LIN/LOX/LAR – , and liquid argon

Cryogenic -A state of extreme cold characterized by low temperatures, usually -130°F(F (-90°C) or below

Air Separation Unit (ASU) – A cryogenic air separation unit typically ranges in size from 50 to 5000 tons per day, capable of producing high purity gaseous O2, N2 and Ar, when equipped with a liquefier can also produce LIN/LOX/LAR

N-Plant - A Praxair acronym for plants that use cryogenic distillation columns to produce ultra high purity nitrogen only.

Non-cryogenic - An air that operates at near-ambient temperatures and uses physical property differences other than boiling point, suchllidtdh as molecular size and mass, to produce commerc illlblially valuable gaseous products such as nitrogen and oxygen. Typically lower purity than cryogenic

Membrane Plants - . A non-cryygogenic technolo gy that uses hollow-fiber ppyolymer membranes to separate gaseous nitrogen from air by selective permeability.

Citi Chemicals for the Non-Chemist Conference – NYC 11/29/10 27 Glossary cont. Sw ing Adsorp tion (VPSA) - APA Praxa ir acronym for non- cryogenic oxygen plants. VPSA plants use one or two -filled beds to hold all the impurities of air and allow purified oxygen to pass through.

Steam (SMR) - A reaction of natural gas (methane CH4) or other light ( or ) with steam for the on-purpose production of hydrogen and/or .

Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) – Advanced H2 purification technology

Partial oxidation - A reaction of hyy(drocarbons (such as natural g g,as, naphtha, coke or coal) with oxygen to produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide

Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) – Most advanced (clean coal) power generation technology

Gasification – of hydrocarbons to produce synthesis gas

Synthesis Gas – Combination of H2 and CO
