Regional markets: Focus on Middle East
Despite various examples of political upheaval in the region and economic headwinds across the globe, the future remains bright for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) industrial gases market.
Despite various examples of political upheaval in the region and economic headwinds across the globe, the future remains bright for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) industrial gases market.
Air separation units (ASUs) are at the heart of the industrial gases business. Towering structures with clean lines and vast lengths of piping, these mega facilities are also synonymous with the image of the industry,...
Today, China’s market is demanding mega-size and multi-train ASUs for coal-to-liquid (CTL) applications. After the success of its mega ASU Project in Qatar, Linde can now present another success in building multi-train ASUs near Yinchuan...
The roots of the current technical fervour into the behaviour of gaseous high pressure hydrogen were set in the 1980s. Then, as now, it was the hydrogen embrittlement (HE) mechanism, which was of primary concern.
gasworld, together with Linde Gases and Linde Clean Technology, looks at the role and occurrence of industrial gases in the energy sector.
A changing industry – another boom and bust? This answer is very mixed. Before the drop in oil prices, there was certainly a boom within the greater hydrocarbon industry. Carbon dioxide (CO2) fracs are still...
Steam sparged water bath vaporizers are an extremely effective way to provide vaporization for a diverse range of applications, and offer a high level of reliability where steam is available as a heat source.
Power supply and water supply are always vital to the operation of cryogenic air separation units (ASU) to create the cryogenic conditions, or simply the ‘coldness’. The coldness created is considered a source of energy...
With few exceptions, carbon dioxide (CO2) delivered to most markets is in a liquid form, and when producing most product for most of the markets, purification is also an essential component.
A safety seminar held at the National Taipei University of Technology on 2nd September gathered more than 200 people to listen to experts in the field of industrial gas safety in the Asia-Pacific.
