Nitrogen is essential to life on Earth. It is a component of all proteins, and it can be found in all living systems. Nitrogen compounds are present in organic materials, foods, fertilizers, explosives, and poisons. Nitrogen is crucial to life, but in excess it can...
Mar 28, 2020 | General, Important Liquefied Gases, Industrial Gases, Liquid Oxygen (LOX), Produced From Air
Liquid oxygen has a pale blue color and is strongly paramagnetic: it can be suspended between the poles of a powerful horseshoe magnet. Liquid oxygen has a density of 1.141 g/cm3 (1.141 kg/L or 1141 kg/m3), slightly denser than liquid water, and is cryogenic with a...

Properties Gaseous chemical element, symbol: He, atomic number: 2 and atomic weight 4,0026 g/mol. Helium is one of the noble gases of group O in the periodic table. It’s the second lightest element. The main helium source in the world is a series of fields of natural...
Mar 26, 2020 | Important Liquefied Gases, Industrial Gases, Liquid Hydrogen, Produced From Hydrocarbon Feedstock
Liquid hydrogen (LH2 or LH2) is the liquid state of the element hydrogen. Hydrogen is found naturally in the molecular H2 form. To exist as a liquid, H2 must be cooled below its critical point of 33 K. However, for it to be in a fully liquid state without boiling at...
Mar 26, 2020 | Gas Mixtures Produced From Hydrocarbon Feedstock, Important Liquefied Gases, Industrial Gases, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is natural gas (predominantly methane, CH4, with some mixture of ethane, C2H6) that has been cooled down to liquid form for ease and safety of non-pressurized storage or transport. It takes up about 1/600th the volume of natural gas in the...
