Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group has been selected by Matheson Tri-Gas, Inc. to undertake
Rising demand drives air separation plant
The facility will be oriented to supply the growing need for industrial gases in key sectors such as medical, food, manufacturing and construction. The regions that will benefit will be Nevada, California, Utah and Arizona, consolidating Matheson’s coverage in the southwestern United States.
One of the highlights of the agreement is that Nikkiso will be able to use the nitrogen produced for its own operations at its nearby cryogenic plant, where specialized pumps are manufactured and tested. This integration will allow the company to optimize its technical validation processes without relying on external supplies.
Long-term collaboration between companies
The relationship between Nikkiso CE&IG and Matheson is not new. The two companies have been working together on similar initiatives for several years, combining gas separation technology with distribution logistics on a regional scale. This new contract strengthens that alliance and reinforces their joint presence in the specialty and packaged gases supply chain.
Matheson, a subsidiary of Nippon Sanso Holdings Corporation, reaffirms with this project its focus on efficiently serving its industrial customers in the region. The development of this plant also represents a structural improvement in the local availability of key raw materials for industrial and hospital processes.
