How Nitrogen Generators Can Save You Money
For many businesses that require nitrogen, the go-to solution is to rent cylinders because it’s fast and reasonably reliable. However, these tanks usually never get emptied and you are wasting as much as 20% of unused nitrogen remaining inside — representing waste losses in gas that was paid for but never used. Cylinders must also be transported within your facility, which can lead to workplace accidents and an increase in workers compensation claims.
Unlike nitrogen cylinders, on-site nitrogen generators provide a constant supply of nitrogen 24/7 directly on your property, you won’t have to worry about the risks associated with transportation. Therefore, while there is an initial investment to purchase a nitrogen generator, however it could save you money on the long run and a payback in less than a year
On-site oxygen generators
Like nitrogen, oxygen (process gas) is vital to many industries, as is the need for oxygen in many processes in industrial and medical applications. Atlas Copco's OGP series of oxygen generators, equipped with Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology, is an economical way to produce your own oxygen. Our PSA technology isolates oxygen molecules from compressed air. Oxygen generation requires only a source of dry compressed air to produce 90-95% pure oxygen.
How to generate your own nitrogen | oxygen?
There are two main methods for removing the extra molecules from the air. One of these is pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology, which filters out unwanted (i.e. non-nitrogen) molecules.
How it works is simple: when the air is drawn through the intake valve, it is sent through a carbon molecular sieve (CMS). The CMS has tiny pores across its surface that are the perfect size for oxygen molecules. Because nitrogen molecules are larger than oxygen molecules, they do not adsorb to the material and pass on undeterred through the CMS.
Similar to some desiccant dryers, PSA nitrogen generators have two chambers: one with fresh CMS for the current adsorption process, and another that swings to low pressure to desorb oxygen from saturated CMS. PSA nitrogen generation can produce up to 99.999 percent pure nitrogen.
The second key method to “generate” nitrogen is membrane nitrogen generation. The membranes are a bundle of small, hollow polymer fibers with small pores across the surface. Because oxygen is smaller than nitrogen, it preferentially passes through these pores, eventually leaving only nitrogen. This process is called permeation. Membrane technology can produce up to 99.5 percent pure nitrogen.
