Gas Compressor
Hofer diaphragm compressors provide a lubricant and abrasion-free compression of gases and gas mixtures. Medium pressure compressors are available in discharge pressure ranging from 7 psig to 40 psig. Take profit of our know-how in planning and construction of special systems, e.g. natural gas stations, biogas compressors for industrial large-scale their explanation plants, hydrogen systems and energy storage.
The present extension of the original ATLAS project aspires to upscale and bring close to commercialization the main outcome of ATLAS-H2 (the Metal Hydride Compressor) while paying considerable attention to the demonstration of its potential applications (RES storage, hydrogen filling stations for vehicles, etc) and the development of a complete business plan for market deployment and penetration.
During his visit, Mr. Stelpstra emphasized the important role the specialized manufacturing industry plays in the development of solutions in enabling the hydrogen economy as part of the energy transition to a cleaner world. 18 is a graph showing the results of dual-stage, electrochemical hydrogen compression to 2000 psia (T=22° C.).
However, the production, purification, and compression of hydrogen represent key technical challenges to the implementation of a hydrogen economy, especially in the transportation sector where on-board storage of pure hydrogen may require compression at pressures up to 12,000 psi.
Features include the ability to adjust to variable flow rates, continuous operation with liquid injection to cool and clean the gas during compression without contamination by lube oil, high speed, high efficiency, compact size, no valves, less liquid used, no pulsation, no alternating forces and can handle impurities in gas streams.
Fuel cells offer an environmentally friendly method of efficient energy generation, and the use of hydrogen as the fuel of choice is attractive as the conversion to electrical energy is emissions-free, with water and heat being the only by-products. The invention disclosed relates to an apparatus and process for electrochemical compression of hydrogen.
The multi-stage compressor embodiment includes a plurality of PEM cells connected in series, such that the compressed hydrogen from the outlet of a first cell in the series is fed to the hydrogen inlet of the next cell in series, wherein each cell is electrically isolated from the adjacent cell in the series.
Available as non-lubricated, oil-free compressors in reciprocating piston styles. 3 is a concept diagram showing a cross-sectional view of a multi-stage electrochemical hydrogen compressor with an overall cylindrical configuration. The two we are concerned with for this project are piston and diaphragm compressors.
Our compressors are characterised by a sturdy construction, low speed, long service intervals and an excellent value for money. Description: The Gas Booster offers a flexible and efficient source of high pressure gasses with a pneumatic actuated piston. Used gas compressors are also available.
The compressor package shall be designed for use with quality hydrogen as defined in CGA G-5.3 - Commodity Specification for Hydrogen Type 1 Grade B, as applicable and for the pressures and temperatures to which it may be subjected under packager-specified operating conditions.
Anyhow for high pressure non-lubricated compressor application used in Hydrogen mobility 350 - 700 bar where oil contamination of the Hydrogen must be avoided the non-lubricated compressors have to be employed. Resato has developed a range of high pressure compressors for hydrogen refueling applications to address the 'chicken-egg' dilemma: There is a lack of hydrogen refueling stations due to a shortage in hydrogen cars, and vice versa.
Reciprocating compressors typically require more periodic maintenance such as valves and piston rings. When your hydrogen tank fills, open the tank a hair to let the gas in. Then close the valve and rebuild pressure in the hydrogen tank that's connected to your hydrogen generator.
