Nitrogen for preventing dust explosions

Dust explosions can occur wherever dry goods are handled. Dry bulk materials, such as ore, coal, cement and grain, are always a considerable fire and explosion hazard, especially if in contact with oxygen. Due to its high level of inertness, nitrogen is used in this context for headspace filling of storage spaces and tanks.

In particular, there are significant risks associated with the mixing of dry and dusty goods as well as powdery materials. This affects a number of production processes in the chemical, pharmaceutical, metal and food industries. Nitrogen is ideal for inerting mixers to prevent dust explosions.

With our nitrogen generators, we supply high quality solutions for the stationary and mobile production of nitrogen for different applications, including for low volume requirements.
