Description
A variety of industrial gases — including nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, helium, argon and other noble gases — are either produced onsite or transported to chemical process industries (CPI) facilities, where they are stored and used onsite. Used in both gaseous and liquefied form, these gases can pose significant health and safety risks if not properly stored and handled by plant personnel.
This PDF provides a diverse collection of engineering articles related to the production and use of industrial gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen at chemical process industries (CPI) facilities. The articles profile sourcing options, including onsite generation of oxygen and nitrogen via cryogenic distillation, non-cryogenic processes based on adsorption or membrane separation, hydrogen production via reforming, and delivery via pipeline, tanker or cylinder. Guidance on handling cryogenic fluids, compressed gases, compressors, and tank blanketing/inerting applications is also included.
