This custom-engineered compressor package is designed for a hydrocarbon boil-off-gas application and features a GEA model 1210GL, API-619 screw compressor, operating at 1,800HP.
The Boil-off Process
Refrigerants based on ammonia or hydrocarbons – as well as liquid propane, propylene, and ethylene – are stored in special vessels at low temperatures. Ambient warmth raises this temperature. The resulting vapors must be vented to avoid pressure build up. They are changed to liquid form and returned to the storage vessel.
Flexibility
GEA’s BOG solutions are customized for each application and utilize GEA’s proven oil-injected screw compression technology to meet customer requirements and specifications, including limiting oil carryover to <1ppm (parts per million).
Applications
- BOG compression and refrigeration in fertilizer plants employs screw compressor packages and condensing systems for ammonia boil-off systems.
- BOG compression and refrigeration in hydrocarbon storage facilities is enabled by GEA’s line of API-619 compliant compressors, which are also uniquely suited for tank loading & unloading facilities.
- BOG condensing units in LNG plants.
Optimization
GEA’s boil-off-gas solutions are designed for maximum energy efficiency to reduce energy use and, in turn, operating costs.

Was Wasser wirklich kostet
In Europa ist Dürre längst keine Ausnahme mehr – und schon lange nicht mehr nur ein Thema des Südens. Wasser wird zunehmend zum Standortfaktor für die Industrie, doch sein wirtschaftlicher Wert unterscheidet sich von Region zu Region. Es gibt viele technologische Wege zu mehr Wassereffizienz in industriellen Prozessen – welcher davon der richtige ist, hängt jedoch auch vom Standort, vom Energiebedarf und weiteren Faktoren ab.
