Air Liquide’s Post

Air Liquide teams are proud to have participated in the maiden flight of #Ariane6 ! 🚀 Since the start of the Ariane program in 1973, we have contributed to every successive evolution of the #launcher, from Ariane 1 to Ariane 6. The 50-year collaboration has already seen 262 Ariane flights to date. We supply #cryogenic lines and equipment, maintenance and operation of all launch pad cryogenic equipment, as well as the fluids required for all launcher preparation sequences (nitrogen and helium) and for #propulsion, notably hydrogen and oxygen. Thank you to our teams and partners for this #technological and human adventure. Together, we continue to push back the frontiers of #space exploration! 🌠 ArianeGroup European Space Agency - ESA © ESA - S. Corvaja © ESA - M. Pédoussaut

Safety is a top priority for Air Liquide, and while we strive to improve safety in all our operations, we also look for new technologies in wider ecosystems. That's why we are working with innovative #startups! For instance, through ALIAD Venture Capital by Air Liquide, we collaborate with the startup Distran, focused on boosting safety standards in #hydrogen mobility. This partnership has been particularly fruitful: ✅ DISTRAN develops cutting-edge ultrasonic imaging cameras, allowing more effective monitoring and detection of potential gas leaks. In 2023, ALIAD took a minority participation in this start-up to support the company’s growth. ✅ In 2023, the start-up developed a new version of its "SonicView Pro" technology, specifically adapted to Air Liquide's needs, in close collaboration with experts from the Group. ✅ After having successfully demonstrated their performance and reliability, these #cameras can now be used in heavy-duty hydrogen refueling stations and filling centers designed by Air Liquide advanced Technologies. By supporting innovative start-ups, we create a win-win relationship with technological, strategic and financial opportunities for both start-ups and Air Liquide! 🎯

A project headed in the right direction! 🚢 This morning we were in the front row to witness the passage of the barge carrying the equipment that will make up the future SMR on the Grandpuits site, for the joint project between Air Liquide and TotalEnergies. This innovative project will enable the production and valorization of #renewable, #lowcarbon #hydrogen, in the context of the conversion of the Grandpuits site into a #biorefinery!
