Membrane
Nitrogen Generators
Gastek Engineering manufactures membrane nitrogen generators using advanced hollow-fiber technology for on-site nitrogen production. Ideal for 95–99.5% purity applications in oil & gas, food packaging, fire prevention, and electronics.
Hollow Fiber Membrane Technology
Membrane Nitrogen Generators utilize hollow fiber membrane technology to separate nitrogen from compressed air. The membrane consists of bundles of hollow fibers, with each fiber having a selective permeable layer that allows oxygen, water vapor, and other gases to permeate through the membrane wall faster than nitrogen.
As compressed air flows through these hollow fibers, oxygen, water vapor, and other gases permeate through the membrane walls and are vented to the atmosphere. The nitrogen, which permeates more slowly, continues through the fibers and is collected as the product gas.
Technical Specifications
Why Choose Membrane Technology
Membrane nitrogen generators offer several distinct advantages over other nitrogen generation technologies, making them ideal for applications where simplicity and reliability are priorities.
- Simple operation with no moving parts
- Instant start-up with no warm-up time
- Minimal maintenance requirements
- Compact design for space-constrained installations
- Continuous operation without cycling
- Silent operation with no noise pollution
Applications

Membrane vs. PSA Technology
Understanding the differences between membrane and PSA nitrogen generation technologies.
Membrane Technology
Best suited for applications requiring continuous flow of nitrogen at moderate purity levels.
Choose When:
- Lower purity nitrogen (95-99.5%) is acceptable
- Compact installation space is limited
- Immediate start-up is required
- Minimal maintenance is a priority
- Silent operation is required
PSA Technology
Ideal for applications requiring high purity nitrogen and larger production volumes.
Choose When:
- High purity nitrogen (up to 99.999%) is required
- Large flow rates are needed
- Energy efficiency is a priority
- Consistent purity is essential
- Lower operating costs are more important
