Air Liquide to build ASU in South Korea

0

Air Liquide Engineering & Construction will design and build an air separation unit (ASU) in South Korea as part of a new contract with steel producer POSCO.

To be installed at POSCO’s Pohang site, the ASU will produce oxygen, nitrogen and argon and have a production capacity of 1,700 tonnes per day of oxygen.

The oxygen and argon produced will be used to transform iron into high quality steel and enable POSCO to improve efficiency of the production process, Air Liquide explained in a statement.

This new ASU, replacing two existing units on the Pohang site, will be designed and built using Air Liquide’s best-in-class cryogenics technologies, thereby maximising energy efficiency and reducing environmental footprint.
