ConceptThe GAN range of nitrogen plants are pre-as-

sembled modular systems offering safe, reliable

and easy operation. The plant’s design provides

flexibility to meet the needs of individual users

of nitrogen gas. When needed liquid nitrogen

output is available to meet either a regular de-

mand for liquid nitrogen or a need for strategic

reserves of nitrogen product.

The highly adaptable design of GAN plants is

the result of over 100 years of Linde experience

making them the first choice for industrial users

needing on-site, cost effective nitrogen gas.

GAN processAtmospheric air is filtered and compressed

before carbon dioxide, water and residual oil

are removed in the air purification unit. Air then

passes into the coldbox where air is cooled,

liquefied and distilled to yield pure nitrogen

gas product. Any liquid nitrogen product passes

to the storage tank for use as liquid or future

vaporisation for peak gas demands or plant

shutdown.

GAN plant features- Compact design and simple installation

Linde CryoPlants Ltd., a subsidiary of The Linde Group based in UK, is specialised in the manufacture of compact air separation plants. Such plants are

designed to meet the needs of our customers in a variety of different industries.

The core product of the portfolio centres on a range of nitrogen generation plants. Linde CryoPlants standard designs are containerised which help

reduce installation time and cost at site. An in house design and manufactured expansion brake turbine is used or a liquid injection option is available

to overcome the thermal losses in the manufacturing process. Such plants are economical and enjoy an excellent reputation for reliability and quality.

In addition, Linde CryoPlants also manufacture a range of dedicated liquid oxygen producing plants that are designed with the needs of a hospital

installation or alternatively those of a dedicated cylinder filling station in mind. Once again these plants are containerised and use the same in house

design of expansion brake turbine.

Linde CryoPlants have enjoyed considerable success in the sales of their product range worldwide and welcome discussion on your application to see

how they can become your preferred partner of choice for your air separation needs.
