count on air products expertise…
we can help you optimize nitrogen usage and can provide an economical mode of supply based on your purity and flowrate needs.
overview
nitrogen can be used in a wide range of applications in all phases of metals production, including:
- flotation
- refining and stirring
- degassing
- die cooling
- molding and casting
- slag splashing
- bottom stirring
- inerting/shrouding
- blast furnace blowdown
- post treatment
to provide numerous benefits, such as:
- preventing oxidation of the melt/metal surface
- extending refractory life
- cooling
- desulfurization
- increasing productivity and yield
nitrogen supply options
cryoease® microbulk solutions
a convenient and cost-effective solution for larger operations. cryoease® tanks are available in a range of sizes. the cryoease® service simplifies your gas supply by eliminating the need to handle cylinders, stock taking and ordering.
bulk supply
delivered by truck and stored on your site either as a liquid in cryogenic tanks or as a gas in high-pressure tubes based on your volume, desired pressure, purity level, flow rate, and operating pattern.
apex temporary emergency gas services
short-term or emergency industrial gas supply for start-ups, peak demand periods, planned or unplanned maintenance activities, and plant or pipeline turnarounds.
prism® membranes
prism membrane separators generate gas onsite for applications like nitrogen generation, air dehydration, hydrogen recovery, biogas upgrading, and the generation of oxygen enriched air.
on-site nitrogen gas generation
