Find the Right Membrane Nitrogen Solution for Your Operation.

Which Membrane Nitrogen Generator Is Right for You?

Onsite nitrogen generation can significantly cut costs by reducing the need for delivered nitrogen, eliminating expenses related to transportation, storage, and cylinder rental. By producing nitrogen on demand, companies can reduce per-unit costs by up to 50-80% compared to gas cylinders, liquid dewars or bulk liquid nitrogen. This investment often pays for itself in as little as 8-18 months, making it a smart financial choice for businesses that require a steady nitrogen supply.

The Membrane Advantage

Simple, Maintenance-Free Operation
With no moving parts in the separation process, membrane technology offers exceptional reliability and virtually maintenance-free operation. Just maintain your air compressor and filtration system, and your nitrogen generator will deliver consistent performance year after year.
Compact, Space-Saving Design
Our membrane nitrogen generators feature a small footprint, making them easy to integrate into existing facilities with minimal space requirements. The modular design allows for installation in areas where space is at a premium.
Energy-Efficient Performance
Membrane systems require less energy than alternative nitrogen generation methods, reducing your operational costs and environmental impact. The efficient design minimizes pressure drop and optimizes nitrogen yield per unit of compressed air.
Adjustable Purity Levels
Easily adjust nitrogen purity from 95% to 99.9% to match your specific application requirements. This flexibility allows you to optimize both purity and flow rate for maximum operational efficiency.
Instant Start-Up
Unlike other technologies that require warm-up time, membrane systems provide nitrogen immediately upon startup. This feature ensures you have nitrogen available exactly when you need it, without delays.
Scalable Capacity
As your nitrogen needs grow, our modular membrane systems can be easily expanded to increase capacity. This scalability protects your initial investment while accommodating business growth.

Advanced PRISM® Technology

Our membrane nitrogen generators utilize industry-leading PRISM® hollow fiber technology, developed by Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. These advanced membranes selectively allow oxygen, water vapor, and other gases to permeate through the membrane walls while nitrogen flows through the center. This results in a continuous stream of high-purity nitrogen with exceptional efficiency and reliability.

FAQs

What is a membrane nitrogen generator?

A membrane nitrogen generator is a system that separates nitrogen from compressed air using semi-permeable membranes. This compact, efficient technology provides a continuous nitrogen supply at moderate purity levels, making it ideal for applications like food packaging, plastics, inerting and chemical processing.

How does a membrane nitrogen generator work?

A membrane nitrogen generator works by passing compressed air through a bundle of hollow, semi-permeable fibers that selectively allow oxygen, water vapor and other gases to diffuse out while nitrogen flows through the system. This process delivers nitrogen gas at specified purity levels in a reliable, continuous stream.

How efficient is a membrane nitrogen generator?

Membrane nitrogen generators are highly energy-efficient, as they don't require additional components like adsorbents or high-pressure cycles, unlike PSA systems. They operate continuously with minimal energy consumption, making them a cost-effective choice for applications with moderate purity requirements.

What purity level can a membrane nitrogen generator achieve?

Membrane nitrogen generators can typically achieve nitrogen purity levels of up to 99.9% with the advanced PRISM® technology used by PneuTech. This range is suitable for many applications, such as food storage and inerting processes, where ultra-high purity isn't essential.

What is the maximum flow rate for membrane N₂ generation?

Membrane technologies are generally used for low- to moderate-flow applications. The flow rate depends on the membrane technology used, the size of the membranes, and the number of membrane modules (more membrane surface for gas separation translates to higher flow rates). Flow rate is also dependent on the purity level required; adjusting the system for higher purity nitrogen will reduce the flow rate. Flow is measured in standard cubic feet per hour (SCFH). Our TN2 series is available in flow rates from 0.5 to 15,000 SCFH.
