Air Products Chemical Reaction Cooling Using Liquid Nitrogen

Liquid nitrogen is the most effective way to cool down a chemical reaction, to temperatures below -90C for faster reactions with complete temperature control.

Air Products fully engineered systems provide an economical solution for direct, semi direct or indirect cooling methods. The power of liquid nitrogen as a refrigerant, coupled with uniformity of the exchange fluid, ensures perfect chemical reaction temperature control. For indirect cooling systems, the gaseous nitrogen may be re-used in other plant processes to improve overall process economics.
