A gas processing system includes a vessel defining a cavity for processing a gas. The vessel includes a process gas inlet for accepting process gas at an input pressure, and a process gas outlet for discharging process gas at an output pressure. The gas processing system further includes a shaft coupled to the vessel and a multistage sealing system comprising multiple seals spaced along the shaft. The shaft is configured to transfer mechanical energy to or from gas in the vessel. Each adjacent pair of seals defines a corresponding pressure space therebetween. One of the pressure spaces is an equalizing pressure space in hydraulic communication with the process gas inlet via a flow line, such that in operation, pressure in the equalizing pressure space is maintained at an equalized pressure with respect to a pressure in the process gas inlet.

An oil-free water-injected screw air compressor comprises a housing that encloses two rotors for generating compressed air, an air water separator for separating the water from the compressed air. Injecting water during compression can remove the heat of compression and thus enhance efficiency of compression. However, injecting water may complicate bearing lubrication. According to the present subject matter, these challenges are tackled using a sealing system for isolation of bearing lubricant from water used for cooling.

Vacuum pump having a housing which defines a pump chamber and a drive chamber. A rotor is arranged in the housing, wherein the rotor has at least one rotor element arranged in the pump chamber for conveying a gaseous medium from an inlet to an outlet. Therein, the rotor extends from the pump chamber through a shaft feedthrough into the drive chamber. The shaft feedthrough has a connection, wherein the connection is connected to an underpressure, so that a barrier gas flows from the drive chamber at least partially through the shaft feedthrough to the connection.

A cantilever vertical screw vacuum pump is provided. The vacuum pump has a lubrication system, in the system, an oil splashing sleeve splashes lubricating oil in an oil chamber, the lubricating oil is splashed to the oil guide plates and enters two inner shaft sleeves through oil inlet holes, the lubricating oil is splashed by rotations of lower bearings to lubricate upper bearings and bearing gland oil seal assemblies. A fit between an oil baffle and a lower cover shaft sleeve is a clearance fit, and the oil baffle prevents the lubricating oil from entering a vertical motor. A pressure difference between screw rods is used to output reflux air from a near exhaust end of the screw rods, the reflux air is cooled in a coolant by a reflux cooling pipe, and the cooled reflux air is delivered to the screw rods to reduce an air temperature of the pump chamber.

A pump assembly may include a rotor having a rotor shaft portion; a stator having a bore portion defining a bore for receiving the rotor shaft portion; and a circumferential protrusion extending radially into the bore between the bore portion and the rotor shaft portion, wherein at least one of the protrusion and a corresponding surface of the rotor shaft portion or the bore portion is configured to be abraded by the other upon experiencing contact therewith. In this way, the gap between the bore portion and the rotor shaft portion may be at least partially filled by the circumferential protrusion in order to provide a seal. The protrusion and one of the bore portion and the rotor shaft portion may be formed from different hardness materials.
