On-Site Nitrogen Generation Systems | Membrane Nitrogen Generation

NCA Solutions for On-Site Nitrogen Generation

Numerous applications in Oil and Gas, Chemical and Petrochemical, Mining and other General Manufacturing industries use Nitrogen gas as a process gas or as an inert gas.

Some of these applications include:

Nitrogen Gas Injection into Oil and Gas wells during Underbalanced Drilling or in Production stages to enhance the well production performance
Ammonia and Fertilizer production facilities
Pneumatic Pressure Testing of piping and equipment and pipelines
Pipeline Pigging
Chemical Blanketing
Coal Mine Inertization
Packaging
Others

The required nitrogen should either be purchased in gaseous or liquid forms from suppliers or be generated on-site. When the nitrogen consumption is continuous or long-term, most companies find that generating their own nitrogen in-house is much more economic, safer and easier.

The air surrounding us is composed of approximately 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, and 1% other gases. Two separation techniques are normally used to separate the gases and deliver high purity nitrogen on-site, namely PSA and Membrane.

Unless extremely high purities of nitrogen (higher than 99.9%) are required for some critical applications which can be delivered by PSA units, Membrane Nitrogen Generation is normally the solution for most of on-site nitrogen needs, as they offer certain advantages in comparison.

NCA Membrane Nitrogen Generators provide purities of 95 to 99.9% by separating the individual air gases through a permeation process inside batches of tiny, hollow polymer fibers.

NCA Canada designs and manufactures Custom-Engineered Membrane Nitrogen Generation packages for its clients in different sectors who need to generate their nitrogen on-site.
