ammonia unloading compressor with symmetrically balanced structure

Ammonia unloading compressor is a kind of equipment specially designed for unloading, loading, dumping, residual gas recovery and residual liquid recovery during the transportation of liquefied gases (e.g. ammonia, Freon, ethane, propylene, etc.).

Description

The ammonia unloading compressor is designed to ensure a stable and efficient transfer of gas by increasing its pressure, enabling smooth movement from a low-pressure environment to a high-pressure storage tank or pipeline system. With an integrated, skid-mounted design, all components are conveniently installed on a single frame for easy transportation and installation.

Features of Ammonia Unloading Compressor

  1. High efficiency and energy saving: Integrated unit reduces the need for ancillary equipment, lowers energy consumption, and improves operational efficiency.
  2. Easy installation and transport: Compact, skid-mounted design makes it simple to transport and install, minimizing the complexity of site construction.
  3. High reliability: Built with high-strength materials for long-term, stable operation even under high-pressure and harsh conditions.
  4. Easy maintenance: Designed for convenient routine inspection and maintenance, with efficient lubrication systems to ease upkeep.
  5. Multiple options: Available in various structural forms (single-bar vertical, double-bar vertical, symmetrical balanced) and lubrication methods (pressure or splash), adaptable to different working environments.
  6. Long service life: Durable construction and quality materials ensure long-lasting wear parts, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Working Principle of Ammonia Unloading Compressor

  1. Gas intake: Liquefied gas (e.g., ammonia) at low pressure enters the compressor from the inlet pipe.
  2. Gas compression: The gas is mechanically compressed, its volume reduced, and its pressure increased, often through multiple compression stages.
  3. Gas discharge: Compressed, high-pressure gas is discharged into storage tanks or pipeline systems, with pressure higher than the storage tank to facilitate transfer.
  4. Lubrication system: Depending on operational needs, either pressure or splash lubrication systems ensure smooth operation and extend equipment life.

Application Areas of Ammonia Unloading Compressor

  1. Chemical industry: Essential for loading, unloading, transportation, storage, distribution, and recycling of ammonia, Freon, ethane, propylene, and other gases—crucial in fertilizer and refrigerant production.
  2. Energy industry: Facilitates efficient transfer of liquefied gases (e.g., LNG), enabling smooth unloading from tankers or containers to storage tanks or pipelines.
  3. Freezing and refrigeration industry: Used to compress and transfer liquid ammonia in industrial freezing systems, ensuring proper operation of freezing equipment.
  4. Residual gas recovery: Recovers residual gas and liquid in chemical production, maximizing resource use and minimizing emissions.
  5. Hazardous chemicals handling: Enables safe and stable transportation and unloading of hazardous gases like liquefied ammonia, protecting operators and ensuring efficient equipment operation.
  6. Environmental protection: Reduces harmful gas emissions in exhaust treatment and gas recovery, supporting compliance with environmental regulations.
