Everllence screw compressors – the first choice for challenging gases

We offer a range of gas screw compressors with volume flows from around 200 m3/h to 100,000 m3/h at up to 52 bar. This allows for high pressure ratios and effective temperature control, making them suitable for critical applications where failure is not an option. 

The high compression ratios delivered by Everllence gas screw compressors even work with gases of low molecular weight. They are therefore ideal for processing hydrogen from electrolyzers as well as gases with changing molecular weight. Furthermore, our process gas screw compressors can reliably handle heavy hydrocarbons with significant impurities such as dust, particles, or liquids. 

Clean and robust gas screw compressors

Robust Everllence oil-free screw compressors are able to use even the most challenging gases during their many years of uninterrupted operation. Our gas screw compressors combine the advantages of centrifugal and reciprocating compressors, operating as positive displacement machines with rotating parts only.

Benefits for our clients include long maintenance intervals, short downtimes, and low operating costs.

Practical applications: where technology meets practice

Everllence gas screw compressors in use across the globe

Demand for hydrogen is rising, but compressing this low-density gas is challenging. Everllence has more than 50 years of expertise in hydrogen compression. For electrolyzers up to 300 MW, the flow can be handled by a single compressor unit bringing the hydrogen from atmospheric pressure to approximately 16 bar.

Process gas screw compressors FAQs

Using a screw compressor for process gases offers several advantages, making it a preferred choice in many industrial applications. These compressors provide continuous, pulsation-free gas flow, which is essential for sensitive processes. They are highly efficient, durable, and capable of operating under varying load conditions with minimal maintenance. Additionally, screw compressors can handle dirty, wet, or corrosive gases more effectively than other compressor types, thanks to their robust design and advanced sealing systems. Their compact size and quiet operation further enhance their suitability for demanding process gas applications.
A process gas screw compressor is a type of positive displacement compressor specifically designed to handle various industrial gases under high pressure and demanding conditions. It uses two intermeshing helical rotors – commonly referred to as the male and female rotors – to trap and compress gas within a sealed chamber. As the rotors turn, the gas is drawn in, compressed as the space between the rotors decreases, and then discharged at a higher pressure. Process gas screw compressors are widely used in industries such as chemical processing, petrochemicals, and gas treatment due to their reliability, efficiency, and ability to handle a wide range of gas compositions.
