Ved Firms’ nitrogen generators can help with a variety of atmosphere control applications in a wide range of glass manufacturing processes:
To ensure that the oxidation does not occur a huge volume of gas is required with some plants using as much as 765 NM3 per hour of Nitrogen. As float glass manufacturers tend to operate around the clock, every day of the year, this is a huge nitrogen gas volume. Ved Firms’ generators are capable of producing massive amounts of nitrogen required by glass industries.
Please contact us for more information. We can help ensure the success of your glass production with reliable supplies of nitrogen in the required purity levels.

FAQS
Float glass is manufactured by floating molten glass on molten tin. Nitrogen, often combined with a controlled amount of hydrogen, creates a protective atmosphere above the tin bath, preventing oxidation of the molten tin and helping produce smooth, defect-free glass surfaces.
Nitrogen minimizes oxidation, contamination, and surface defects during production. It helps maintain stable processing conditions, resulting in clearer glass, improved surface finish, fewer imperfections, and consistent product quality.
Compressed air contains oxygen and moisture that can cause oxidation, contamination, and product defects. Nitrogen is dry, inert, and non-reactive, making it ideal for protecting molten glass, furnaces, and production equipment.
Yes. Nitrogen helps reduce bubbles, oxidation, contamination, and surface imperfections by maintaining a controlled atmosphere throughout the manufacturing process, leading to higher-quality finished glass.
Nitrogen prevents oxidation and corrosion inside furnaces, pipelines, tanks, and process equipment by displacing oxygen and moisture. This helps extend equipment life and reduce maintenance requirements.
Yes. An on-site PSA nitrogen generator provides continuous nitrogen production without the recurring costs of cylinder refills, transportation, storage, and handling. It also improves operational reliability and workplace safety.
Yes. Nitrogen helps maintain a controlled atmosphere during annealing, reducing oxidation and improving the consistency, strength, and surface quality of finished glass products.
