Efficient CO₂ liquefaction for industrial applications
CO₂ liquefaction is an essential process in various branches of industry, particularly in the semiconductor industry, where liquid CO₂ is used for residue-free cleaning of devices and equipment. As carbon dioxide (CO₂) is gaseous under normal conditions, it must be converted into a liquid state by increasing the pressure and/or cooling it down.
The process begins with the compression of the CO₂ in a metal diaphragm compressor, which pressurises the gas to a high level. The compressed, partially supercritical CO₂ is then passed through a cooler, which cools it down to the condensation point. The subsequent expansion in a nozzle produces CO₂ snow, which is ideal for absolutely residue-free cleaning.
The metal diaphragm compressors from sera HYDROGEN are the perfect solution for this, as they ensure particle-free and oil-free compression - a basic requirement for the purity of the CO₂. They also impress with their energy efficiency, reliability and easy maintenance, making them the preferred choice for industrial processes with high availability requirements.
