On July 3-4, 2024, at the Valve World Asia exhibition, GEKO Valves&Controls showcased its latest advancements in addressing the challenges presented by hydrogen in new energy applications. With hydrogen being recognized as a key future energy source,GEKO Valves&Controls'' innovations are poised to make significant contributions to the industry. In his keynote speech at the Valve World Asia seminar, GEKO''s General Manager Steve Huang emphasized the growing importance of valve technology in applications involving specialty gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Hydrogen''s high flammability and explosiveness, combined with its extremely small molecular size that easily penetrates common sealing materials, make it a challenging substance to handle. Additionally, the transportation and storage of hydrogen often involve extreme temperatures and pressures, requiring valves to offer exceptional safety and stability. These factors impose stringent performance and sealing requirements on valves. To address these challenges, GEKO Valves&Controls has developed new composite sealing materials with outstanding corrosion resistance and sealing capabilities. Advanced machining and grinding technologies have been employed to meet these rigorous demands. Furthermore, GEKO is actively exploring the feasibility and alternatives of the latest materials available in the international market to ensure stable operation of its valves under extreme conditions. GEKO''s commitment to innovation and excellence was fully demonstrated in their presentation, highlighting their ability to adapt and excel in the evolving field of new energy applications. As the industry continues to embrace hydrogen as a primary energy source, GEKO Valves&Controls is expected to play a crucial role in ensuring the safety, stability, and efficiency of hydrogen applications. With the growing prospects and current status of green hydrogen production and green methanol synthesis in the maritime sector, GEKO Valves&Controls will facilitate applications between the shipping industry, shipbuilding, and marine fuel industries, providing high-quality valves for hydrogen use.
