The utilization of hydrogen as the primary energy carrier in the 21st century is rapidly gaining momentum as countries shift towards establishing a sustainable hydrogen economy to combat climate change. Strategies for sector coupling and national decarbonization are driving the expansion and integration of industries like chemical, petrochemical, and steel, along with fuel production capacities. Plans are underway to enhance storage and import structures for liquid and gaseous hydrogen while expanding distribution networks for cross-border cooperation projects. With the increasing deployment of modern electrolyzers, the industry is witnessing growth in hydrogen production capacities, especially in Germany with rising power-to-gas initiatives. Hydrogen, known for its clean energy attributes and high energy density compared to fossil fuels, is becoming a valuable substitute in various applications. The article also discusses the significant role of compressors, particularly screw compressors, in efficiently handling hydrogen gas, including considerations for purity levels and application-specific requirements. Emphasizing the importance of designing technology-open processes for operational efficiency, it highlights the versatility and reliability of screw technology in diverse gas applications, offering insights into oil-flooded and oil-free compressor types for hydrogen processing.
