On-site nitrogen generation: the secret weapon to ensure quality and safety
Get the nitrogen you need, when and where you need it
Did you know that 78% of the air you breathe is nitrogen? This colorless, odorless gas is all around us and, as you probably know, plays a crucial role in many of your daily operations. Its inert nature prevents it from reacting with other elements, making it an invaluable tool across various industries. Whether you're working in food packaging or the oil & gas industry, nitrogen helps prevent oxidation, ensuring high-quality standards and above all safety.
What is nitrogen?
Let’s start with the basics. Nitrogen is an inert gas that is odorless, colorless, and does not sustain life. However, it is important for plant growth and is a key additive in fertilizers. Its usage ranges far beyond your garden. Nitrogen usually appears in either liquid or gas form (although it is possible to attain solid nitrogen as well). Liquid nitrogen is used as a refrigerant, which is able to rapidly freeze foods and subjects in medical research, as well as reproductive technology.
Nitrogen is widely used, mainly due to the fact that it does not react when exposed to other gas, unlike oxygen, which is very reactive. Due to its chemical composition, nitrogen atoms need more energy to be broken and react with other substances. Oxygen molecules on the other hand are easier to break apart, therefore, making the gas much more reactive. Nitrogen gas is the opposite, providing unreactive environments where needed. The lack of reactivity of nitrogen is its biggest quality.
Why rely on temporary on-site nitrogen generators?
Nitrogen is a gas commonly used for many industrial and offshore applications, such as inerting, blanketing, or drying. However, its production can be challenging and investing in specialized equipment pricey. Purchasing nitrogen cylinders, in turn, requires a lot of space and logistics. That's why renting a nitrogen generator with service is your ideal solution.
Depending on your specific processes, we offer a selection of membrane generators. Membrane technology is based on separating oxygen and other gases from our ambient air, leaving only nitrogen. We guarantee a nitrogen purity of +99%. Our NGM generators further achieve maximum pressure up to 35 bar, and a nitrogen output of 3000 cfm.
Whether short- or long-term, planned or unplanned, you can rely on a temporary nitrogen solution tailored to your needs.
Which applications benefit from temporary on-site nitrogen?
Temporary on-site nitrogen is a versatile gas that offers numerous benefits across various industries. Its inert properties make it an ideal choice for applications requiring a controlled atmosphere, preventing oxidation, spoilage, and safety hazards. A few examples are:
- Oil and gas: Ensure safe and efficient operations with nitrogen purging, pressure maintenance, and explosion prevention.
- Food and beverage: Extend the shelf life of your products by reducing oxygen levels in packaging, preserving freshness and quality.
- Electronics manufacturing: Achieve superior product quality with a controlled nitrogen atmosphere for soldering and other critical processes.
- Chemical processing: Create an inert environment to prevent unwanted chemical reactions and ensure safety in your operations.
- Pharmaceuticals: Maintain product integrity and extend shelf life with nitrogen in packaging and storage.
