Various Nitrogen Gas Uses for Industrial Purposes

Nitrogen is an inert gas that comprises 78% of the Earth’s atmosphere. Pure nitrogen gas has a huge demand in different industrial applications, mainly due to its inert properties. However, it is not available in a pure state, as nitrogen is mixed with 21% oxygen and small amounts of other gases. So, MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd has introduced nitrogen generators that can fulfill all types of nitrogen gas uses. The simplicity and high production capacity of this nitrogen plant can meet the requirements of all corporate clients of this company.

Prominent industries where pure nitrogen gas is needed

Nitrogen gas offers an inert atmosphere to stop unwanted chemical reactions of various materials that are used in industrial production. The nitrogen gas uses also include storage of raw and end products, preventing spoilage of those things.

▪ Food and beverage is the prime industry that needs nitrogen gas for the safe packaging of all final products. Pure nitrogen gas prevents undesired oxidation of food materials and helps in maintaining the freshness of those products for a longer period.

▪ A fire extinguisher is another product where nitrogen gas is used to cut off the oxygen supply from a fire breakout. Thus, fire can be put off easily due to the inert atmosphere of nitrogen. However, the nitrogen level should be appropriate to enable easy breathing of people present there.

▪ Light bulb production is another important industrial application where pure nitrogen gas is an essential component. The heated tungsten filament of a bulb prevents combustion due to the presence of nitrogen gas that replaces oxygen-filled air.

▪ Several chemical industries that manufacture fertilizers, dyes, polyesters, nitric acid, and explosive materials need pure nitrogen for their production.

▪ Many Chemical Industries use Nitrogen gas for Purging and Blanketing of Chemical Tanks and reactors.

▪ Pharma Industries use Nitrogen gas for Purging of reactors / tanks and in packaging of medicines and APIs.

▪ The tire industry also needs dry nitrogen gas, which is filled inside the rubber tires used in aircraft and expensive racing cars. Nitrogen is not combustible like oxygen, for which the longevity of tires can be guaranteed even when tires are heated up due to friction with road surfaces.
