As gasworld readers well know, there are a range of applications where the presence of oxygen is both desirable and crucial (for example in the medical sector or in steel production) but there are also...
Gases, especially technical gases, are in use both day and night – literally everywhere. They play a decisive role in almost all industrial sectors and the role of gas analysis and control is, therefore, just...
As global preparations for the coronavirus (Covid-19) response reached their peak, concerns began to emerge over the ability of existing liquid oxygen system’s ability to vaporize and supply sufficient oxygen to fulfil exponentially increasing demand.
Gasification is a long-established technology with a fascinating future. As an early example at industrial scale, the Seattle Gas Light Company coal gasification plant in the State of Washington came into operation in 1906. At...
It may be a lesser known fact to those outside of Czech Republic or the cylinders community, for example, but 2020 is the year that Ostrava-based Cylinders Holding celebrates 115 years of continuous manufacturing of...

Thanks for taking time out with gasworld. What are we interrupting in your schedule today?
When Belgium-based IJsfabriek Strombeek n.v. began its journey into the industrial gases business in 1904, it did so as a manufacturer of (water) ice and later, carbon dioxide (CO2). More specifically, its entry was made...
One of the most promising routes to take the next steps on the road to full decarbonisation is carbon capture and storage (CCS) from existing combustion processes, such as cement production or electrical power generation.
The air that we breathe into our air separation unit (ASU) costs money in the form of electrical power. Our return comes from selling the oxygen, nitrogen and argon that we compress. Whilst the oxygen...
