Compressors are mechanical devices that compress air or gas in a sealed unit and deliver it at the desired pressure levels. Compressors are categorized as air compressors and gas compressors. An air compressor is a device that compresses and pressurizes air and thereby, converts its potential energy into kinetic energy. A gas compressor is a device that reduces the volume of gas to increase its pressure following the principle of Boyle's law. An air compressor is a distinct type of gas compressor. Compressors are used in several applications across the oil and gas, petrochemicals and chemicals, power generation, desalination, water and wastewater treatment, mining and cement, and fertilizers industries. The major types of compressors considered in this report are centrifugal compressors and positive displacement compressors.
