Air Products Expands Capabilities of Its Mobile Cryogenic Hydrogen Compressor System for Urgent and Cyclical Gas Supply Needs

LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa., Aug. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Products (NYSE:APD) has expanded the capabilities of its patented Mobile Cryogenic Hydrogen Compressor (CHC) system in response to customers' needs for urgent and cyclical gas supply. The improved CHC system not only can connect directly to a customer's house-line to supply gaseous hydrogen to its operation, but can also serve as a mobile transfill system by filling gas tube trailers at a customer's site.

The versatile Mobile CHC—part of the company's Air Products Express Services (APEX), which provides safe, reliable and fast temporary gas supply—offers higher pressure and flow capabilities than other systems available in the market today. Air Products' Mobile CHC also provides significant operational efficiencies, including improved site safety management, use of existing infrastructure and utilities, zero capital investment, lower distribution costs, and increased reliability of supply.

Air Products has been providing spot hydrogen service for over 40 years. As the world's largest producer and supplier of merchant hydrogen, the company operates a robust and widespread network capable of supplying customers with short-term hydrogen when and where it is needed.
