April 26, 2022 – East Coast Nitrogen
East Coast Nitrogen is a Joint Venture between Messer North America and Air Products. ECN is the second JV between these two companies after they completed the East Coast Oxygen ASU in Bethlehem, PA. AP operates
the plant at the site of their former ASU, and Messer is entitled to 50% of the production, which is an inverted relationship to the ECO plant in Bethlehem. AP showed the AWS how they manage quality and demand at the
plant with their state of the art gas lab and advanced control network. Many thanks to Messer and AP for
organizing this tour and entertaining the AWS members.
