Food Grade Nitrogen
Food Grade Nitrogen gas is extensively utilized in various food preservation applications. It is commonly used for chilling and freezing, controlled atmosphere storage, and even fumigation of grains. Nitrogen gas helps create a protective atmosphere, preventing spoilage and extending the shelf-life of food products. It is used for processes such as blanketing (to prevent oxygen exposure), modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), sparging (to remove unwanted gases), food freezing and chilling, and grain fumigation. When combined with Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen, Nitrogen gas is particularly effective in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) applications, further enhancing food preservation capabilities.
