In this episode, we explore how DILO is leveraging over 70 years of gas handling expertise to develop practical hydrogen solutions. From portable refueling stations to automated service carts and precision-engineered fittings, the focus is on real-world applications that make hydrogen safe, efficient, and ready for daily use.

Highlights:

• Mobile H₂ refueling station: flexible, up to 300 bar, multi-vessel support
• Service cart: automates critical tasks like depressurizing and leak testing
• Fittings & pipes: ultra-low leak rate (1×10⁻⁸ mbar∙l/s), high durability, easy assembly

Final Thought:
Tiny details like leak rates and pipe sizes are the silent enablers of the hydrogen transition.

In this episode, we explore a cutting-edge process for sustainably managing alternative insulating gases, with a focus on C4-FN. Instead of disposing of used gas mixtures, this method allows for high-purity (99 mole %) recovery and reuse of the core component, offering both environmental and economic benefits. We break down the multistep reconditioning process, its high efficiency (over 95% recovery), and how it supports circular economy principles. Key takeaways include reduced CO2 emissions, streamlined logistics, and full regulatory compliance—all through a certified, closed-loop system.
One vision: zero emissions. Can this approach inspire other industries?

This episode of the DILO TechTalk Podcast focuses on sulphur hexafluoride (SF₆), a widely used insulating and arc-quenching gas in electrical switchgear that is also a potent greenhouse gas. The spotlight is on a sustainable solution offered by DILO: certified reconditioned SF₆ gas. Instead of producing new gas or disposing of used SF₆—which both have a high environmental impact—DILO cleans and reuses existing gas through an advanced cryogenic separation process.

The result is high-purity gas that often exceeds the standards for new SF₆ in key areas such as moisture, acidity, and contaminant levels. This approach not only ensures technical reliability but also offers economic advantages, including lower costs compared to new gas, reduced disposal expenses, and potential tax benefits in regions with CO₂ regulations.

DILO also provides full service—from collection to testing and return—and offers flexible cylinder options. Overall, the reconditioned gas matches or outperforms new SF₆ while supporting a circular economy, making it a compelling solution for a more sustainable energy infrastructure.
