Return on investment compared to delivered nitrogen
Investing in an industrial nitrogen generator for on-site nitrogen production represents a significant upfront cost, but the long-term savings and return on investment (ROI) are substantial when compared to the ongoing expenses of securing a nitrogen gas supply through bottled or bulk nitrogen from third-party suppliers. The cost per unit of nitrogen produced on-site is markedly lower, primarily due to the elimination of delivery fees, rental charges for cylinders or tanks, and administrative costs associated with managing orders and deliveries.
Additionally, on-site nitrogen production provides a consistent supply of nitrogen at the required purity levels, reducing waste and inefficiencies associated with handling and storing bottled nitrogen. Businesses also benefit from the predictability of operating expenses and the ability to scale nitrogen production without incurring exponentially higher costs.
Typically, companies can recover the initial investment in an industrial gas generator within two to three years, depending on their nitrogen usage rates. After this period, the cost savings become even more pronounced, making on-site nitrogen generation a financially savvy choice for industries reliant on a steady nitrogen gas supply.
