Results for tag: "Non Cryogenic Air Separation Plants"

In the realm of air purification, non-cryogenic air separation plants represent a category of technology used to produce high-purity industrial gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, and argon through methods other than cryogenic distillation. These plants operate on the principle of selective permeation through membranes, pressure swing adsorption (PSA), or vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA), differing from the conventional cryogenic process which relies on the liquefaction of air at very low temperatures to separate its components. Non-cryogenic plants offer advantages of lower capital and operating expenses, rapid start-up and shutdown capabilities, and a compact footprint, making them well-suited for on-site applications where space constraints or intermittent usage might be a concern. They are often employed in sectors such as healthcare for medical-grade oxygen, in various manufacturing processes where inert atmospheres are necessary, in the food and beverage industry for product preservation, and in water treatment facilities. Key players in the non-cryogenic air separation plant market include Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., Linde plc, Parker Hannifin Corporation, Praxair Technology, Inc., and Atlas Copco. These companies provide a range of efficient, on-demand gas generation systems tailored for diverse industrial requirements, with an emphasis on reliability, safety, and environmental sustainability.
