NITROGEN GENERATION • INDUSTRIAL GAS SUPPLY
On-Site Nitrogen Generator Systems
Generate nitrogen where you use it. Complete on-site systems designed around your required purity, flow and delivery pressure, with compressed air supply, treatment, storage and ongoing support.
- PSA & membrane technologies
- Purity, flow & pressure matched
- Complete system integration
THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT FOR YOUR APPLICATION
Take control of your nitrogen supply
On-site generation separates nitrogen from compressed air and can reduce reliance on cylinders or delivered gas. The business case depends on how much gas you use, its required quality and the cost of running the complete system.
WMC assesses the generator alongside the compressor, air treatment, storage and controls. Applications include laser cutting, packaging, blanketing and electronics, each with its own gas specification. We can agree a service plan for the nitrogen and supporting air equipment.
PRODUCTS & TECHNOLOGY
Compare nitrogen generation options
PSA nitrogen generation
Pressure swing adsorption
PSA uses carbon molecular sieve media to separate gases from compressed air. It is a common choice for higher-purity requirements. nano GEN2 i4.0 is one modular PSA option, with the selected flow rated at the required purity.
Membrane nitrogen generation
Continuous separation
Membrane systems separate gases using selectively permeable fibres. Their suitability depends on required purity, flow and feed-air conditions. They can be appropriate for duties where the required nitrogen specification suits this technology.
Complete generation packages
Air supply to point of use
A working installation can include compressor, dryer, filtration, air and nitrogen receivers, monitoring and controls. High-pressure applications may also require a booster and suitable high-pressure storage.
SPECIFY IT CORRECTLY
Specify purity, flow and pressure together
A generator’s output changes with the required purity and feed-air conditions. A flow figure without its purity and reference conditions is not enough to size the plant. We use the process equipment specification and peak consumption rather than selecting from average gas use alone.
For the cost comparison, we include compressor power, treatment, servicing and installation alongside your existing gas costs. Storage, backup arrangements and commissioning checks are agreed around production needs. Savings and payback are calculated for your site.
What we need for a nitrogen proposal
- Process, specified nitrogen purity and residual oxygen limit
- Average and peak flow, delivery pressure and operating hours
- Current cylinder, bundle or bulk supply consumption and costs
- Available compressed air and its quality specification
- Space, utilities, storage, backup and expansion requirements
WMC confirms the selected equipment, installation scope, maintenance requirements and applicable warranty terms in your quotation.
PRACTICAL ANSWERS
Your questions answered
Can my existing compressor feed the generator?
Possibly. We check spare capacity, pressure, feed-air quality and the generator’s air consumption at your required purity.
Does higher purity affect the available nitrogen flow?
Yes. Capacity must be selected at the required purity, pressure and stated operating conditions.
Can you supply nitrogen for laser cutting?
We can assess the cutting machine’s gas specification, peak flow and delivery pressure, including booster and storage requirements where needed.
Will I still need backup gas?
That depends on the required resilience and storage. We assess backup alongside planned maintenance, production demand and the consequences of an interruption.
