…the energy transition. We outline how centrifugal, reciprocating and screw compressors differ, the energy requirements of compression, compressor costs and leading companies. $199.00 – Purchase Checkout Added to cart Next we tabulate…
CO2 is a strange gas. This matters as energy transition will require over 120 GW of compressors for 6GTpa of CCUS. This 13-page note explains CO2 compression and CO2’s strange…
…more flexible (data here). And they may also be easier to decarbonize directly (example here). How does a gas turbine work? First, air is drawn into a compressor. The compression…
The density of gases matters in turbines, compressors, for energy transport and energy storage. Hence this data-file models the density of gases from first principles, using the Ideal Gas Equations…
CO2 is a strange gas. This matters as energy transition will require over 120 GW of compressors for 6GTpa of CCUS. This 13-page notes explains CO2’s strange properties, which helps…
…blue hydrogen and even putting CCS stacks on ships, with moderate modifications of otherwise mature technology. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2021/10/21/carbon-capture-how-big-is-the-opportunity/ (9) Compressors. Moving more gas molecules rather than coal molecules, moving more CO2…
…conventional energy and chemical companies have good pre-existing experience with engineering and managing pressure-vessels, and raising gases to high pressures using compressors. But is the need for compression rising in…

…LNG plants will have lower energy use. But the clearest opportunity to lower Scope 1&2 CO2 intensity of an LNG plant is electrifying the compressors, and sourcing lower carbon electricity….
…of input variables, such as capex costs, pipeline distance, transport volumes, compression energy, energy costs, operating and maintenance costs. Our conclusion is that new hydrogen pipelines will cost 2x new gas…
