Title: Faisal M. Alabbas: Inventor in Process-Stream Treatment

Introduction

Faisal M. Alabbas is an inventor based in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. His work includes inventions for treating fouled process streams, with a focus on using magnetic separation to address microbial and scale-related fouling. He is associated with the Saudi Arabian Oil Company and has 2 patents.

Latest Patents

Alabbas’s listed patents describe magnetic separation systems and methods for continuously cleaning fouled process streams.

“Separation Unit for Microbial and Scale Treatment” describes feeding a fouled stream into a separation vessel equipped with a rotating magnet. A motor turns a shaft and magnet to generate a magnetic field intended to reduce the concentration of fouling constituents. The system also includes a circulation pump and a sampling point, allowing a sample to be collected and measured before treated effluent is supplied to a clean collection vessel.

“Method for Killing and Removing Microorganisms and Scale Using Separation Unit Equipped with Rotating Magnets” likewise describes continuous treatment of a fouled process stream using a magnetic separation unit. The method includes circulating the stream through the vessel, sampling it to measure fouling constituents, and directing the resulting effluent to a clean collection vessel.

Career Highlights
