DEP 31.22.01.93-Gen. for rotating disc contactors, DEP 33.66.05.93-Gen. for electric motors).

35、l cylindrical vessel, divided by a series of stator rings into a number of equally spaced compartments. A rotor disc supported by a shaft is centred in each compartment (see Appendices 1 and 2). The diameter of the discs is smaller than the inside diameter of the stator rings, thus permitting assemb
36、ly and withdrawal of the rotor for installation and maintenance. The feed inlets at the top and bottom are placed tangential to the direction of rotation. The settling zones at the top and bottom are separated from the contacting zone by means of a wide-mesh grid. The liquid with the higher density
37、enters the RDC at the top. The liquid with the lower density enters at the bottom and flows upwards, counter-currently to the descending liquid of higher density. Rotation of the rotor will cause one of the liquids to become dispersed in the other. Variation of the rotor speed provides a simple mean
38、s of controlling the droplet size of the dispersed phase and thereby the efficiency of the RDC. The rotor is driven at the top by either a variable-speed electric motor or an electric motor with a variable-speed transmission. The rotor shaft is suspended from a spherical roller thrust bearing at the
39、 top and centred by a bottom sleeve bearing and, depending on the size of the RDC, by one or more intermediate sleeve bearings. If intermediate bearings are used, the rotor shaft consists of two or more parts, connected to each other by a rigid coupling. The top bearing is oil-bath lubricated, while
40、 the bottom bearing and the intermediate bearing, if applicable, are lubricated by the product in the RDC. During rotation of the rotor, the shaft is sealed by a mechanical seal. Above the mechanical seal two auxiliary lip seals are installed to prevent excessive losses of product in the event of a
41、mechanical seal failure (see Appendix 3). A vent/drain line is connected to the chamber between the mechanical seal and auxiliary lip seals to carry away any leakage of product to a safe location. The mechanical seal housing shall be continuously flushed to prevent fouling, to remove any gas accumul
42、ation around the seal faces and for cooling purposes. Below the mechanical seal a stationary seal and inflatable seal are installed, which will be used in the event of a mechanical seal failure, but only when the rotor is stationary. Following a mechanical seal failure, the inflatable seal is pressu
43、rised with nitrogen from an external supply. In this way the contents of the RDC will be isolated from the damaged seal. The stationary sealing is obtained by lowering the rotor shaft onto a stationary sealing flange containing an O-ring. The intent of this design arrangement is to continue operatio
44、n with the rotor in the stationary position and to carry out mechanical seal repairs while the vessel remains under operating pressure. DEP 31.22.01.31-Gen. December 1995 Page 7 3.BASIC DESIGN REQUIREMENTS The RDC shall meet the requirements specified in the requisition and shall be capable of conti
45、nuous operation (i.e. uninterrupted operation for a period of at least 16 000 hours at the specified operating conditions) without undue noise and vibration. It shall incorporate all the design features indicated on Standard Drawing S 23.101 and the following standard drawings mentioned therein: S 2
46、3.104, S 23.105 and S 23.106.
