Oil and Gas Refining
By definition, crude oil and natural gas are the raw materials of the petrochemical industry, with inert gases such as N2 and CO2 already used on a large-scale during their extraction. The processing of crude oil to the desired end products involves several steps. Again, gases from Messer are used in many of these process steps.

VPSA
Oxygen generator VPSA is Messer’s top-notch solution for on-site Oxygen production, providing high reliability and best-in-class performance, if oxygen purity in the range of 90 % to 94 % is required. A highly efficient source of Oxygen for use in a variety of industries such as glass, metallurgy, cement and chemicals.
The operating principle of VPSA units is based on the selective adsorption of certain components of gas mixtures. In this case, the adsorption rate plays a significant role in the operation of such installations. Since the cycle duration is short, adsorbed impurities saturate only the surface layers of the adsorbent granules, without having time to penetrate into the deeper layers. In this case, it is easy to carry out subsequent desorption by pumping out the accumulated impurities using a vacuum pump.
The plant layout is based on the Messer safety and reliability philosophy which has been applied for over 20 years in operating air separation plants for the supply of customers world-wide.
The oxygen generator VPSA has been designed for the ease of operation (under normal conditions) and low maintenance. In order to minimize personnel and operating costs, all equipment and process controls will be operated and monitored by a computer control system.
The plant is designed for automatic control and automatic operation under normal operating conditions.
The VPSA Oxygen generator is designed to produce Oxygen in gaseous form.
