A Gas Compressor is a mechanical device which is used extensively in the Natural Gas transportation through pipelines by any natural

gas
marketing organization. This device is used to compress the volume of the natural gas thereby increasing its pressure. This enables the natural
gas to easily flow to long distances within the large trunk pipelines without any drop in pressure. A Gas Compressor can be related to a pump;
however, the difference between both is that the compressor compresses the volume of the material to be transported in a pipeline and it
moves itself because of high pressure being generated, whereas a pump just pushes the material to move forward. Since liquids are not
compressible, the oil and gas industry does not use compressors for transportation of crude oil or petroleum products in a pipeline. It uses
pumps. But since natural gas can be compressed to great extent, gas compressors are used to transport this pressurized natural gas
1. Construction

Construction sites use large air compressors to power drills, hammers, and compactors. Power from compressed air is essential on
remote sites without reliable access to electricity, petrol and diesel as compressed air provides uninterrupted power.

2. Manufacturing

Rotary screw equipment ensures that food, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturing deliver clean, contaminant-free, and tightly
sealed products. Rotary screw equipment can simultaneously power the conveyor belts, sprayers, presses, and packaging.

3. Agriculture

Tractors, sprayers, pumps, and crop conveyors are powered by air compressors to complete the farming and agriculture operations.
Dairy farm and greenhouse ventilation machinery also require compressed air that distributes steady and clean air.

4. Engines

Vehicle engines contain air compressors for heating and cooling, as well as in air brakes for larger trucks and trains. Compressed air
also runs many theme park rides.
5. Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Air and heat pump systems of HVAC units usually have rotary screw models built in. Rotary screw models conduct vapour
compression refrigeration that entails compressing air vapours, raising the temperature, and modulating the all-important refrigerant
cycles.

6. Spray Painting

Small air compressors are used in spray painting by powering airbrushes for personal and commercial use. Airbrushes range from
delicate desktop brushes for artists to larger brushes for repainting vehicles.

7. Energy Sector

Oil drilling relies on air compressors for functionality in the energy sector. Safe and dependable air compressed drilling equipment in
oil rig operations is imperative to the safety of the crew. Air compressed oil drilling equipment is unique with their spark-free delivery
and stable outputs.

8. Pressure Washing

Compressed air is used to pump high pressured water through pressure cleaners and water blasters for more effective
cleaning of concrete floors and brickwork, stain removal, and engine bay degreasing.

9. Inflating

Air compressor pumps can be used to inflate vehicle and bicycle tyres, balloons, air beds, and other inflatables with compressed air.

10. Scuba Diving

Scuba diving is reliant on compressed air with the use of tanks that store pressurised air allowing divers to stay underwater for longer.
