Air Liquide Large Industries U.S. LP said Monday it has purchased an Air Separation Unit, or ASU, from Georgia Gulf Corp. (GGC) in Plaquemine, Louisiana.
The ASU produces oxygen, nitrogen and argon and is interconnected via pipeline with Air Liquide's existing gas production facilities in Plaquemine.
The company said the ASU will join an existing system of 13 Air Liquide air separation units and utility production facilities serving more than 30 customers along the Mississippi River via Air Liquide's pipeline network.
Under agreements effective January 1, 2012, Air Liquide will sell oxygen and nitrogen from the pipeline network to Georgia Gulf's Plaquemine chemical plant.
