Industrial gas: acetylene
Messer Group GmbH
Acetylene and other Fuel Gases
Acetylene is a high-performance fuel gas that is traditionally produced through the reaction of calcium carbide with water. Today, Messer obtains most of its acetylene in Europe from petrochemical processes.
Acetylene has a huge range of applications: whether it be oxyfuel technology, welding, cutting, flame cleaning, flame spraying, flame straightening or gouging – the gas with the chemical formula C2H2 is ideal for all these areas.
