Applications

Pneumatic technology, with its unique advantages such as explosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high reliability, simple maintenance, and high power density, plays a vital role in all aspects of energy production, transportation, and conversion. For example:
1. Process automation control in the traditional fossil energy sector requires numerous valves that require automated control. Pneumatic actuators and valves are key devices for controlling the flow of fluids in pipelines. They offer fast response and precise control of opening, making them suitable for harsh operating conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and corrosive environments.
Material Transportation: Pneumatic conveying systems are used to efficiently and easily control materials such as powdered or granular catalysts, resins, and coal.
Safety and Environmental Protection: In emergencies, pneumatic systems are used to trigger safety devices such as emergency pressure relief valves and fire isolation valves. Pulse jet valves are also widely used in dust removal systems, using instantaneous bursts of high-pressure gas to remove dust from filter bags.

2. Energy Transportation and Storage
Compressor Stations: On long-distance natural gas pipelines, compressor stations are required at intervals to boost the pressure of the natural gas. These stations utilize numerous pneumatic valves to control the flow of natural gas and the operation of the compressors themselves.

Gas storage: Valve control for injection and production wells in underground gas storage facilities also relies on safe and reliable pneumatic systems.
