Process Industry/Industrial Gas Process industries are comprised of manufacturing businesses that produce end product through chemical or mechanical means on a continual basis with raw materials or feedstock being converted in batch mode or in a continuous flow stream. Process industries include chemicals, oil refining, coal liquefaction, gas to liquids, petrochemicals (plastics, synthetic fibers, and synthetic rubber produced from petroleum), among others. Industrial gas is a group of gases that are commercially manufactured and sold for use in industrial processes, such as steelmaking, oil refining, medical applications, fertilizer, semiconductors, etc... They may be both organic and inorganic, are produced by extraction from the air by a process of separation or are produced by chemical synthesis, and will take various forms such as compressed, liquid, or solid. Applications include Natural Gas Liquefaction – LNG, cryogenics, semiconductor, metallurgy, water treatment, food processing, chemical industry, medical gases and welding. Air gases or bulk gases are produced via air separation and include nitrogen, oxygen and argon.
