Our History
Rotoflow is both a pioneer and leader in turboexpander technology in natural gas applications. In 1958, Dr. Judson S. Swearingen, founder of the original Rotoflow Corporation, initiated the program for building and operating the world’s first hydrocarbon turboexpander. During this time period, Dr. Swearingen also worked with engineers from Air Products to develop Air Products’ first turboexpanders. Air Products has been a cryogenic turbomachinery expert for over 75 years, deploying over 1,600 expanders within its ASU and LNG plants worldwide.
