Product Description :
Capacity Range : 8m3/hr, 16m3/hr and 24m3/hr
We are manufacturers of nitrous oxide plants and gas processing plants. Our nitrous oxide plants are very safe and economical plants with an efficient generation system which reduces power consumption and adds on to safety. A storage battery assembly for separation of nitrogen is another safety feature with the universal plant. the gas manufactured conforms to pharmacopia, us & european standards and is stored in liquid state which can be directly filled into cylinders.
Process Description
Nitrous Oxide is produced by heating Ammonium Nitrate to a temperature of 250 Deg.C. Ammonium Nitrate is decomposed in the process to give a mixture of Nitrous Oxide & super heated steam. At the same time impurities are produced including Ammonium Nitrate fumes, Nitrogen & other oxides of Nitrogen. The steam & impurities are removed by scrubbing with water, caustic soda and sulphuric acid in sequence Nitrogen present in traces is removed by bleeding from the top of storage vessels where Nitrous Oxide is stored, after compression by a compressor.
Production
It is produced by heating Ammonium Nitrate to a temperature of approximately 250 C. Heating could be either electrically or by gas. It is then purified in a series of towers before collecting in a gas holder.
Gas is then Compressed by a water lubricated compressor, dried and liquefied. Liquid Nitrous oxide is stored in storage vessels where Nitrogen, if present, is removed. Pure liquid Nitrogen oxide is then filled into cylinders by weight.
Uses
Nitrous oxide gas is mainly used for anesthetic purposes. It is administered with oxygen. It is also used as carrier gas in laboratory Instruments. It also finds application, as a propellant in aerosols and food stuff.
