Industrial Nitrogen Generator Solutions

Companies operating in the highly competitive food and beverages industry know oxygen exposure can have a massive effect on product quality, as well as how long perishable foods remain stable for consumption.

Oxidation causes spoilage and deterioration of nutritional properties, observed through changes in colour, smell, taste and texture.

Nitrogen gas is the most cost effective industry solution. Clean, dry & inert, it is used for form filling, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) & inert storage, helping to:

• Extend shelf-life (in many cases by several months)
• Minimize the need for chemical preservatives
• Increase the reach of product distribution
• Prevent packaging collapse and less material to be used

Companies in the highly competitive metal fabrication industry know that moisture & oxygen contamination can have significant bearing on the quality or structural integrity of end products.

Oxygen exposure can cause a number of issues such as discoloration, formation of oxide layers over cuts and between joints, effecting the quality of finish & material wetting.

Nitrogen gas is the most cost effective industry solution. Clean, dry & inert, it is used as an assist, purge & shielding gas, helping to:

• Deliver faster, better quality cuts and stronger weld joints
• Blow away excess molten metal waste from cut edges
• Cool materials to minimize discoloration & oxide formation

Pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies operate in very precise environments. The sensitive nature of compounds and organisms means there are several product quality and safety considerations.

Product exposure to moisture & oxygen can cause contamination, altering product composition & rendering them useless. Furthermore, excess oxygen concentration during processing can often lead to explosive reactions.

Nitrogen is the most cost effective industry solution. Clean, dry & inert, it is used to remove contaminants at numerous stages of the manufacturing process, helping to:

• Sparge out potentially harmful chemical compounds
• Blanket storage tanks to prevent product spoiling
• Inert processing chambers to prevent combustion (e.g. during milling or spray
  drying)
• Sterilize packaging of air or moisture prior to filling

Companies operating in the highly competitive wine industry, know that oxygen contamination & exposure can have significant effects on product quality, as well as stability and suitability for consumption.

Oxidation of wine leads to spoiling and deterioration, observed through changes in smell, taste, texture and manifests as a rancid, vinegary taste.

Nitrogen gas is the most cost effective industry solution. Clean, dry & inert, it is used at numerous stages of the wine making process to prevent bacterial growth and ensure product quality, helping to:

• Sparge out dissolved contaminants (e.g. O2 or CO2)
• Blanket storage tanks to prevent spoiling
• Purge air and moisture from bottles prior to filling

Electronics & nanotechnology companies are familiar with the impact of oxygen contamination on efficiency and product quality.

During assembly, atmospheric air creates thin oxide layers over and between connections, leading to several problems downstream, such as product defects that require additional reworking. Furthermore, condensation creates moisture in storage environments, which causes corrosion
and product degradation.

Nitrogen gas is the most cost effective industry solution. Dry, inert & non-conductive, it is used in storage and for reflow, selective or wave soldering surface-mount technology to printed circuit boards (PCBs), helping to:

• Increase soldering joint strength &reduce bridging/wetting defects
• Increase first-pass yields, ensuring minimal heat exposure
• Reduce requirement for reworking & flux residue cleaning
