Siemens will be supplying one synthesis gas compressor and one propylene compressor to Datang International Power Generation. The synthesis gas compressor, an eight-stage single-shaft compressor in a horizontally split case, will be driven by an SST-600 condensing steam turbine and will be used to compress the synthesis gas from 31.7 bar to 86 bar.
The propylene compressor is a single shaft, horizontally split compressor, which will compress the propylene from 1.05 to 17.6 bar. The driver for this compressor will be an SST-600 condensing steam turbine with an output of over 40 MW. The compressor trains are scheduled for delivery in the spring of 2008.
