The nitrogen will be used in the manufacturing processes for both cold rolled and galvanized steel at these locations.

Praxair is also finalizing construction of a nitrogen plant for EPCOS  India Private Ltd., a part of TDK-EPC Corporation, a manufacturer of passive electronic components such as soft ferrites and inductive components in Kalyani, West Bengal. In addition, Praxair recently started up a small nitrogen plant for United Phosphorus Ltd., a global agrochemicals company in Jhagadia, Gujarat. Praxair is successfully expanding its presence in India through projects like these, which combine state-of-the-art applications technologies with the right production and supply systems to meet the growing needs of its customers.
