탄소 포집 프로젝트에서 API 618 컴프레서를 위한 5가지 설계 팁

Carbon capture compression requires API 618-compliant reciprocating compressors engineered to handle aggressive CO₂ streams at high pressures. Proper design minimizes pulsation, ensures reliability, and meets stringent operational expectations. Here are five key design tips to maximize performance and uptime in carbon capture systems.


1. Engineered for High Pressure & Accurate Loading

Carbon capture compressors often require discharge pressures up to 2,200 psig (≈150 bar) or more  . API 618 units must deliver reliable compression under these extreme loads. Design pistons, rods, wearbands, and crankshafts with materials (e.g., forged steel, tungsten carbide coating) and tolerances tailored for CO₂ chemistry and cyclic stress .


2. Robust Pulsation and Vibration Control

CO₂’s fluid properties can induce strong pulsations in discharge piping. API 618 standard requires acoustic-mechanical design analysis per Design Approach 2 or 3—using tools such as TAPS to simulate pulsation forces and ensure mechanical frequency separation  Ensure piping supports, pulsation bottles, and anchors are engineered to prevent resonance fatigue and system damage.


3. Minimize Leakage & Environmental Emissions

CO₂ systems must minimize emissions due to regulatory and climate concerns. Compressors should incorporate purged packing cases, purge gas capability, and vent collection systems to eliminate leakage from seals without venting CO₂ directly to atmosphere . API 618 packaging supports these configurations for leak control and safety compliance.


4. Design for Long Maintenance Intervals & Mechanical Integrity

API 618-compliant process compressors are designed for long stroke life—targeting up to three years between major overhauls through conservative piston speeds and robust mechanical design . Add distance pieces to accommodate thermal growth and maintain seal integrity under cyclic load


5. Follow ASME and API Standards for Overall System Design

Per API 618 and ASME B31.3/B31.8 piping codes, compressor installations must integrate proper mechanical restraint, pipe stress analysis, and acoustic validation for reliable operation . Always validate revamps or retrofits against current API 618/688 acoustic standards to avoid vibration failure modes
