Air Liquide is commissioning a nitrogen liquifier at it’s plant in Isipingo, Durban, South Africa, doubling the company’s production capacity in KwaZulu-Natal.

The liquifier is the first of a new generation of highly efficient plant in the country, developed by Air Liquide Engineering as a proprietary technology for modular capacity expansion.
