Addressing the Key Challenges of the Pump & Turbomachinery Industry With Innovative Solutions and Reduced Life Cycle Costs

TPS 2024 tackled the latest challenges, solutions, and technologies in the turbomachinery industry.

The theme of this year’s show was achievements and needs to unlock a net-zero future in propulsion and power.

The industry recognizes two methods of decarbonization with gas turbines: low-carbon fuels and post-combustion carbon capture.

Anti-surge control systems prevent damage and improve turbomachinery performance by using controllers, valves, and transmitters to measure flow, pressure, and temperature.

Session speakers offer an analysis of gas turbines, including their working principles, thermodynamics, condition monitoring and maintenance, and bottom-cycle performance.

Fabio Zanetti de Souza of Compressor Controls Corp. shares how a compressor’s control system is a central contributor to increasing energy efficiency and reducing emissions.
