Skid mounted process for on-demand acetylene production. Skid mounted process for on-demand acetylene production. This project aims to develop a new, cheaper, safer and easier process for providing acetylene for the metal fabrication and construction industries. Mains gas (methane) will be converted into acetylene, on-site and on-demand, using a highly compact, transportable skid-based gas generator that is self-operating with a single touch ON-OFF system. This should remove the need to deliver ....Skid mounted process for on-demand acetylene production. Skid mounted process for on-demand acetylene production. This project aims to develop a new, cheaper, safer and easier process for providing acetylene for the metal fabrication and construction industries. Mains gas (methane) will be converted into acetylene, on-site and on-demand, using a highly compact, transportable skid-based gas generator that is self-operating with a single touch ON-OFF system. This should remove the need to deliver bottled acetylene to metal fabrication works, eliminating road transport and storage risks. There is a high potential for export of the plants to countries like China and India that use a calcium carbide-based process as a distributed acetylene source.Read moreRead less
