Medical nitrogen gas generator N2X

Traditionally, nitrogen has been produced by cryogenic distillation and commercialized in the form of bulk liquid and high pressure compressed gas cylinders. Nowadays, uncontrollable vendor price increases, long term contracts, rental fees, etc. have motivated the development of onsite generation of nitrogen using alternative technologies like pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and membrane systems. Depending on required flow and purity, both can be far more cost-effective than bulk or high pressure cylinder sources. Benefits No need for vendors (you are your own supplier) Adjustable flow and purity (from 95% to 99.999%) Lower production and maintenance costs Continuous operation (you only produce what you consume) Modular and compact (easy to gradually increase capacity as required) Less energy intensive than cryogenic distillation (environmentally friendly) Reliable and safe operation Eliminates transport cost Applications Blanketing - chemical, food, pharmaceutical, glass and metallurgical industries Modified Atmosphere Packing (MAP) – food & beverage industries Metal Processing & Electronics – protection against the formation of oxides Continuous operation (you only produce what you consume) Oil & Gas Extraction – for gas lift and blanketing Medical – ie pneumatic pressure for instrumentation, powering medical devices
