Separator

In many areas of industry, the efficient purification of gases is a central component of safe and stable processes - especially when the gaseous media are contaminated with moisture, liquids or solid particles. THIELMANN ENERGIETECHNIK GmbH offers modern separator solutions that are precisely tailored to the properties and requirements of a wide range of applications.

Our systems are used wherever gases such as natural gas, biogas, hydrogen, process gas, LNG, nitrogen or air are used under challenging conditions. Whether in the chemical and petrochemical industry, polymer processes, natural gas extraction, food processing or in maritime environments - whenever gases are conveyed, stored or processed, undesirable by-products such as condensates, oil mist, liquid aerosols or solids are produced. These must be removed in order to ensure the reliable operation of systems and avoid downtimes.

THIELMANN ENERGIETECHNIK's separators have been developed to meet precisely these challenges. They efficiently eliminate unwanted impurities from the gas flow, even under difficult operating conditions. By combining various separation technologies - including mechanical separation, cyclonic operating principles, coalescence filters and specially designed droplet separators - a high cleaning performance is achieved with low pressure loss.

Our focus is on customized solutions: Each separator is designed precisely according to the requirements of the respective medium and area of application - be it for applications with extremely high purity requirements, for continuous operation on offshore platforms or for mobile locations in the marine sector. The specific parameters such as density, humidity, pressure and temperature of the medium are always taken into account to ensure optimum functionality.

With extensive industry experience and in-depth technical understanding, THIELMANN ENERGIETECHNIK GmbH is a reliable partner for sophisticated separation technologies. Our separators make a significant contribution to operational safety, protect plant technology from corrosion and enable compliance with strict quality specifications - wherever pure, dry and particle-free gases are essential.

1. chemical and petrochemical industry
In this particularly demanding industry, separators play a crucial role in the purification of process gases. They protect downstream systems such as reactors, compressors or pipelines from the entry of solid substances, aerosols and oil mist. The targeted use of our separation solutions increases process reliability and at the same time reduces the risk of corrosion and poisoning of catalytic systems - for example in gas treatment or in recovery processes.

2. oil and gas industry
In the exploration, treatment and processing of crude oil and natural gas, it is essential to separate gases from liquid components and solid impurities. Our separators reliably remove condensates, kerosenes, sand and oil droplets from raw gases or processed natural gas - in both upstream and downstream processes. This contributes to the longevity of the systems and ensures trouble-free operation.

3. power plants
In gas-fired power plants, our separation systems support the removal of water, corrosion residues and suspended solids from air and gas feeds. This protects sensitive components such as turbines, heat exchangers and boilers from deposits and contributes to the efficiency of plant operation. In gas turbine plants in particular, our separators ensure the purity of the fuel gas and enable stable energy generation.

4. food and beverage processing
In this industry, separators are used, for example, in the recovery of CO₂, in nitrogen applications or in compressed air-supported processes. They ensure the hygienic purity of process gases by reliably removing particles, oil mist and liquid droplets - a significant contribution to food safety and compliance with strict quality guidelines.

5. shipping and maritime applications
Space-saving and robust separation solutions are indispensable in the maritime sector. Our systems ensure clean supply air and technical gases on board by removing seawater droplets, soot particles and oil mist from pipes and air streams. This provides long-term protection for critical components such as engines, compressors and control systems - even under extreme conditions on the high seas.

6. metal and steel processing
In industrial production environments - for example in rolling mills or galvanic plants - separators play a central role in removing aerosols, metal particles and oily vapors from process gases or air streams. As a result, they not only help to protect the technical infrastructure, but also increase occupational safety and environmental protection.

Separators play a central role in numerous key industries. Wherever gases are contaminated with liquid or solid impurities, our solutions ensure reliable and efficient plant operation. As an experienced system partner, THIELMANN ENERGIETECHNIK GmbH develops customized separation systems that are tailored to the respective media, process requirements and industry-specific conditions.

Applications in chemistry, petrochemistry and polymer production
In chemical and petrochemical processes, gas purity is decisive for stability and product quality. Residues such as liquid droplets, oil mist or fine dust can damage sensitive catalysts and lead to corrosion or system failures. Our separators reliably eliminate such impurities - whether in gas treatment, reactor feed or condensate separation. Our systems also ensure that complex gas processes run smoothly and trouble-free in polymer production.

Solutions for natural gas extraction and gas networks
Contamination from water, kerosenes, solids or oil droplets typically occurs during the extraction and processing of natural gas. THIELMANN's separators were developed to remove these components from the gas flow - before the gas reaches compressors, pipelines or storage facilities. This ensures the operational safety of sensitive system components and increases the efficiency of downstream processes.

Gas applications in food processing
In the food industry, the purity of technical gases is a top priority. Whether carbon dioxide, nitrogen or compressed air - all gases must be free of particles, oil or moisture to ensure product safety. Our separation systems guarantee this purity in applications such as cooling, packaging, mixing or conveying and can be easily integrated into existing hygiene concepts.

Designed for maritime applications
Special requirements apply at sea: Salty air, high humidity and changing pressure conditions pose challenges for gas systems. THIELMANN separators ensure reliable gas quality even under extreme conditions - whether on ships, offshore platforms or in port facilities. Our compact, corrosion-resistant systems reliably protect machines, sensors and compressed air systems from harmful contamination.

Industrial processes and special solutions
In almost all areas of industry - from energy and process engineering to surface treatment - our separators make a valuable contribution to system availability. They prevent contaminants from entering sensitive processes and thus increase operational safety. For special applications where standard solutions reach their limits, THIELMANN develops individual separation concepts, precisely tailored to the medium, pressure and temperature conditions and operating environment.
