Nitrogen production from air by membrane gas separation processes is a mature technology which is applied in numerous industrial sectors (chemical, food, aeronautics, space..). ... membrane separation characteristics are fixed (i.e. membrane oxygen and nitrogen permeance), and the optimal process design and operating …
Nitrogen and oxygen production. Oxygen and nitrogen represent main parts of the air. All N2 and O2 which are commercially available are produced form of the air. Nitrogen is colourless, odourless and tasteless gas. Atoms of the nitrogen have very strong bond which makes nitrogen very stable so it has no need to enter in chemical reactions.
Our PSA plants can produce nitrogen purities of all levels, with oxygen content ranging from a few percent down to the ppmv level. The nitrogen gas is normally provided at pressures between 4 bar (g) and 9 bar (g) (between 60 psig and 130 psig). A downstream nitrogen compressor can be used if higher pressures are required. Nitrogen PSA plants ...
Presents a multidisciplinary analysis of the integration among reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species (RSS). Since plants are the main source of our food, the improvement of their productivity is the most important task for plant biologists. In this book, leading experts accumulate the recent …

Nitrogen (N 2) makes up 78% of ambient air (20.95% of air is oxygen).N 2 is an inert (non-flammable) gas used in industrial plants to prevent undesirable chemical reactions from occurring. Nitrogen is the most common inert gas used in the chemical process industries, due to its high natural abundance and low relative cost.
It is shown that after oxygen depletion, Nitrosopumilus maritimus produces dinitrogen and oxygen, which is used for ammonia oxidation, the pathway is not completely resolved but likely has nitric oxide and nitrous oxide as key intermediates. Description Consuming oxygen, but making it too For marine microbes, there are myriad biological …
Nowadays, nitrogen is mainly produced from air by cryogenic separation, pressure-swing adsorption (PSA) and polymeric membrane technology. In this paper, we report a perovskite membrane …
The "fire air" was, of course, oxygen and the "foul air" nitrogen. At about the same time, nitrogen also was recognized by a Scottish botanist, Daniel Rutherford ... Commercial production of nitrogen is largely by fractional distillation of liquefied air. The boiling temperature of nitrogen is −195.8 °C (−320.4 °F), about 13 °C ...
Compared with current conventional technologies, oxygen/nitrogen (O 2 /N 2 ) separation using membrane offers numerous advantages, especially in terms of energy consumption, footprint, and capital cost. However, low product purity still becomes the major challenge for commercialization of membrane-based technologies. Therefore, numerous studies on …
PSA stands for pressure swing adsorption. It is a technology that can be used to generate nitrogen or oxygen for professional purposes. First, tank A is in the adsorption phase while tank B regenerates. In the second stage both vessels equalize pressure to prepare for the switch. After the switch, tank A starts regenerating while tank B ...
Bacteria play a key role in the nitrogen cycle. Nitrogen enters the living world by way of bacteria and other single-celled prokaryotes, which convert atmospheric nitrogen— N 2 —into …

Abstract. In recent years, the market demand for fresh-cut flowers has continued to expand. In order to adjust the balanced supply of cut flowers in the off-season and improve the ornamental value of cut flowers, in addition to efforts in variety selection and cultivation management, the storage and preservation of cut flowers has become an important link …

If argon were collected and separated from the oxygen product, an oxygen purity of less than 95% by volume would result. On the other hand, if argon were collected with the nitrogen product, the purity of nitrogen would not exceed 98.7% by volume. Both oxygen and nitrogen must be greater than 99.9% pure to sell, so the elimination of argon is ...

Nitrogen Oxides. Nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) are two gases whose molecules are made of nitrogen and oxygen atoms. These nitrogen oxides contribute to the problem of air pollution, playing roles in the formation of both smog and acid rain. They are released into Earth's atmosphere by both natural and human-generated sources.
