Flowserve announced two solutions for compressors: water lubricated Aquapac for green hydrogen-serve oil-free screw compressors, and the Ampliflow T-Boost air-sealing booster for dry gas debris. The information below is based on the company’s public content, along with the technical context section by SNS-VN.
Hydro for fuel batteries, electronics or energy storage requires very high purity. Just a small amount of lubricant oil entering the gas can also contaminate the product. So the oil-free screw compressor and the oil-free pellet are concerned.
According to the company, this is the first water lubricated mechanical slurry for the oil-free screw compressor. The solution uses ultra-pure water instead of oil or blocking gas, thusining the purity of hydrogen and towards non-emission hydrogen compression.
Dry gas requires clean and higher pressure than the chamber. When the machine starts or stops, the natural pressure difference may not be sufficient, then a pressure booster is needed. According to the company, the T-Boost is completely sealed so that it does not leak, has a cover covering against the torrential current and reduces the heat load so that no further cooling is needed.
