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 […]
Optics Purge with Nitrogen
Optical instruments rely on nitrogen for a process known as “purging, ” referred to as optics purge. This process ensures that optical lenses remain fog-proof and water-proof. Purging with N2 gas can be applied to a variety of optical instruments, including night vision goggles, binoculars, cameras, microscopes, telescopes, and more. Many products that rely on nitrogen gas […]
Nitrogen Gas Use in the Aerospace Industry
In the aerospace industry, nitrogen gas is used to pressurize certain components of industrial autoclaves. Because nitrogen is an inert gas that prevents combustion, it is an ideal choice for systems operating at high temperatures or high pressure. See: Nitrogen Gas and Aerospace Manufacturing Autoclaves apply heat and pressure to workloads placed inside them. There are […]
Nitrogen for Power Plants
The Threat of Corrosion to Power Plant EquipmentAs we all know, corrosion shortens the life of power plant process equipment. Protecting boiler tubes, condensers, and wet parts within small industrial boilers, HRSG combined cycle power plants, and large gas, oil, and coal-fired power plants from corrosion is critical during short-term layups and long-term plant outages. […]
Bottling with N2 Gas
Bottling provides various storage solutions within the food and beverage industry. Many modern products, from bottled beverages to medicines and cleaning products, are packaged and stored in bottles. To prevent the contents inside the bottle from spoiling, manufacturers often use nitrogen gas to displace oxygen and moisture. The most efficient method for this is a […]
Maintaining Clean, Dry Metal Parts using Nitrogen Gas
Maintaining a clean, dry environment is crucial in the metals manufacturing industry. Moisture can lead to rust, oxidation, or corrosion, all of which can damage metal parts and diminish the quality of metal products. The most effective way to mitigate moisture risk is by applying nitrogen gas. When manufactured, metal parts are often covered with […]
Nitrogen Gas for the Food Packaging Industry
Nitrogen can be utilized for various processes in the food packaging industry. It is a safe, inert gas, and with a nitrogen generation system, it can be produced from the surrounding air, eliminating the need for your facility to manage costly, high-pressure cylinders. Here’s a look at some of the many ways the food packaging […]
Nitrogen Tank Blanketing System
Tank blanketing is a process used by various industries to prevent air, moisture, and other contaminants from entering a storage container. It involves introducing an inert gas into the container, which displaces oxygen and thereby reduces or eliminates the risk of moisture condensation and other elements that could compromise the quality of the product. Benefits […]
