Foodfresh Nitrogen (N2)
Features
- Odourless and colourless
- Non-toxic
- Does not support combustion
- An asphyxiant (does not support life)
- Inert, dry and slightly soluble
Benefits
- Nitrogen gas in only slightly soluble in a wide range of liquids and is therefore used to flush unwanted gases from solutions
Applications and Uses
- Use in combinations with carbon dioxide in MAP applications to prevent pack collapse
- Vegetable oils, animal fats where oxidation causes rancidity
- Process water, where dissolved oxygen causes unwanted product characteristics
- Milk products where oxidation produces unacceptable odour and flavours
- Syrup tanks in soft drink factories for reducing in-can oxygen levels
- Fresh fruit juice to increase shelf life
- Pressure transfer of liquids
|
Please Note:
- To displace oxygen where aerobic spoilage mechanisms dominate and oxidative rancidity may be a problem.
