Nitrogen  [ Return towards  Gas  ]

Nitrogen is typically used for blanketing storage tanks.

During shutdown periods, compressors, pipelines and reactors may be inerted to prevent equipment degradation. Nitrogen can also be used for pressure transfer of products between storage vessels, units or into shipping (transport) vessels.

Nitrogen supply can be achieved in different modes, including cylinders, bulk liquid, onsite membrane units (FLOXAL™), onsite cryogenic assisted units (FLOXAL™, APSA™), and via pipeline supply.
