Applications in Chemical Industry

Nitrogen: Used as an inert gas to prevent explosions, oxidation, and contamination during chemical processes. It is also used for cryogenic cooling and purging.

Oxygen: Used in chemical reactions that require oxidation, such as combustion and metal refining.

Hydrogen: Used in the production of ammonia, methanol, and other chemicals. It is also used as a fuel and in hydrogenation reactions.

Carbon Dioxide: Used in the production of carbonated beverages, as a refrigerant, and in fire extinguishers.

Helium: Used in leak detection and in gas chromatography.

Argon: Used as a shielding gas during welding and in the production of specialty glass and other materials.
