The Sleeping Giant of the Manufacturing Industry

The world of nitrogen gas is one of sharp extremes, mystery, and big business.Get more news about nitrogen compressor exporter,you can vist our website!

Odorless, colorless and tasteless, nitrogen is inert, meaning it is chemically inactive, yet the importance of nitrogen is huge.

Though you may not realize it, nitrogen gas exists all around and has a big impact on many of our lives. This is particularly true in the manufacturing industry, where nitrogen is a large utility bill that most people are not aware of. This is the reason that we refer to nitrogen as a sleeping giant!

Of all the air in the Earth’s atmosphere, more than three-fourths (78 percent) is nitrogen; the rest is oxygen. But let’s leave the chemistry aside and distill this down to an everyday level.

You’re in your living room watching TV. You’re having a bottle of beer and a packaged bag of peanuts. There’s a good chance nitrogen has been involved in manufacturing the beer and peanuts.

Nitrogen removes oxygen from the empty bottles. Before capping the bottles, the gas chases out carbon dioxide. This all-important gas prevents wort, beer, and residual mash from oxidizing and contaminating the next batch of beer, and can be used to push beer from one tank to the other.
What are Nitrogen Generators?
A nitrogen generator is a piece of equipment often comparable to the size of a kitchen refrigerator. Keep in mind that nitrogen generators do not generate nitrogen! Rather, these machines filter out the other molecules in the air such as carbon dioxide, argon, dust particles, water, and oxygen, and then dries the nitrogen gas. At the end of this process, a more concentrated and purer form of nitrogen remains.
PSA (pressure swing adsorption) nitrogen generator. Using this type, air gets drawn in through an intake valve and travels to a carbon molecular sieve that has tiny pores across its surface. The sieve absorbs the smaller oxygen molecules while the nitrogen molecules, which are larger, move past this and are collected in the nitrogen receiver. Pressure and oxygen molecules are released. Simultaneously in another container, the cycle repeats itself to provide a gas flow into the nitrogen receiver. As a result, high nitrogen purity levels – up to 99.999 percent -- can be achieved.

Membrane nitrogen generator. With this type, pressured air flows from one end of the fiber membrane tube. Membranes house numerous hollow fibers that allow smaller oxygen molecules to escape through them when pressurized. Larger nitrogen molecules diffuse slower and remain in the fiber membranes collecting as natural gas. Fiber membranes function as a filter with no moving parts. Continual nitrogen generation is the result. This type of generator produces up to 99.5 percent pure nitrogen.
