What You Will Learn In The Webinar
Hydrogen compression might sound simple - compressing hydrogen from pressure A to pressure B - but the challenges lie in the technical details. Noise, vibration, pulsations, temperature issues, installation, maintenance, and redundancy are just a few aspects that become critical, particularly in large-scale plants.
Our speakers are technical experts who won’t just showcase the strengths of today’s compressor technology but will also dive deep into its challenges.
Why? Because understanding these issues early can save you significant time, effort, and costs - or help your company develop solutions for them.
Here’s what you will learn:
- The Real Challenges in Hydrogen Compression: A detailed look at pulsations, vibrations, and other key technical issues in reciprocating compressors.
- Understanding Pulsating Flow: Insights from EFRC’s latest study on “Flow Meter Errors in Pulsating Flow of Reciprocating Compressor Systems.”
- Expert Tips for Practical Solutions: Lessons learned from 75+ years of combined experience in troubleshooting and optimizing compressor systems.
Our Speakers:
- Tim Norden, Head of Plant Engineering at Neuman & Esser Group, has nearly a decade of experience in compressor engineering. He is an expert in pulsation and vibration studies (API 618 and API 688) and specializes in computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
- Leonard van Lier, Pulsation and Vibration Consultant at TNO, has more than 25 years of experience in performing studies, training professionals, and participating in industry standardization efforts.
- André Eijk, a retired senior consultant with 41 years at TNO, is passionate about pulsation and vibration control in compressors, pumps, pipe systems, and process equipment.
For this session, all three speakers will wear their EFRC hats - the European Forum for Reciprocating Compressors, which sets industry guidelines and represents European manufacturers in API standardization efforts and they’ll share their decades of expertise during the Q&A session.
