Nitrogen Tanks
Nitrogen has many applications in the food industry for food conservation. It is also widely used in the sector of beverages, such as beer, one of the most coveted in the world. Although other gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), have generally been used to maintain the organoleptic properties of beer, and are pleasing to people’s palates, nitrogen is now being used for the same purpose, since among other things:
- Increases the creaminess of the beer foam
- Increases foam stability
For people who serve beer it may seem that creaminess in the foam depends on the way you get the beer, but the reality is that it depends on the foaming technique, or the mixture of gases used to create the foam. For this, both pure nitrogen or a mixture of 70-75% nitrogen and the rest with carbon dioxide can be used.

Nitrogen is a chemical element that makes up the majority of the atmosphere, approximately 78.03% by volume and 75.5% by weight. It is an inert gas, except when heated and combined with active metals such as magnesium or lithium. It also forms oxides of nitrogen, when combined with oxygen, and ammonia, when combined with hydrogen.
On the other hand, liquid nitrogen is an inert, colorless, odorless, non-flammable, non-corrosive and extremely cold substance. Although it is not corrosive, nor need special anti-corrosion material, when it is used, either in buildings or in the laboratory, it is necessary to handle it with specialized material that supports low temperatures, since its common temperature is -195.8 ° C. It is very common at industrial level and in laboratories, where it is used as a refrigerant. Although nitrogen is normally used in a gaseous state, when used in liquid form, it is necessary to store and transport it in specialized containers that provide the necessary materials, adequate pressure and that also withstand low temperature.

Nitrogen is a chemical element found in group 15 and period 2 of the periodic table and, in addition, its atomic number is 7, that is, each atom of it has 7 protons in its nucleus. On Earth, making up 78% of the atmosphere, is molecular nitrogen, which is just two nitrogen atoms joined together.
Molecular nitrogen, is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas, very abundant in the universe, in fact, is the seventh most abundant element in the entire Solas System and the Milky Way. On the other hand, liquid nitrogen is nothing but pure nitrogen in a liquid state. It is colorless and odorless, has a temperature of about -195.8° C and a triple point density of about 0.807 g/ml. It is produced through the fractional distillation of liquid air. It is very common in industry, in laboratories, where it is used as a refrigerant, and in cryogenics, among others.
