Small Liquid Nitrogen Plant – Complete Guide for LN2 Production

Nov 27 , 2025

1. Overview

A Small Liquid Nitrogen Plant provides an effective and convenient solution to generate LNlocally. Compact liquid nitrogen plants are popular in many laboratories, research facilities, food-processing plants and metal industries as they help to save on delivery fees and significantly improve workplace safety.

With increasing demand, manufacturers like Nanjing Bangwin Gas have begun offering modular LNplants with reliable performance and low power usage.Browse our other systems for gas production in Nitrogen Generators and Cryogenic Air Separation Units .

2. What Is a Small Liquid Nitrogen Plant?

A Small Liquid Nitrogen Plant is a small-sized cryogenic system to locally produce ultra-cold liquid nitrogen from atmospheric air.

The unit is ideal for users that need a steady supply of LN, but do not want to pay the high costs associated with transporting liquid nitrogen or have to deal with an inconsistent third-party vendor.

Capacity ranges from 5200 liters per hour depending on the specific model.

3. How does a small LNplant work

The working principle of the Small Liquid Nitrogen Plant involves several key steps :

Air Compression: The compressor intakes atmospheric air and raises its pressure.

Air Purification: Filters are used to remove moisture, CO, hydrocarbons, and dust particles from the air.

Cryogenic Cooling: The filtered air enters a cryogenic cold box, where it is cooled to cryogenic temperatures using an expansion cycle.

Nitrogen Liquefaction: The system further cools the nitrogen gas below its boiling point (196°C) and liquefies it to produce liquid nitrogen.

Storage in Vacuum Tanks: The produced LNis then transferred to insulated storage tanks (commonly known as dewars or liquid tanks) for safe storage and use.
