Oxygen and wine, micro, macro oxygenation and water purification

It is the most abundant element on Earth. It is present in the atmosphere, in the water of seas and oceans, and in vegetation. And in the human body. Oxygen is life, even for wine. In the winery, O2, properly dosed, in macro- or micro-oxygenations, enables optimal management of winemaking processes and wine quality.

O2 also serves another important function: it is used in process water treatment and wastewater purification.

From SIAD plants ultra pure oxygen

At the plant in Osio Sopra, in the province of Bergamo, the most articulated national facility in the technical gas sector and the largest among SIAD’s production units, the T1000 air fractionation plant provides a production capacity of 1,300 tons per day of O2. SIAD also produces ultrapure oxygen (grade 6.0): this is obtained through a double distillation plant that receives technical oxygen as a raw material input.
