Oxygen is a vital component used in many industrial applications. Due to high chemical reactivity, oxygen combines with different elements very easily and quickly. So, bulk amounts of oxygen are needed by those industries where this gas is used for production. Oxygen cylinders cannot fulfill such large-scale requirements of industries. MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd offers onsite PSA generators for oxygen industrial production. These oxygen plants are customized according to the nature of each industry, to ensure convenience for users.
Different industries that use oxygen for production
Various industrial activities can be conducted with the help of pure oxygen. The PSA oxygen plant of MVS Engineering produces up to 95% pure oxygen, with a dew point of (-) 40°C and at a pressure of 5 kg/cm2g. Hence, this generator is perfect for oxygen industrial production in different sectors.
Paper industry
The paper industry is another notable sector where the use of oxygen is compulsory. Paper pulp is bleached with the action of oxygen, to eliminate the lignin of wood. Earlier, chlorine was used for bleaching of pulp. But increase in water pollution forced to replace chlorine with oxygen, which is more environment-friendly. The use of oxygen and caustic soda is also much cheaper than using chlorine dioxide and hypochlorite.
Chemical industry
Chemical industries need pure oxygen for oxidizing different chemicals. Hydrogen peroxide, ethylene dichloride, nitric acid, vinyl chloride, and several hydrocarbons are oxidized in chemical factories. Coal is partially oxidized to form a new fuel, which is much cheaper and more environment-friendly. Catalysts of different chemical reactions can be restored through oxidation, making those units ready for use again.
Steel industry
The steel industry is the foremost sector where oxygen is necessary for multiple steps of steel manufacturing. The temperature of furnaces can be boosted by supplying oxygen, due to which the combustion of fuel is speeded up. So, a lesser quantity of coke is needed as fuel in these furnaces that are used in steel manufacturing. Oxygen also combines with leftover carbon, resulting in the formation of carbon dioxide which is released into the atmosphere.
Glass and ceramic industry
Atmospheric air turns into oxygen after passing through an oxygen generator. This pure oxygen gas acts as fuel in furnaces where glass and ceramic products are created. It reduces the cost of fuel consumption in these industries. Moreover, furnaces become more productive as oxygen increases the temperature of combustion.
Waste Water Treatment & Fisheries
Wastewater treatment, sewage treatment, and aquaculture are some other important sectors where oxygen is needed as a primary raw material.
