Helium recovery and liquefaction Linde Engineering offers tailored solutions for the recovery and liquefaction of valuable helium gas from natural gas.

Helium is a rare gas and highly valued in the market, making its recovery and liquefaction from natural gas an attractive option even in small amounts. It is used, for example, in the space industry, MRI and NMR equipment (superconducting magnets), welding and shielding processes, lasers and optical fibre manufacturing.

We offer field-proven processes and plants for the cryogenic recovery of raw helium from natural gas, the purification of the raw helium in pressure swing adsorption (PSA) units, the liquefaction and production of high-purity helium (>99.999 %) and its storage at temperatures of about -270°C.

Depending on the capacity and helium concentration in the feed gas, we offer a range of tailored process technologies.
