Atlas Copco Philippines was recently invited to the opening ceremony of the Texas Instruments (TI)Air Liquide Philippines (ALPI) Bulk Gas Plant last January 16, 2009 at the TI-ALPI Gas Yard, Clark Freeport Zone, Pampanga. Johan Lindqvist, Air Liquide President and CEO, was there to open the ceremony.

The plant is designed and installed as an end-to-end system to optimize the cost efficiency of bulk gas deliveries, a huge portion of which is nitrogen.

Big role

To date, this is the Philippines’ largest - largest centrifugal air compressor, largest screw air compressor, and largest heat of compression desiccant dryer installation in the Philippines.
