Oxygen (O2)
industrial grade
Industrial Oxygen Gas as per Indian Standards IS-309. Minimum 99% purity (-40°C dew point). Standard = 99.6% purity.
Medical Grade
Medical Oxygen Gas as per Indian Pharmacopeia. Minimum 93% purity in cylinders ranging from 0.5-7 cubic meters.
Liquid Oxygen
Refrigerated at up to 99.6% purity in portable liquid unit cylinders. Contact us for purity requirements as per your needs.
Properties
Applications
Properties
Oxygen is an odorless, colorless, tasteless, and highly-oxidizing gas.
Production processes: The most common commercial method for producing oxygen is the separation of air using either a cryogenic distillation process or a vacuum pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process
Boiling Point: -183 °C
Specific gravity: 1.105 (air = 1 making it slightly heavier than air)
Supply Modes Offered: Cylinders and Liquid Containers
Flammability: nonflammable gas but enhances combustion and enables all materials that are flammable in air to burn much more vigorously
Applications
What is Oxygen Uses for?
Steel ManufacturingTo enrich air and increase combustion temperatures in blast and open hearth furnaces; to raise steel temperatures and enhance recycling of scrap metal in electric arc furnaces; and to replace coke as the combustible in steel making. |
Chemical Processing:To alter the structure of feed stocks through oxidation, producing nitric acid, ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, vinyl chloride monomer and other building block chemicals; and to increase capacity and destruction efficiency of waste incinerators. |
Pulp and Paper:To help manufacturers meet stringent environmental regulations in a variety of mill processes including delignification, bleaching, oxidative extraction, chemical recovery, white/black liquor oxidation and lime kiln enrichment. |
Metal Production:To replace or enrich air, increasing combustion temperatures in ferrous and non-ferrous metals production; to create a hot flame in high-temperature welding torches used in cutting and welding. |
Metal Fabrication:To support oxy-fuel cutting operations. Sometimes added in small quantities for shielding gases. |
Glass Manufacturing:To enhance combustion in glass furnaces and forehearths, reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions to levels below new stringent requirements of the U.S. Clean Air Ac. |
Petroleum Recovery and Refining:To reduce viscosity and improve flow in oil and gas wells; to increase capacity of fluid catalytic cracking plants as well as to facilitate use of heavier feed stocks; and to reduce sulfur emissions in refineries. |
Health Services:To resuscitate or, in combination with other gases, to anesthetize; but also essential to life-support systems used in emergencies or long-term treatment of patients with respiratory disorders. |
Utilities:To convert coal to electricity for power generation. |
