We supplied a complete containerised nitrogen generation system N2 BOX for a 5 MW hydrogen production facility in Italy.
The integrated N2 BOX includes:
• OMEGA AIR VDA 7 screw compressor
• AAF 0076 compressed-air filtration
• RDT 75 refrigeration dryer
• TAC 70 activated carbon tower
• N-GEN 15 PSA nitrogen generator
• 4 kW high-pressure nitrogen booster
• Process cylinder bundle filling at up to 200 bar
At the centre is the N-GEN 15 that produces 4.5 m³/h of nitrogen at 99.999% purity.
The nitrogen will be used for purging and inerting equipment operating in contact with hydrogen.
The hydrogen facility is designed to produce approximately 750 tonnes of hydrogen per year, which will be used to fuel public transport vehicles in different towns in Italy.
This project demonstrates how compressed-air treatment, on-site nitrogen generation, high-pressure boosting and storage can be integrated into one complete OMEGA AIR containerised solution.
