Centre for Compressor Technology
City St George’s, University of London
Pioneering Research in Compression and Expansion Technologies for Future Energy Systems.
Our Mission
The mission of the Centre for Compressor Technology is to advance the understanding and development of rotary positive displacement machines for compression and expansion processes. We aim to enhance the efficiency of these machines across a broader range of conditions, contributing to the achievement of Net Zero 2050 targets by reducing environmental impact and manufacturing costs. Additionally, we are dedicated to supporting industry in the research, design, manufacture, and operation of these machines in both existing and innovative applications.
Our Vision
Our vision is to lead the development of rotary positive displacement technology, enabling its integration into novel energy systems and the recovery of power from low-grade heat. Through pioneering research and collaboration with industry, we aspire to redefine the role of these machines in sustainable energy solutions towards a cleaner Net0 future.
