Nitrogen, an inert gas, finds extensive application in various industries due to its non-reactive nature and excellent blanketing properties. It is commonly used for purging, contaminant removal, stripping processes, and sparging. Additionally, nitrogen is utilized for safe storage of explosive compounds and prevention of combustible dust explosions. Notably, approximately two-thirds of global industrial nitrogen production is sold as gas, while one-third is sold as a liquid. Nitrogen, being colorless and odorless, forms multiple bonds with different elements and compounds. Here are some key industrial uses of nitrogen gas:

1. Food Industry: Nitrogen gas creates an unreactive environment that helps preserve perishable food items, delaying rancidity and oxidative damage.

2. Lighting Industry: Nitrogen is employed in bulbs as a non-reactive gas to prevent the combustion of tungsten, a metal sensitive to oxygen. It is also a cost-effective alternative to other inert gases like argon, helium, and radon.

3. Steel Manufacturing: Nitrogen is utilized in processes such as melting, ladle treatment, and casting of steel. It directly affects the hardness, formability, and aging properties of steel.

4. Tire Filling: Dry nitrogen, devoid of moisture, prevents tire rim rusting. It is preferred for inflating race, road, and aircraft tires due to its ability to maintain consistent pressures over a longer duration.

5. Beer Manufacturing: Nitrogen is used in certain beer varieties, such as stouts and British ales, either as a replacement or in combination with carbon dioxide. This results in smaller bubbles, facilitating easier beer dispensing. Nitrogen is also used for pressurizing beer cans and bottles.

6. Fire Fighting Systems: Nitrogen is employed in fire suppression systems to reduce oxygen concentration, swiftly extinguishing fires. This is necessary as oxygen-rich environments promote rapid fire spread.

7. Chemical Industry: Nitrogen is commonly used as a gas for sample preparation and chemical analysis. It aids in volume reduction and concentration of chemical samples.
