Turbo Expenders

For producing atmospheric gases like oxygen, nitrogen and argon in large scale, low temperature distillation provides the most economical route from many points of view. In addition, many industrially important physical processes require very low temperature in the form of cryogenic distillation. Such cryogenic process plants are exclusively based on the low-pressure cycles for which an expansion turbine to generate refrigeration is an essential part of the plant.

Turbo-expanders are highly engineered products, which are always built according to the process requirements as well as to the customers’ specifications.

Turbo-expander packages are characterized into three distinct application categories:

  • Turbo-expander / Compressor Packages
  • Turbo-expander / Generator Packages
  • Turbo-expander / Oil or Hydraulic Break Packages
