[Suzhou XITE Gas] How does cryogenic nitrogen equipment work?

The work of cryogenic nitrogen generators - first of all you should understand the production process of nitrogen generators with cryogenic technology before buying equipment machinery. Compared to non-cryogenic processes (PSA, VPSA), cryogenic distillation technology is more efficient and produces nitrogen with higher purity. It is used on a large scale to preserve food, biological specimens (semen, blood), remove skin warts, etc. With cryogenic equipment, you can increase the productivity of your business and be cost effective. The gas equipment has a pressure range of 2-5 bar and produces nitrogen with a purity of 99.99%. With the installation of our machines, you will recover the cost of the cryogenic equipment within two years.

The cryogenic nitrogen plant is an industrial system that produces nitrogen by liquefying the atmosphere in an air separation unit (ASU). Nitrogen is one of the most important industrial gases, accounting for approximately 78% of the earth's atmosphere by mass. In fact, it is known as a specialized industrial gas due to most of its industrial applications. This gas is known for its inertness, which is why it is used in manufacturing operations. It is used in manufacturing electronics, brewing beer and food packaging. There are many other important applications for inert gases. Industries meet their nitrogen needs by ordering nitrogen cylinders or installing liquid nitrogen plants on site.

How does a liquid nitrogen plant work?

More and more industries and businesses are now choosing to install cryogenic nitrogen plants because it is efficient, economical and provides a ready supply of inert gas. Ordering nitrogen cylinders is fraught with a lot of uncertainty due to supply chain issues. In addition, the use of inert gas via cylinders is expensive. Installing your liquid nitrogen equipment will reduce costs while ensuring a constant supply of inert gas. Our equipment machinery offers an impressive return on investment (ROI). The equipment is expected to break even within two years, which is very impressive. Producing your own nitrogen has many other benefits, such as you will be able to use all the nitrogen you produce, unlike cylinders where about 10% of the nitrogen is not used.

Nitrogen is produced in a cryogenic nitrogen generator by extracting air from the atmosphere. As the atmospheric air is drawn into the air separation unit (ASU), it is compressed in the compressor. It is then transferred to a purification system where impurities such as hydrocarbons, moisture and carbon dioxide are avoided. Here, the air is directed to a heat exchanger where it is liquefied at low temperatures. At this stage, the air is placed in a high-pressure distillation column where the nitrogen is physically separated from oxygen and other gases. The nitrogen thus formed is collected and placed in a low-pressure distillation column where it is distilled until it meets commercial specifications.


Advantages of owning a field nitrogen generator (nitrogen generator):

Before using the nitrogen generation system on site, many enterprises in the industry have no choice but to buy nitrogen elsewhere. However, the use of on-site nitrogen generator can eliminate all the troubles related to bulk purchase of nitrogen. Our nitrogen generator is an option with the greatest benefit: the average cost of producing nitrogen by ourselves is one-third to one-half lower than the relevant cost of purchasing nitrogen. Using the on-site nitrogen generator system, there is no need to pay the freight when purchasing nitrogen. Our nitrogen generator system usually allows you to recover the cost within 18 months.

In addition to economy, the nitrogen generator system of the on-site nitrogen generator also provides:

Reliability - the nitrogen generator system, that is, the on-site nitrogen generator system, uses the surrounding air to generate nitrogen. Therefore, our customers never have to worry about the shortage of nitrogen. Reduce stress - improve safety through storage. Simple - we make it easy for people without relevant equipment experience. The visual touch screen control can control the stability of gas purity. At the same time, it can operate self diagnosis, visual operation diagram and maintenance plan reminder on the screen. Flexibility - our equipment is small and can be transported under various conditions, so as long as there is air and electricity, the equipment can operate stably anywhere. Fully automatic - once a downstream request is detected, production begins.

Why use XITE nitrogen generator?   Our nitrogen generator system provides reliable on-site nitrogen supply for various industries, which is famous in China and Southeast Asia. Our on-site nitrogen system can produce nitrogen with purity up to 99.999%. For our nitrogen generator, it can meet the nitrogen production in any place and any complex environment.
