Upcoming webcast: Hydrogen Blending at Compressor Stations

Join Turbomachinery International Magazine on November 9th, 11 AM EST for the latest Editor's Series webcast.

This webcast will discuss the primary considerations when blending hydrogen in pipelines and compressor stations. Above concentrations of 10%, the properties of the blended gas begin to significantly change the flow capabilities of the stations. Compressors may not be able to meet delivery requirements without modification.

Key learning objectives include:

Discover the factors limiting centrifugal compressor performance when operating with hydrogen
blends.
Discover the factors inhibiting the speed, horsepower, and flow capacity of reciprocating
compressor operating with hydrogen blends.
Find out the compressor modifications needed to operate safely and efficiently with concentrations
of hydrogen above 10%.

Power your knowledge with the latest in turbine technology, engineering advances, and energy solutions. Subscribe to Turbomachinery International today.
