the forefront of the industry in cryogenic gas,
high recovery NGL, gas-to-liquids (GTL) and
compression processes. For 18 years, we
have achieved a prominent position by maintaining
a thorough knowledge of gasification technology.
DESCON has worked on more than 100 gasification
projects. Our expertise in cryogenics, air
separation, liquefaction, and gas processing add
value to each client's project. We can provide
gasification plant process engineering,
optimization studies, Standard Operating
Procedures (SOPs), PFDs, P&IDs, startup and
commissioning services. DESCON is recognized
worldwide as a leader in Process Engineering of
cryogenics and gas-to-liquids processing.
Utility &
Offsite Systems
DESCON's expertise
in utility and offsite systems for grass roots
and revamped facilities has generated cost
savings for clients through enhanced
