Nitrogen, as an inert gas, has a lower solubility than carbon dioxide, conferring a number of notable advantages to both the brewing process and the final quality of the beer. Nitrogen offers a fine bubble texture, creating a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Nitrogen is also proving to be an economical alternative, offering significant savings compared to the traditional use of CO2.

A key player in the brewing industry in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France decided to replace CO2 with Nitrogen in some of their brewing process. NOVAIR installed a PSA Twin tower NS 100 nitrogen generator, custom-designed to meet the company's needs. The switch to on-site nitrogen generation brought several benefits to the brewery as it has become autonomous in its nitrogen supply. The company has improved beer quality by creating finer, more stable bubbles, offering a smoother and creamier texture. Also, operating costs have been optimized thanks to the elimination of CO2 deliveries, offering greater budget predictability.
