Hydrogen Recycle Compressors<br />

With modern processes, refineries are producing<br />

desulphurized diesel fuel to meet new environmental<br />

requirements. To control <strong>the</strong> required<br />

hydrogen recycle process, <strong>speed</strong> control of <strong>the</strong><br />

compressor is required. The compressors often<br />

run at very high <strong>speed</strong>s – The <strong>Voith</strong> Vorecon is<br />

<strong>the</strong> ideal drive unit <strong>for</strong> this application.<br />

Hydrogen Recycle Compressor, Sweden<br />

Vorecon type RWE,<br />

Power 4 200 kW,<br />

Speed 10 450 rpm<br />

Process Compressor<br />

In <strong>the</strong> chemical industry process compressors are<br />

used to initiate reactive processes. Such processes<br />

need to run without any disturbances or interruptions<br />

<strong>for</strong> several years. <strong>Voith</strong> geared variable<strong>speed</strong><br />

couplings have been proven as highly<br />

reliable <strong>drives</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>se compressors.<br />

Propylene Process Compressor, Germany<br />

Geared variable-<strong>speed</strong> coupling type R 111 KGS,<br />

Power 12 000 kW,<br />

Speed 4 140 rpm<br />
