Core application of carbon dioxide compressor
Core application of carbon dioxide compressor
Carbon dioxide compressors are mainly used for pressurizing and transporting carbon dioxide gas. Core applications include chemical synthesis, carbon capture and storage, refrigeration and industrial waste gas treatment.
The specific uses are as follows:
1: Urea synthesis
In the production of fertilizer, carbon dioxide compressor combines carbon dioxide with ammonia to produce urea and optimize the reaction efficiency. For example, the overall gear centrifugal compressor can increase the pressure to 140-200 bar, significantly improving the synthesis efficiency.
2:Petrochemical and natural gas processing
Used for natural gas transportation, gas turbine gas compression, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Supercritical carbon dioxide mixed with crude oil improves fluidity and facilitates collection.
3:Carbon capture and storage (CCUS)
Carbon dioxide is captured from industrial waste gas and compressed for storage to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Centrifugal compressors liquefy carbon dioxide at high pressure for storage, supporting carbon neutral technologies.
4:Supercritical energy storage power generation
As the core component of the supercritical energy storage and power generation system, carbon dioxide is compressed to the supercritical state (7.39MPa, 31.4℃) to achieve efficient energy conversion and improve the efficiency of power generation.
5: Refrigeration system
In the green refrigeration scene (such as cold chain logistics, commercial refrigerator), it provides efficient refrigeration effect, especially in the low temperature environment, performance is stable.
6:Food and beverage production
Carbon dioxide compression and purification for carbonated beverages to ensure taste and bubble quality for mass production.
7:Health care and automobile manufacturing
Medical: Provide high pressure carbon dioxide gas for laser surgery, endoscopic examination and other equipment gas supply.
Car: As the core component of the environmentally friendly car air conditioning, it supports the efficient operation of the thermal management system
8:Industrial gas conveying and bottling
It is used for remote natural gas and carbon dioxide pipeline transportation and bottling to ensure safe transportation of gas.
Summary: Carbon dioxide compressors play a key role in chemical production, environmental emission reduction, energy transformation and daily life through supercharging and efficient compression technology, especially in the representative applications of urea synthesis, carbon capture and supercritical energy storage power generation.
