What safety problems should be paid attention to when contacting nitrogen
Oct 17, 2025
Author: DEAR AST

Nitrogen is a colorless, tasteless and odorless inert gas. It is harmless to human body, but when the nitrogen content in the air increases, it reduces the oxygen content, making it difficult to breathe. If pure nitrogen is inhaled, it will be asphyxiated due to severe hypoxia and cause death.

In order to avoid the increase of nitrogen content in the air in the workshop, nitrogen separated from the air separation plant shall not be discharged indoors. When there is a large amount of nitrogen, you should wear an oxygen respirator. When overhauling nitrogen charging equipment, vessels and pipelines, air shall be used to replace them, and the operation shall be allowed only after the oxygen content is qualified. During maintenance, the nitrogen valve shall be supervised to prevent personal accidents caused by opening the valve by mistake.

The research rooted in and practiced in the field of air separation is a professional research and development, manufacturing, installation of various complete sets of air separation equipment, focusing on the pressure and challenges faced by customers, and is good at providing customers with the most competitive air separation project design scheme. DEAR gas mainly produces conventional gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc. Provide users with timely and accurate technical support, find possible problems as early as possible, and handle them in a timely manner.

Cryogenic air separation nitrogen production uses air as raw material, which is compressed, purified and heat exchanged to liquefy gas air into liquid air. Liquid air is mainly a mixture of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen have different boiling points and are separated by distillation to obtain nitrogen. 1. Air compression and purification The air passes through the air strainer to remove dust and mechanical impurities, then enters the air compressor, compresses to the required pressure, and then goes to the air cooler to reduce the air temperature. It then enters the air drying purifier to remove moisture, carbon dioxide, acetylene and other hydrocarbons from the air. 2. Air separation The purified air enters the main heat exchanger in the air separation column, and is cooled to the saturation temperature by the reflux gas (production nitrogen gas, waste gas), and is sent to the bottom of the distillation column. The nitrogen is obtained fr
