Condenser Vacuum Pumps for Geothermal Steam Turbines
In geothermal power generation, high-temperature, high-pressure geothermal steam is used to rotate turbines and generators in order to generate electricity. Among the various forms of clean renewable energy that do not emit CO₂, geothermal power generation is attracting attention as a stable power source that is not affected by daily or seasonal changes. However, geothermal steam contains hydrogen sulfide and other non-condensable gases that need to be continuously bled from the condenser. Because these gasses are highly corrosive, the condenser vacuum pump must incorporate highly corrosion-resistant materials such as SCS16/SUS316L.
At Tsurumi, we design the entire condenser vacuum pump system, including the steam ejector. We have a wealth of experience in rehabilitating existing condenser vacuum pumps, and regardless of whether they are newly installed or rehabilitated, we can deliver condenser vacuum pumps offering high efficiency and low energy consumption.

An almighty vacuum pump that supports special corrosion resistant materials and mechanical seals. We have a wealth of experience as a vacuum source for production equipment used in the petrochemical industry and for pharmaceuticals.
Large-capacity, High-efficiency Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump Suitable for Gas removal/extraction system for Geothermal Power Generation, and can be supplied not only as Vacuum Pump but also in hybrid system that combines a steam ejector. Contributing to the Use of Renewable Energy to Achieve the SDGs.
This vacuum pump draws air from the inside of a condenser such as in a thermal power plant and conforms to the US HEI standard, so it is possible to select a model immediately. In addition, it is also possible to select according to individual specifications such as for geothermal power, waste, and private power generation.
