SAMSON Group: Pioneering Control Valve Solutions for the Renewable Energy Future

Published: 6th November 2024 | Issue 96 Share article:

As the global energy landscape shifts towards sustainable solutions, SAMSON Group’s more than a century-long expertise in control valve technology positions us as a key player in this transition. With a proven track record in hydrogen and carbon capture services, SAMSON is well-equipped to meet the evolving demands of renewable energy.

Hydrogen: Powering a Clean Future

Hydrogen, with its high energy density and zero carbon emissions, is central to the global shift to clean energy. As industries embrace hydrogen as a sustainable fuel, SAMSON continues to lead in providing advanced valve solutions for key applications like electrolysis, where water is split into hydrogen and oxygen using renewable electricity. Our control valves ensure precise flow and pressure, supporting large-scale hydrogen production efficiently.

In ammonia production, hydrogen combines with nitrogen to create ammonia, essential for fertilisers and emerging as a fuel. SAMSON’s valves handle the extreme pressures and temperatures in this process, ensuring safety and performance.

For liquefaction, where hydrogen is cooled to -253°C for storage and transport, our cryogenic control valves offer reliable operation in these challenging conditions. Similarly, in refineries, hydrogen is critical for hydrocracking and hydrotreating, processes where SAMSON’s valves ensure efficient control and safe operations.

With hydrogen at the forefront of the energy transition, SAMSON’s proven valve technology supports its production, handling, and use across industries.

Carbon Capture: Valves for a Sustainable Future

As global attention turns towards reducing carbon emissions, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies are becoming increasingly important. The world is now poised to integrate CCUS on a larger scale, addressing the challenges of industrial CO2 emissions. SAMSON’s vast experience in this sector includes providing globe and butterfly valves for CO2 absorption, separation, and compression. These valves are critical in managing CO2 at various phases—gas, liquid, and supercritical—ensuring efficient operation under the extreme pressures and temperatures required in CCUS applications.

To protect against surge conditions in compressors and pipelines, SAMSON’s anti-surge valves offer robust solutions for safe operation. Our injection control valves also provide high-precision control during CO2 storage, helping to manage the complex flow and phase-change challenges associated with CO2 storage and transportation.

Innovating for Tomorrow

SAMSON’s modular valve designs, and innovative new technology, featuring exchangeable trims, bellows seals, and insulating sections, allow us to offer tailored control solutions for specific needs. From hydrogen liquefaction to CO2 injection, our valves provide the precision and durability necessary to tackle the challenges posed by renewable energy systems.

With the world ready to harness hydrogen and carbon capture technologies, SAMSON Group’s expertise and innovative solutions are critical to driving a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.
