How N2 Generators Can Improve Your Recycling Efficiency and Reduce Costs

Does your plastics recycling business rely on nitrogen cylinders for production and manufacturing? Demand for nitrogen can be difficult to manage, especially when you’re getting your nitrogen supply from cylinder delivery.

Not only are nitrogen cylinders inefficient, but they’re also expensive. Fortunately, there’s a way to cut finances and make your business more eco-friendly at the same time. By getting your nitrogen supply from nitrogen generators for plastics, your business will use less nitrogen, reduce its carbon footprint, and reduce overall business costs. Here’s how our nitrogen generators can save your business money and make production more efficient.

Nitrogen Generators for Recycled Plastics Help Recycling Plants Operate More Efficiently

Nitrogen is an essential part of recycling plastics. Many businesses that operate plastics recycling plants use nitrogen cylinders to maintain their operations. Unfortunately, using these cylinders can lead to nitrogen waste, with more nitrogen being used than necessary. Using a nitrogen generator for plastics leads to the production of pure nitrogen and a reduction in nitrogen waste, thus allowing recycling plants to operate more efficiently.

Nitrogen Gas Generators Help Businesses Maintain Sustainable Operations

For businesses that require a regular supply of nitrogen, nitrogen cylinders can be a constant demand. Nitrogen cylinder delivery may be required, weekly, daily or even multiple times per day, depending on the number of cylinders needed, where they’re being delivered from, how much the business can purchase at a time and how much the business can store at once.

If trucks show up on a daily or even hourly basis, this makes the business’s carbon footprint much larger than otherwise necessary. More deliveries via trucks mean more emissions required to sustain business and thus a larger carbon footprint overall.

Plastics recycling plants specifically have an investment in maintaining sustainable operations –  after all, they’re involved in the recycling industry and eco-friendly practices are their business.

Nitrogen generators for recycling plastics remain on-site at all times, never requiring a fresh delivery by truck. All the business needs is a source of compressed air to create nitrogen gas. Once the air is fed into the generator, nitrogen is pushed into a storage tank while oxygen and other molecules are vented out.

Nitrogen Gas Generators Help Businesses Reduce Costs

In addition to reducing emissions, on-site nitrogen gas generators can save businesses thousands of dollars in costs. Liquid nitrogen comes at a high cost overall. The longer a business runs on nitrogen cylinders, the more it spends. Meanwhile, a nitrogen gas generator can save the business money over time.

On Site Gas Can Help!

If your plastics recycling plant is running on nitrogen from cylinders, then your business isn’t operating as efficiently as it could be. Nitrogen cylinder delivery contributes to carbon emissions and creates waste, from an environmental standpoint as well as a financial one.

Installation of an onsite nitrogen generator can help. Our nitrogen gas generators operate efficiently and can provide high-purity nitrogen gas on demand.
