High Temperature gas compression
High Temperature gas compression
(OP)
Hi,
Are there gas compressors on the open market (UK if poss) that can fulfil the following duty.
Inlet pressure: ~20 mbarg
Oulet pressure: 2,000mbarg
Flow: 2,500 Nm3/h
Fluid: off gas (51% N2, 18% CO, 12% CO2, 17% H2, 2% CH4)
Inlet temperature 500 deg.C
Thanks in anticipation of a quick reponse.

I don't think you're going to have any luck on so may levels.

Thus the pressure ratio, in this case, would be:
(1.01325+2)/(1.01325+0.02)=2.92

Thanks for explaining it to zdas04. You are right 'm' is milli the same as 'mm' is millimeter. I knew the compression ratio wasn't onerous but the temperature is what I wasn't sure about as to whether any compressors could accept such high temperature.
Many thanks for the responses.

if using process fluid as the sealing/barrier fluid, then perhaps cooling that portion of gas used for sealing purposes is all that is needed. of course, a backup fluid will be needed (N2 ?).
yes, zdas04, one must be cognizant of postings with metric units.
