Turboexpander-Compressor
These high-speed rotating Turboexpander-Compressor machines are typically used in cryogenic
applications including natural gas, petrochemical, and air separation industries. As high
pressure gas is expanded across the turbine, the majority of the energy potential in the gas is
extracted and transferred through the shaft and to the compressor. The resultant pressure
reduction combined with efficient energy extraction produces the refrigeration necessary for
cryogenic gas processing. The power extracted can then be used elsewhere in the process, such

as a booster compressor. The efficiency inherent in the Turboexpander-Compressor makes it
the preferred turboexpander for natural gas and cryogenic gas processing within the
petrochemical industry and other industrial processes requiring refrigeration.
