Messer. Gases for Life.

Industrial gases play an important role in everyday

matters. It is impossible to imagine doing without

them in most aspects of our lives because in

many industrial production processes gases are

as important as water and electricity. They are

visible as fizzing bubbles in drinks – but in many

products they are hidden. Potato chips packed

under a controlled atmosphere, xenon headlights

and krypton torches show them clearly – but gases

are also used, for instance, in producing paper, ice

cream, wind turbines, cars and airbags, tiles and

ceramics, and water standpipes.

There you will learn how nitrogen cools concrete,

endowing it with greater stability, how liquid

carbon dioxide makes foam materials even more

comfortable, and why gases in lamps help them

operate longer, how vehicles are economically

welded with shielding gases and how the quality

of baking trays can be improved by proper com-

pounding of shielding gases. But applications such

as the natural treatment of potable water with

oxygen or the recycling of plastics using cryogenic

nitrogen also show how important gases are for

our lives.

the variety and uses of gases in our daily

lives? Then visit our new website at

Messer is one of the leading industrial gas

companies, and is active in over 30 countries

in Europe and Asia, as well as Peru and Algeria

with over 60 operating companies. The inter-

national activities are managed from Frankfurt

am Main, whilst management of core technical

functions – logistics, engineering, production

and application technology – is undertaken

from Krefeld.

From acetylene to xenon, the Messer Group has

one of the most diverse product portfolios on the

market – the company produces industrial gases

such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide,

Purification of airImpurities such as water vapour and

carbon dioxide are then removed from the air

in a so-called molecular sieve.

Cooling of airBecause the gases which make up air

only liquefy at very low temperatures, the purified

air is cooled to approx. -175 °C in the main heat

exchanger. The cooling is achieved by means

Separating air to produce gases.

And what is air separation?Air can be separated into its components by

means of distillation in special units. So-called

air separation plants employ a thermal process

known as cryogenic rectification to separate the

individual components from one another in order

to produce high-purity nitrogen, oxygen and

argon in liquid and gaseous form.

What is air?Air is a mixture of gases, consisting primarily

of nitrogen (78 %), oxygen (21 %) and the

inert gas argon (0.9 %). The remaining 0.1 %

is made up mostly of carbon dioxide and the

inert gases neon, helium, krypton and xenon.

Compression of airAmbient air is drawn in, filtered and

compressed to approx. 6 bar by a compressor.

Precooling of airTo separate air into its components,

it must first be liquefied at an extremely low

temperature. As a first step, the compressed

air is precooled with chilled water.

Oxygen Nitrogen Argon

8

of internal heat exchange, in which the

flows of cold gas generated during the

process cool the compressed air. By

expansion the compressed air is cooled

further down, whereby it undergoes

partial liquefaction. Now the air is ready

for the separating column, where the

actual separation takes place.

Separation of airSeparation of air into pure oxygen

and pure nitrogen is performed in two

columns, the medium-pressure and the

lowpressure columns. The difference in

boiling temperature of the constituents

is exploited for the separation process.

Oxygen becomes a liquid at -183 °C

and nitrogen at -196 °C. The continuous

evaporation and condensation brought

about by the intense exchange of heat

and material between the rising vapour

and the descending liquid produces pure

nitrogen at the top of the low-pressure

column and pure oxygen at the bottom.

Argon is separated in additional columns

and involves some extra steps in the

process.

Withdrawal and storageGaseous oxygen and nitrogen are fed

into pipelines for transport to users,

e.g. steelworks. In liquid form, oxygen,

nitrogen and argon are stored in tanks

and transported to customers by tanker lorries.

Pipeline gases

In integrated industrial areas with a large number

of bulk customers, for example in steel production

or in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry,

gases such as oxygen or nitrogen can be supplied

centrally via a system of pipelines engineered

andmanaged by Messer.

On-site

If it is not possible to connect a bulk customer to

a pipeline system, a production unit will be built

on-site, which in many cases is operated remotely.

Gases in road tankers and storage tanks

The most economically effective way to supply

“medium” volumes is to transport and store them

as cryogenic liquid and compressed gases in road

tankers. We provide our products in insulated

storage containers with vaporizers or in pressure

vessels on your site.
