SF6 Recycling: Guaranteed SF6 Recycling Program:

Concorde Specialty Gases has developed AccuDri, a proprietary technology for the comprehensive recycling of contaminated SF6 gas.  The purity of recycled SF6 gas using Concorde’s new technology is 99.99% or better.

AccuDri – SF6 Gas Recycling Technology
by Concorde Specialty Gases

With its excellent properties and arc switching characteristics, Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) gas has been now used in the high voltage gas-insulated switchgears for more than 4 decades. Nevertheless it is a Greenhouse gas (GWP of SF6 gas is listed 22,800) and it release in the atmosphere needs to be limited.

Seeing a need in the industry Concorde Specialty Gases has developed a proprietary technology for the comprehensive recycling of contaminated SF6 gas. A closed loop process, where no impurities are released into the atmosphere.

The purity of recycled SF6 gas using Concorde’s new technology is 99.99% or better, which exceeds the industries standard (ASTM 2472 D) for new gas. Using recycled SF6 gas will help reduce carbon emissions and could result in a significant cost saving potential for end-users.
