Did you know that brewers can achieve up to 90% savings on their process gas costs with no impact on their DO? With Pneumatech on-site nitrogen generation, we can generate brewer-quality nitrogen, at a fraction of the cost of delivered CO2. This allows brewers to take control of their gas supply, reduce their carbon footprint (no off-site production/deliveries/losses) all while saving thousands of pounds.

Calculate your own potential savings!

Wondered how much you could save by processing your beer with nitrogen instead of CO2?

 

We have you covered with our brewery-specific calculator. Our simple calculation demonstrates the huge CO2e reduction in your process, all whilst saving tens of thousands of pounds per year, as well as 80%+ savings on gas cost vs CO2.

Contact us with the details about your brewery, such as your nitrogen usage or the size of generator you need. Our industry experts will put together the best on-site gas solution for you. If you don’t have that information, don’t worry, we will help you through the specification process.

The right nitrogen solution for every brewery

When it comes to nitrogen for breweries, one size doesn't fit all. We know that the realities of a large production facility are much different from the requirements of a small craft brewery. That is why we don’t offer a uniform brewery solution that would work for only a few. Fortunately, our nitrogen generator product range is extensive and flexible, allowing us to present every brewery with a solution that meets its specific needs.

PSA Nitrogen Generators

Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) generators allow companies to produce their own nitrogen instead of relying on third-party vendors. This offers wide-ranging benefits, such as lower costs, reduced logistics, and increased flexibility (for more on the many benefits of on-site nitrogen generation, go here). These generators are a very safe nitrogen solution and quickly pay for themselves.

Membrane Nitrogen Generators

Membrane nitrogen generators utilize semi-permeable membranes to separate nitrogen gas from the surrounding air, providing a continuous and on-site source of high-purity nitrogen gas without the need for traditional nitrogen storage or delivery systems.
