Rocket Science: Engines for thrust to high destinations
Latitude is developing a launch vehicle and engines to send small satellites into space, and HEROSE products are part of the rocket‘s fuelling process. The countdown begins, the valves open, and the kerosene-like rocket fuel RP-1 flows into...
Dairy cow on ice – High-tech in the cowshed
Cattle semen is transported via cryogenic logistics chain and modern reproduction methods ensure animal welfare and productivity. State-of-the-art reproduction methods are used to ensure optimal cattle offspring. Cattle semen from the best bulls is transported internationally to customers...
The Green Alternative: Synthetic LNG
The power-to-gas plant in Werlte, Lower Saxony, has been a pioneer in the production of green energy since 2013 and relies on HEROSE valves for methane liquefaction. In autumn 2021, the ship ElbBLUE will sail for the first time with...
Oxygen for South America
Sophisticated logistics processes and modern valve technology help to supply the world with atmospheric gases. The pandemic brings medical oxygen into focus. Specialist for atmospheric gas transport via tank containers Air gases are often produced where they are used –...
How service works – installation, testing, maintenance
The valves and fittings that HEROSE offers meet the highest standards of sealing and quality. However, they also have to be correctly installed, tested and maintained – only then can they display their strengths to the full. Solutions gleaned from...
Green hydrogen, the crude oil of the future?
Green hydrogen can contribute to the decarbonisation of transport and industry as a storage technology for sustainable energy. The world agreed in the Paris Climate Agreement that the economy should become greenhouse neutral between 2050 and 2100. A fundamental transformation...
Out of thin air – Oxygen from air separation for glass wool
At temperatures over 1000 °C and with oxygen support from air separation, glass candy floss is produced, which has excellent insulating properties. The new air separation plant in Speyer extracts 260 tonnes of nitrogen and 130 tonnes of oxygen from...
The engine that is coming out of the cold
In rocket technology vacuum-insulated pipelines are used for cryogenically liquified gases Three. Two. One. Ignition! At the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) in Lampoldshausen, engineer Gerd Brümmer is conducting tests on the current sample at a safe distance. The...
Hydrogen is the energy carrier of the future
In the Paris Climate Agreement, the global community decided that the economy should become greenhouse gas neutral between 2050 and 2100. In order to achieve the ambitious goals, a fundamental transformation of the energy system is necessary beyond the pure...
