The air we breathe is about 78% nitrogen, but nitrogen at a higher level of purity has a wide variety of practical applications across many industries. Companies that use nitrogen can benefit from generating what they need in-house. This enhances production flexibility by ensuring that they have the nitrogen they need, at the level of purity they need, when they need it. Generating nitrogen in-house also removes the worry of running out because there is no third-party supplier. This eliminates constant order processing, refills and delivery costs, and frees up space otherwise needed to store nitrogen bottles (both full and empty). Membrane technology is simple and efficient, with compact, all-in-one units that require little maintenance and have zero operational costs. It’s ideal for applications where the required flow of nitrogen is relatively low and purity levels do not exceed 99%. Membrane technology has a lower initial investment than high flow/high purity technologies such as Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA).
