Nitrogen Generator Glasgow
On-Site Nitrogen Generation Glasgow
On-site nitrogen generation is both efficient and cost-effective, enabling businesses to cut costs compared to bottled deliveries by generating nitrogen to meet their precise operational demands.
Design Air (Scotland) has been serving businesses in Glasgow and across central Scotland for over 20 years, providing the full range of compressed air services, including nitrogen generation.
What Is On-Site Nitrogen Generation?
Nitrogen is an incredibly plentiful gas: it’s about 78% of the earth’s atmosphere. Nitrogen generators take compressed air from your compressor, then separate the nitrogen using membranes or pressure swing adsorption techniques.
Using your own generator allows you to provide the volume and specification of nitrogen your processes need, as well as exactly when and where they need it.
What Standards Can On-Site Generators Meet?
On-site generation can provide the highest purities of nitrogen. The Atlas Copco Range of PSA Generators, for example, can generate nitrogen that is more than 99.999% pure. On-site generation is an option even for the most demanding uses.
A significant benefit of having your own generator is that you can set the precise specifications you need. It saves you from having to buy over-specified nitrogen.
What Benefits Does On-Site Gas Generation Bring?
If you use nitrogen in your processes, then on-site generation is a sensible choice:
- Convenience. You control your nitrogen supply, and don’t need to plan around cylinder delivery lead times and timetables.
- Safety. Nitrogen bottles present a safety risk, requiring secure storage and careful handling as they are moved around. Using a nitrogen generator avoids using heavy bottles.
- A cleaner environment. You eliminate the pollution and emissions that delivering heavy bottles creates. A real benefit in urban areas like Glasgow, where traffic can be heavy.
- Control. You can set the specifications your processes need, minimising waste and costs while having the assurance that the nitrogen you are using meets the standards you set.
- Cost. On-site nitrogen generation is far cheaper than bottled deliveries. Using a nitrogen generator can be as little as half the cost of equivalent bottled deliveries, and some users find the savings cover the cost of the investment in as little as six months.
What Businesses Can Generate Nitrogen?
Quite simply, if you need nitrogen in your processes, you can generate nitrogen on-site. As a well-established technology, modern generators are compact and efficient.
They are also safe; the by-products are oxygen and water, meaning a nitrogen gas generator can be operated even in the middle of a city like Glasgow.
