Nitrogen Use in Transmission Lines
Transmission lines can be vulnerable to corrosion when exposed to oxygen and moisture, the two main components that cause a corrosive reaction. Corrosion not only poses a problem for transmission lines, but also dangerous voltage arcs and copper oxidation can become issues if protective measures are not implemented. That’s why South-Tek Systems offers the N2-GEN TL Series – […]
Use of Nitrogen Generators at Power Plants
Power plants utilize nitrogen generators for various applications. In this discussion, we will explore some of the more common applications, along with the reasons why plant managers select nitrogen generators as their preferred N2 gas source. Power Plant Applications Nitrogen Purge for HRSG Wet and Dry Boiler Lay-Up – Corrosion poses a significant threat to the performance, […]
Nut packaging with a Nitrogen Generator
You might think using nitrogen to preserve food is a little…nutty. But many food and nut packaging manufacturers rely on this clean, inert gas to package, preserve, and store perishable food items. Over the years, more and more food industries have begun relying on nitrogen generation systems for their N2 gas needs. Why Use Nitrogen […]
Nitrogen Gas Sparging
As one of the most dominant elements in our universe, nitrogen is a versatile gas. Despite its extensive cosmic reach, nitrogen can be employed for many practical applications here on Earth. One such application is sparging, sometimes referred to as nitrogen gas sparging. Sparging with nitrogen gas is common in winemaking (See: Nitrogen Uses in the Wine Industry). […]
Nitrogen Helps Control Incubator Oxygen Levels
In IVF (in vitro fertilization), an incubator protects and cultures an embryo, ideally until it can be transplanted, resulting in pregnancy. The oxygen levels in the incubator are crucial. Maintaining a reduced oxygen level within the embryonic incubator is vital for preserving the embryo. To lower the oxygen concentration in the incubator, a steady stream […]
Nitrogen Supply for Universities and Research Labs
Nitrogen gas is one of the most abundant elements in the universe. It is estimated to rank seventh in total abundance within our galaxy and solar system, constituting approximately 80 percent of the Earth’s atmosphere. Due to its prevalence and favorable qualities, nitrogen is utilized for various tasks and is essential for many applications, including laboratory […]
N2 Gas Purge for Autoclaves, Ovens, and Aluminum Furnaces
Nitrogen gas has a wide range of uses in various industrial applications. One such application is the processing, curing, and treatment of resins. Resins are used in many materials, some of which are used in the aerospace industry, and they need to be carefully cured to prevent bubbles, deformities, and impurities. Nitrogen can be introduced during the […]
