Producing your own nitrogen is a winning proposition

Time to abandon the nitrogen bottle?

If your job requires nitrogen, there is a good chance you work with nitrogen bottles delivered by an industrial gas supplier. There is also a good chance you are looking for an alternative to these gas deliveries. For one, because the cost of purchased gas keeps surging. There is also the logistics of storing and handling all those nitrogen cylinders. Of course, there is the bigger question: is your supplier dependence for such a critical resource a smart choice for your business? After all, supply chain issues have been a constant in recent years. The solution is simple: produce your own nitrogen. All it takes to achieve supply independence and a lower cost of gas is a nitrogen generator connected to a compressor. 

What are the advantages of on-site nitrogen generation?

Having an on-site nitrogen generator can avoid production downtime, eliminate logistical hassles, and save you money:

No more nitrogen bottles?

So should you say goodbye to the nitrogen bottle? Not necessarily. The issue is the high cost (in many respects) of purchased nitrogen, not the gas cylinders themselves. In fact, you can choose to add a gas bottle rack to your on-site nitrogen generation system. Filling your own nitrogen bottles allows you to manage sudden peaks in demand. You can also use them as back-up storage.
