HVG series’ gas compression and treatment stations are designed into an easy-handling skid composed of an oil-injected rotary gas screw block, directly coupled to an electric motor through a flexible or magnetic coupling controlled by an inverter.
Whether for refueling fuel cell, as synthetic fuel, feeding into the natural gas network or for steel production, hydrogen is a climate-friendly versatile energy carrier.
Hydrogen but also Syngas is essential as a feedstock and fuel in many industrial processes. These applications include the mobility sector, power generation and storage, fertilizer and refinery.
Adicomp HVG series play a central role in its utilization.
With several years of proven experience of compressing hydrogen, the HVG series is the perfect choice for hydrogen & syngas applications.
Our solutions are optimized to be efficient, cost-effective and suit the specific customer’s requirements.
The gas is sucked through a suction filter that removes particles and also acts as a water separator (if required) , then the gas passes through a suction valve. All the components in contact with the gas are made in stainless steel or duly protected, due to the possible presence of aggressive contaminants in the gas. During the gas compression process, the oil is injected inside the rotary screw chamber to perform three main functions: lubrication, sealing and heat absorption. Working in a close circuit with a gas/oil receiver, oil is pressurized to flow through an oil cooler, then filtered before being injected again into the screw compression chamber. The gas separated from the oil through a cartridge flows through the minimum pressure/no-return valve into a cooler and could be treated before leaving the package in accordance with customer requirements. A sophisticated control system in the Adicomp series manage the operating pressure upstream or downstream the unit, and automatically adjusts compressor speed to modulate output according to the availability or demand of biogas.
