Nitrogen Generator (PSA)

medium 82 models total

A PSA nitrogen generator makes inert gas by separating air rather than burning fuel, which gives a cleaner, sulphur-free gas that chemical and gas carriers need where combustion-type inert gas would contaminate the cargo.

What sets PSA nitrogen generation apart

Conventional inert gas plants burn fuel oil and scrub the flue gas down to a low-oxygen mixture that still carries traces of sulphur oxides and soot. A Pressure Swing Adsorption nitrogen generator instead compresses ordinary air and pushes it through beds of carbon molecular sieve that adsorb oxygen preferentially, leaving a nitrogen-rich stream behind. There is no combustion, no flue gas chemistry to manage, and no fuel consumption tied to the inerting duty -- which is why chemical tankers and gas carriers favour it over flue-gas IG for cargoes that cannot tolerate combustion by-products.

Nitrogen generator (PSA) flow
Flow through a pressure-swing adsorption nitrogen generator: compressed air to an air receiver, alternating carbon molecular sieve towers switched by valves, oxygen-rich gas vented, and nitrogen collected in a buffer receiver for the inert gas main.

Main components

Air compressor and pre-treatment

Feeds dry, oil-free compressed air to the sieve beds; any moisture or oil carryover shortens sieve life sharply.

Carbon molecular sieve beds

Two or more vessels operating in alternating adsorption and regeneration cycles, so the plant delivers a continuous nitrogen stream while one bed vents captured oxygen and regenerates under reduced pressure.

Purity and flow control

An oxygen analyser on the product stream feeding a control valve that adjusts flow or diverts off-spec gas back to atmosphere until purity recovers after start-up.

Selection criteria

  • Required purity -- cargo tank blanketing often accepts 95 to 97.5 percent nitrogen, while some chemical grades demand higher purity and lower flow.
  • Flow rate matched to the largest single tank's filling or purging rate, since undersized plants cannot keep pace during fast discharge.
  • Sieve bed capacity and expected feed air quality, since ambient humidity and temperature both affect achievable purity.

Regulations and class

IACS UR and class rules for inert gas systems apply to PSA plants in the same way as combustion-type IG, covering oxygen content monitoring, alarm setpoints and backup arrangements. IMO's IGC Code addresses inerting requirements for gas carriers where nitrogen systems are common, and class surveys check the oxygen analyser calibration and the plant's ability to maintain the required tank atmosphere continuously through the voyage.

Typical faults

  • Sieve bed contamination from oil carryover in the feed air, which drops nitrogen purity gradually rather than all at once and can go unnoticed without trend logging.
  • Oxygen analyser drift, giving a false purity reading that either wastes nitrogen through unnecessary venting or, worse, allows an off-spec gas into the tank.
  • Regeneration valve wear causing incomplete bed switching, which shows up as a slow purity decline under high demand.
  • Undersized product buffer causing purity dips during rapid demand swings at the start of tank purging.

What to look for in a supplier

  • Sieve bed replacement intervals and cost stated up front, since this is the main recurring expense of the system.
  • Documented purity and flow performance across the ambient temperature and humidity range the vessel actually trades in.
  • Oxygen analyser type and calibration schedule compatible with the ship's existing spares and calibration gas stock.

Nitrogen purity on paper is measured at the analyser, not at the tank -- long, poorly purged distribution lines can let oxygen back-diffuse into the blanket gas well before it reaches the far tank, so check the actual tank atmosphere, not just the generator's output reading.

Common Failures & Inspection Points
  • Fouling, scaling or blocked spray paths reduce treatment effectiveness and cause abnormal pressure drop or emissions readings
  • Pump, blower or fan faults cause low circulation or gas flow and system shutdown
  • Analyzer or sensor contamination causes incorrect gas-quality, emissions or oxygen readings
  • Seal, valve or piping leakage causes liquid or gas leakage and unstable process pressure
  • Control, dosing or interlock faults cause off-specification gas, alarm conditions or automatic shutdown
Service: Inspect treatment vessels or generators, pumps, fans or blowers, spray or filtration equipment, analyzers, drains and control interlocks. Trend gas quality, pressure drop and liquid-treatment condition where applicable. Verify shutdown and isolation functions according to the approved procedure. Refer to manufacturer, vessel and statutory documentation for the exact figure for gas quality, emissions, pressure and chemical limits.
Spare Parts: Carry pump and valve seals, analyzer consumables, filters, spray nozzles, dosing parts, fan or blower service items, sensors and control relays.
Strengths
  • Provides continuous on‑board nitrogen at ≥99.5% purity, reducing reliance on shore‑supplied LN₂
  • Compact footprint and lower weight compared with cryogenic generators
  • Integrated with existing compressed‑air system; only requires clean, dry air
  • Proven Atlas Copco brand reliability and service network
  • Automatic valve inspection schedule (annual) simplifies maintenance planning
Weaknesses
  • Performance is directly tied to the quality of inlet compressed air; oil carry‑over can impair purity
  • Known failure modes include CMS adsorbent bed channeling and switching‑valve malfunction, requiring vigilant monitoring
  • Maximum flow rate may be lower than that of large cryogenic nitrogen plants for very high‑capacity tankers
  • Adsorbent beds require periodic replacement or regeneration, adding lifecycle cost
  • Initial capital expense is higher than simple air‑blowing inert gas systems
Typical Vessels: Oil TankerChemical TankerLPG CarrierProduct Tanker
Decision Guide: Choose if: you need a reliable, high‑purity nitrogen source on board and have an existing clean dry compressed‑air system; vessel operates under IMO inert‑gas regulations and prefers reduced logistics for LN₂. Avoid if: the ship cannot guarantee oil‑free air quality, requires very high nitrogen flow rates beyond PSA capacity, or seeks the lowest upfront cost solution.
Use Cases: SOx control, tanker inerting, nitrogen generation and cargo-atmosphere management.

Spare Parts: Carry pump and valve seals, analyzer consumables, filters, spray nozzles, dosing parts, fan or blower service items, sensors and control relays.
Strengths
  • No moving parts in the separator – very low mechanical wear and maintenance
  • Compact footprint and relatively light compared with compressor‑type generators
  • Fast start‑up; can deliver inert gas on demand within minutes
  • Energy efficient for moderate flow rates, reducing ship power consumption
Weaknesses
  • Flow capacity limited relative to large PSA/compressor systems – may be undersized for very large tankers
  • Membrane fibers are susceptible to degradation over time, requiring periodic replacement
  • Performance drops sharply if moisture or oil carry‑over is not tightly controlled
  • Pre‑filter blockage can cause pressure loss and reduced nitrogen output
Typical Vessels: Product tankerChemical tankerSmall to medium crude carrier (up to ~30,000 dwt)Offshore supply vesselLNG/LPG carrier (as supplemental inert gas source)
Certifications: IMO D‑2 inert gas system approvalDNV GL type approval
Decision Guide: Choose if you need a compact, low‑maintenance nitrogen generator for moderate inert‑gas demand and want to avoid the complexity of flue‑gas IG or large PSA units. Avoid if the vessel requires very high flow rates (>2000 Nm³/h), operates in environments with high moisture/oil carry‑over, or if membrane replacement cycles are not acceptable.
Use Cases: SOx control, tanker inerting, nitrogen generation and cargo-atmosphere management.

Common Failures & Inspection Points
  • Fouling, scaling or blocked spray paths reduce treatment effectiveness and cause abnormal pressure drop or emissions readings
  • Pump, blower or fan faults cause low circulation or gas flow and system shutdown
  • Analyzer or sensor contamination causes incorrect gas-quality, emissions or oxygen readings
  • Seal, valve or piping leakage causes liquid or gas leakage and unstable process pressure
  • Control, dosing or interlock faults cause off-specification gas, alarm conditions or automatic shutdown
Service: Inspect treatment vessels or generators, pumps, fans or blowers, spray or filtration equipment, analyzers, drains and control interlocks. Trend gas quality, pressure drop and liquid-treatment condition where applicable. Verify shutdown and isolation functions according to the approved procedure. Refer to manufacturer, vessel and statutory documentation for the exact figure for gas quality, emissions, pressure and chemical limits.
Spare Parts: Carry pump and valve seals, analyzer consumables, filters, spray nozzles, dosing parts, fan or blower service items, sensors and control relays.
Strengths
  • Delivers ≥99.5% nitrogen purity suitable for IMO inert gas requirements
  • Compact, modular design fits limited engine‑room space on tankers
  • CMS (carbon molecular sieve) cartridges have a service life of 10+ years, reducing replacement cost
  • Integrated O₂ monitoring and alarm functions simplify compliance reporting
  • Eliminates need for bulk liquid nitrogen storage and associated handling hazards
Weaknesses
  • Requires an oil‑free compressed air source; any contamination shortens CMS life
  • Valve switching failures can cause O₂ breakthrough if not monitored closely
  • Maximum flow rate is lower than cryogenic or large‑capacity systems, limiting use on very high‑throughput vessels
  • CMS degradation over time reduces purity and may require periodic performance testing
  • Initial capital cost higher than simple compressed‑air inert gas generators

Certifications: ABS Type ApprovalDNV Classification approvalIMO Inert Gas System compliance
Decision Guide: Choose if: the vessel needs reliable on‑board nitrogen for cargo tank inerting, space is limited, and a high purity (≥99.5%) gas is required without storing liquid nitrogen. Avoid if: the ship demands very high nitrogen flow rates beyond PSA capacity, cannot guarantee oil‑free compressed air quality, or prefers a lower‑cost, low‑maintenance solution such as a simple compressed‑air inert gas system.
Use Cases: SOx control, tanker inerting, nitrogen generation and cargo-atmosphere management.
