High Purity Cryogenic Nitrogen Plant

High Purity Cryogenic Nitrogen Plant

The SINNA GAS High Purity Cryogenic Nitrogen Plant is a large-scale Air Separation Unit (ASU) designed for continuous production of high-purity nitrogen (N₂) from atmospheric air using proven cryogenic distillation technology.

Product Overview

 

The SINNA GAS High Purity Cryogenic Nitrogen Plant is a large-scale Air Separation Unit (ASU) designed for continuous production of high-purity nitrogen (N₂) from atmospheric air using proven cryogenic distillation technology.


This system is engineered for industries requiring large flow rate, high purity, and long-term operational stability, including steel manufacturing, petrochemical plants, electronics, energy systems, and chemical production facilities.


Unlike PSA nitrogen systems, cryogenic nitrogen plants utilize deep refrigeration (-196°C) and fractional distillation to achieve industrial-scale nitrogen production with significantly lower unit gas cost at high capacity levels.


SINNA GAS provides not only equipment manufacturing but also complete EPC engineering support, including system design, customization, installation guidance, commissioning, and long-term technical service.

 

Proven Cryogenic Air Separation Technology

 

The system is based on the globally established Hampson–Linde cryogenic air separation process, widely used in industrial gas production plants worldwide.


Process Description:
Air Compression & Purification
Ambient air is compressed and passed through purification units to remove moisture, CO₂, oil, and particulate impurities.


Cryogenic Cooling System
Air is cooled to cryogenic temperatures using heat exchangers and expansion turbines, approaching liquefaction conditions.


Liquefaction Process
At ultra-low temperatures, air becomes a liquid mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, and argon.


Fractional Distillation Separation
Components are separated based on boiling points:

  • Nitrogen: -196°C
  • Oxygen: -183°C
  • Argon: -186°C


Nitrogen Recovery
High-purity nitrogen is extracted and delivered as:

  • Gaseous Nitrogen (GAN)
  • Optional Liquid Nitrogen (LIN)

 

This mature industrial process ensures high reliability, stable output, and long lifecycle performance (15–25+ years).
