We are the world leader in supplying industrial gases to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Our expertise, gases and equipment boost performance through:

• Debottlenecking – enriching the air with pure oxygen in oxidation processes increases throughput, avoids capital investment, and cuts raw material costs.
• Gas separation – cryogenics, adsorption and membrane processes are used for recycling and purification of waste streams.
• Sulphuric acid regeneration – oxygen enriched regenerators add value by increasing the rate of acid production in furnaces, increasing the conversion of sulphur dioxide and reducing emissions in converters.
• Protection through inerting – nitrogen for purging and inerting to avoid contamination.

Products

We supply a range of bulk and on-site gases:

• Nitrogen – for purging and inerting.
• Oxygen – to improve yield, debottleneck air-based processes, for the production of synthesis gas and to boost aerobic fermentation.
• Carbon Dioxide – used in synthesis chemistry, extraction and for controlling reactor temperatures.
• Carbon Monoxide– for polycarbonate, polyurethane and oxy-alcohol units based on SMR and ATR processes or on partial oxidation.
• Hydrogen – for hydrogenation of amines and fatty acids and in the production of plastics, polyesters and nylons.

In addition we supply mixing devices that can help increase capacity, efficiency and safety.
