This established cooperation model has already been applied to the development and production of 3S Separator equipment, combining M-ost process integration with engineering and design by IBE Ltd. and equipment manufacturing by KOV or other closely related Partner. The 3S Technology can be supplied as a standalone modular separator or incorporated into complete process equipment and production skids for integration into new or existing gas-processing and gas-production facilities.
M-ost coordinates the technology application and project interface, bringing together specialist capabilities in process engineering, equipment manufacturing, testing, conformity assessment, integration and project execution.
One Integrated Project Delivery Model
The 3S project-delivery model combines (4) four complementary layers of expertise:
One technology. Multiple specialist capabilities. One coordinated project structure.
01 | M-ost Ltd (3S-MOST)
M-ost Ltd. | 3S Technology Provider & Process Integration Lead
Technology provider | Process integration | Project coordination
M-ost Ltd (3S-MOST) provides the patented 3S Supersonic Separation technology and coordinates its application within the customer’s process.
M-ost’s role includes, but not limited to:
3S technology application
Technology evaluation
Process studies
Thermodynamic and mass-balance calculations
3S process and P&ID inputs
3S Separator specifications
Equipment specifications
Procurement coordination
Production stewardship
Manufacturing supervision & stewardship
Technical coordination
Assembly and commissioning coordination
Overall 3S project interface
M-ost therefore acts as the technology and process-integration interface between the customer, engineering organization and manufacturing partners.
M-ost coordinates an established European engineering, manufacturing and technical-assurance network, combining its patented 3S technology with the specialist capabilities required to deliver project-ready gas-processing equipment and process packages.
IBE Ltd., Ljubljana, Slovenia, provides established engineering capabilities for the development and integration of 3S Technology into complete industrial process systems.
Certification and conformity-assessment coordination
IBE’s role is particularly important where the 3S Separator is developed into a complete process skid or integrated gas-processing installation, rather than being supplied as an isolated item of equipment.
IBE can develop the engineering documentation according to the applicable project standards and codes, including but not limited toEN and/or ASME requirements, depending on the customer’s specifications, project location and applicable regulatory framework:
Subject to the applicable project requirements, regulatory framework, design basis and the agreed scope of the respective engineering, manufacturing and conformity-assessment organizations.
03 | Slovenian Manufacturing Base
EU Manufacturing Partner | Equipment Manufacturing
Slovenian Manufacturing Base | Lean & Flexible Manufacturing | Made-to-Order Equipment & Skid Integration
M-ost (3S MOST) works with an established Slovenian manufacturing base providing flexible fabrication, machining, welding, equipment assembly and process-equipment integration capabilities for 3S Technology projects.
The manufacturing structure is intentionally Lean, responsive and project-oriented, making it particularly suitable for made-to-order 3S Technology / 3S Separator equipment, prototype and pre-series work, application-specific components and modular process systems.
Depending on the project requirements, available capabilities include:
Pressure equipment fabrication
Steel fabrication and welding
CNC and mechanical machining
Bespoke and made-to-order components
Mechanical assembly
Process-equipment fabrication
3S Separator manufacturing
Skid fabrication and assembly
Equipment integration
Workshop testing and inspection
Preparation for transportation, installation and commissioning
The manufacturing base can accommodate individual equipment items, small production runs and project-specific assemblies, allowing the manufacturing approach to be adapted to the technical requirements and quantities of each project.
This flexibility is particularly valuable for 3S projects, where equipment is frequently application-specific rather than mass-produced and may require adaptation to customer specifications, process conditions, local standards or project-specific engineering requirements.
3S Separator & applicable equipment can be engineered and manufactured according to the applicable project requirements and agreed design basis, including EN, ASME, GOST or other applicable standards and codes, where appropriate.
Institut za varilstvo Ltd. (Welding Institute),Slovenia, provides specialist capabilities in welding technology, materials and weld testing, non-destructive testing, certification and pressure-equipment conformity assessment.
Welding Institute operates accredited laboratories and certification activities covering areas including welding, NDT, welded products, welding procedures and pressure equipment. Its certification organization VARCert operates as an EU Notified Body for applicable pressure-equipment conformity-assessment activities.
Its laboratories provide destructive and non-destructive testing of materials, welds and permanent joints, including mechanical testing, metallographic examination, chemical analysis and NDT methods.
For applicable 3S projects, such independent technical capabilities can provide an additional layer of testing, inspection and conformity assessment within the overall project-delivery structure.
European | Slovenian Manufacturing & Technical Capability for 3S Projects
3S Technology projects require more than the supply of a 3S separator. Depending on the application, the project may require engineered pressure equipment, process skids, application-specific components, mechanical assembly, welding, machining, heat treatment, inspection and testing. M-ost coordinates established European manufacturing and technical partners to support the fabrication, integration and verification of 3S Separators and associated gas-processing equipment.
Manufacturing & Technical Capabilities
Manufacturing and technical capabilities supporting 3S Separators and associated process equipment.
M-ost (3S-MOST) works with an established Slovenian manufacturing network (closely related business partners) providing the machining, fabrication, welding, heat-treatment, testing and assembly capabilities required for 3S Separators and associated process equipment.

Heavy Handling Crane capacities up to 20 tonnes, supporting the manufacture, assembly and handling of large process equipment.
Manufacturing Certifications & Compliance
Manufacturing certifications and conformity requirements supporting the production and delivery of 3S Separators and associated process equipment.
Depending on the project, the relevant manufacturing partners may provide applicable quality, welding, structural and pressure-equipment certifications and conformity documentation, including ISO 9001, EN ISO 3834, EN 1090 and PED 2014/68/EUandapplicablepressure-equipment conformity requirements such as EAC / TR CU 032/2013.
These certifications and conformity documents relate to the respective manufacturing or equipment-producing entities and are not certifications of M-ost Ltd. Applicability depends on the equipment, project requirements, destination market and agreed conformity-assessment route.
Independent Testing & Quality Assurance
Independent testing, (Welding Institute) inspection and technical-assurance capabilities supporting the manufacture and delivery of 3S Separators and associated process equipment.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): VT, MT, PT, UT, RT and LT.
Material & Component Inspection: mechanical testing, weld inspection, thickness measurement, ferrite measurement and material verification.
Technical Measurements & Analysis: chemical analysis, electrical measurements and field inspection.
Pressure Equipment: inspection and testing of pressure equipment and industrial installations.
These capabilities provide independent technical verification at relevant stages of manufacturing, assembly, testing and project delivery.
