Best valve type for dense phase CO2 service
Best valve type for dense phase CO2 service
(OP)
I am trying to determine the best valve type (ball vs gate) for dense phase CO2 service - both for mainline and for smaller takeoff valves. Is one more suitable than the other in this type of service? Additionally, do you have any experience using plug valves as sacrificial valves when depressurizing or repressurizing segments of pipeline?

I don't know what you mean by a "sacrificial valve".

If your system is strictly ambient temperature, this shouldn't be an issue.
