🔍Feature article - Zero emissions stemless valve: A leak-free solution Actuation Lab has developed an innovative stemless valve that uses a magnetic coupling and torque amplification to eliminate emissions while maintaining high performance. This breakthrough could prevent millions of tons of greenhouse gas emissions and is ideal for hydrogen, toxic chemical and cryogenic applications. Key insights include: ➙Solutions: Stemless valves offer a solution to the challenges of dynamic seals, reducing wear and fugitive emissions in critical applications like handling toxic chemicals, hydrogen and cryogenic fluids. ➙Dragonfly valve: This valve leverages innovative magnetic coupling technology to provide leak-free operation, significantly improving environmental impact by preventing the leakage of harmful gases such as methane and hydrogen. ➙Cost-effectiveness and efficiency: Although stemless valves like the Dragonfly are ideal for applications where stem leakage is unacceptable, their higher upfront cost is mitigated by potential savings in total cost of ownership, such as smaller actuators and reduced need for large valve designs.
