VSA technology to the southern region of Chile

Expanding Innovation: VSA Technology Successfully Introduced in Southern Chile

We are pleased to announce, that we have once again successfully introduced our VSA technology to the southern region of Chile!

Salmones Antartica, a prominent and important company in the Chilean aquaculture industry, specializing in the production of salmon and trout -both vital export products from Chile- has recently acquired two DOCS 200 units from PCI Brazil. These two DOCS units will be used for trout farming and they have been successfully installed in open-channel tanks, where oxygen is injected to maintain optimal conditions for the trout.

Covepa, our distributor in Chile, facilitated the delivery and operation of these units in Coreo and Peral Pisciculture installations from Salmones Antartica, located in Los Angeles, Chile.

 VSA Technology

To produce oxygen from air, PCI uses a proprietary Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) process that eliminates many of the design problems associated with traditional on-site gas separation systems (PSA). Our innovative VSA system eliminates the need for process valves, feed air compressors, associated dryers and feed air filtering systems. Our robust VSA oxygen process extracts maximum sieve and power efficiencies = low cost (both CapX and OpX) high purity oxygen generation. Oxygen produced is 93% purity. Additional product/systems features include load following, remote monitoring and diagnostics along with an industry only 10-year warranty on the adsorber bed vessel. Average life span of our systems is 10-15+ years.
