Atlas Copco Gas and Process radial inflow turbines (turboexpanders) offer high efficiency, robust construction and extremely reliable performance that have proven an ideal solution in thousands of applications around the world. In many applications across a range of industries, an expander’s isentropic efficiency is key to higher productivity.
In processes such as air separation for industrial gases and the extraction of natural gas liquids (NGLs), higher isentropic efficiency translates into greater cooling power. This means higher product yields and lower energy costs. For power generation applications, higher isentropic efficiency produces more power from the same resource, creating greater returns for geothermal, waste heat, and pressure letdown power plants.
By employing advanced computational-fluid dynamics, finite element analysis and proven impeller designs, Atlas Copco turboexpanders provide high efficiency targeted at your specific process.
