What are the elements of a Liquid Nitrogen Plant?


A liquid nitrogen plant helps to produce the nitrogen from the air, which is thereafter stored in an internal reservoir that makes it easy to dispense the nitrogen with just a simple push of the button.  Below mentioned are the important elements of a nitrogen that helps it function and dispense liquid nitrogen for the use of the industries:
Air Compressor
An air compressor is required to provide air to the nitrogen generator. The compressed air can be supplied by customer, or it can be supplied by the manufacturer as a part of the integrated package.
Nitrogen Generator
This generator works on principle of separation of nitrogen from the air. Both PSA as well as Membrane Nitrogen separation technologies are available which can be chosen to suit the needs.
Cryorefrigerator
This element boasts a cold head which is mounted on the top of the Dewar, Helium compressor as well as a pair of stainless steel flexible helium lines.
Dewar Assembly
The gaseous Nitrogen produced in the generator is then transferred to a Dewar assembly. The Dewar assembly is designed for the storage as well as the extraction of LN2. It is made up of  stainless steel and is a vacuum jacketed container that stores the liquid nitrogen with the minimal losses.
Level Indicator/Switch

The level indicator/ switch is mounted on the Dewar that controls the operation of a liquid nitrogen plant. This level indicator/switch is preset get switch off the cryorefrigerator when the Dewar is full, and the it places plant onto standby mode.

Nitrogen Application in Cryotherapy

Image
Introduction Cryotherapy is a dermatological treatment used by dermatologists and skin care experts to treat surface skin lesions by freezing them with liquid nitrogen. Although other cryogens like carbon dioxide snow, Dimethyl ether and propane or DMEP were also used earlier, their use has now grown obsolete and liquid nitrogen is most commonly used. What Type Of Skin Lesions Are Treated With Cryotherapy? Lesions that are usually treated by cryotherapy include actinic keratosis, viral warts and sebborhoeic keratosis or senile warts. Specialist dermatologists sometimes also freeze small skin cancers such as superficial basal cell and in situ squamous cell carcinomas (intraepidermal carcinoma, Bowen disease), but this treatment is not always successful, so careful follow-up care is necessary.Freezing is one of the most suitable way of getting rid of many different kinds of surface skin lesions, asit is relatively inexpensive, safe, and reliable. However, it is also...

Applications of Nitrogen Generators

Nitrogen is a quite sought after gas as it has a wide variety of industrial uses. Most of these industries, need either nitrogen or liquid nitrogen generators on-site. Nitrogen generators these days are fitted with nitrogen separation membrane technology, which is economical, simpler and more dependable than the units without it. These are industries which need nitrogen, and thus nitrogen generators. 1.       The Food and Beverage Industry: Food and beverages begin to age and perish as soon as they are produced. This is due the activity of bacteria and similar micro-organisms or oxidation. A nitrogen flooded atmosphere solves both problems by stopping these organisms from growing and preventing oxidation. 2.       The Tyre Industry: Aircraft tyres are filled with nitrogen instead of air as it is drier than air. Most premier automobile companies fill the tyres of their cars and bikes with nitrogen, as it remains at a stable pr...

Technical facts about color masterbatches

Since their introduction in the 1960s the color masterbatches has steadily penetrated the traditional colored compound market. It is a solid concentrate of color and/or performance enhancing additives such as anti-static, UV stabiliser, metal deactivator, etc., that is added to a base polymer to impart these attributes. It is usually supplied in granular form, either as pellets similar in size to most polymers or as miniature pellets, known as micro granules. Alternatively, they can be delivered in 'rough cut' form - a mixture of small shreds and chunks. Two main types are offered - polymer specific and universal. Polymer specific masterbatch is produced using the same base polymer group. Universal they employs a carrier system that is capable of carrying the high quantities of additives necessary to deliver the end use properties required as well as affording the essential compatibility required across a broad range of polymers. Universal ones are normally readily ...
