Corrosive Gas Applications by Ro-Flo
Ro-Flo’s pass-through lubrication and quality components have made it the industry standard for difficult-to-manage, corrosive industrial process gas streams.
Syngas
Waste-to-Energy. Discarded products such as old tires, automobile shred residue, diapers, roof shingles and plastics are processed through a thermal reactor, producing gaseous hydrocarbons. This gas is then compressed with a Ro-Flo compressor to heat the reactor or produce electricity.
Butadiene
Starting as a coproduct of ethylene, the 1,3-butadiene monomer is extracted and purified, then transferred to manufacturers for use in the production of tires, hoses, belts, gaskets, and other rubber products. The Ro-Flo compressor has been used in and around these manufacturers for decades.
Hydrogen Recovery
Various petrochemical and refining processes generate hydrogen-rich off-gases. Ro-Flo compressors have become the dependable, cost-effective solution for these applications.
