Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group (Nikkiso CE&IG) was awarded a contract by Matheson Tri-Gas Inc. (Matheson) to build an air separation unit in Las Vegas, Nevada, scheduled for completion in 2027. The new plant will produce oxygen, nitrogen, and argon to meet increasing demand for liquid gases in the medical, fabrication, construction, and food processing industries across Nevada, California, Utah, and Arizona.
As an added benefit, Nikkiso CE&IG will source liquid nitrogen from the air separation plant for its nearby pump manufacturing facility in Las Vegas to test the performance of its cryogenic pumps before deployment and installation.
Nikkiso CE&IG is a global provider of cryogenic equipment and solutions. The group employs more than 1800 people in more than 20 countries and is headed by Cryogenic Industries Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nikkiso Co. Ltd.
