In recent years, the price of helium has remained high and has become one of the cost pressures of concern in industries such as semiconductor manufacturing, scientific research and experimentation, low-temperature engineering, and leak detection systems. Due to the high dependence of helium resources on international supply chains and the fact that they are mostly obtained as by-products during natural gas processing, once there are fluctuations in energy production, transportation, or geopolitical situations in major production areas, terminal gas costs are easily affected. Recently, international markets have also shown that production disruptions in major supply regions such as Qatar will directly affect global helium supply, further amplifying the risk of price fluctuations.
In this context, the gas consumption model that relies solely on purchasing helium gas is facing challenges. For high-frequency and continuous helium enterprises, helium is not only a production consumable, but also a key resource that affects operating costs and supply stability. When the international market supply is tight, price increases, extended delivery cycles, and increased procurement uncertainty may all have an impact on a company's production plan.
Faced with the high cost of helium gas, the market value of helium recovery and purification equipment is further highlighted. By recycling, purifying, refining, and reusing waste helium tail gas, detection exhaust gas, process exhaust gas, etc., enterprises can reduce the amount of new gas procurement, improve helium utilization efficiency, and thus reduce comprehensive gas costs. Compared to one-time emissions, the recycling mode is more in line with the current development direction of green manufacturing, energy conservation and consumption reduction, and stable supply.
Shenzhen Nanfang Lianchuang has long been dedicated to the research and development, manufacturing, and system integration of helium recovery and purification equipment. The integrated equipment for helium recovery and purification can adapt to different working conditions such as high-purity helium, low concentration helium containing mixed gas, and atmospheric pressure exhaust gas. The recovery rate can reach over 80%, and the highest purity after purification can reach 99.999%. It is suitable for semiconductor manufacturing, scientific research experiments, low-temperature engineering, high-end refrigeration and other scenarios.
Looking ahead, with the increasing uncertainty in the global helium supply chain, the demand from enterprises for 'stable gas consumption, cost reduction, and improved resource utilization' will continue to be released. Southern Lianchuang stated that it will continue to upgrade its technology around recycling efficiency, purification purity, intelligent control, and modular deployment capabilities, providing helium recycling solutions for more industry customers. The helium recovery and purification equipment is also expected to gradually become an important infrastructure for high-end manufacturing enterprises to ensure supply safety from an economical configuration.
