Energy Industry

What we are providing

Specialty gases play a significant role in various applications within the energy industry. Here are some of their key uses:

Power Generation: Specialty gases are used in power generation facilities, particularly in gas turbines and combined cycle systems. They help in reducing emissions, improving efficiency, and enhancing the control of the combustion process.

Fuel Cell Technology: In fuel cell systems, specialty gases such as hydrogen and oxygen are critical. Hydrogen serves as a fuel source, while oxygen is used in the electrochemical reaction to generate electricity.

Emission Control and Monitoring: The energy industry requires precise monitoring and control of emissions to comply with environmental regulations. Specialty gases like calibration gases are used to ensure accurate measurement and analysis of emissions from power plants.

Energy Storage: Specialty gases are involved in energy storage technologies. For instance, compressed air energy storage systems use air that is compressed using electricity and stored for later use in power generation.

Solar Energy Production: In the production of photovoltaic cells, specialty gases such as silane, ammonia, and nitrogen trifluoride are used in the manufacturing process for depositing various layers and materials onto the solar cells.

Wind Energy: Although indirectly, specialty gases might be used in the manufacturing and maintenance processes of wind turbines, such as in the production of composite materials or in cooling and insulating applications.

Oil and Gas Industry: In the exploration and processing of oil and gas, specialty gases are used for various purposes including testing and calibration of equipment, as well as in enhanced oil recovery techniques.

Nuclear Energy: In nuclear power plants, specialty gases like helium are used for cooling and as a protective atmosphere in certain applications due to their inert properties.

Research and Development: Specialty gases are crucial in R&D related to new energy technologies, providing controlled environments and acting as reactants in experimental setups.

LNG and CNG: For liquefied natural gas (LNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG), specialty gases are used in the purification, liquefaction, and compression processes.

Overall, specialty gases are integral to the operation, efficiency, safety, and environmental compliance of various facets within the energy industry.
