Get high-purity oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and argon for your cement production and manufacturing operations.
We offer precise real-time monitoring, mobile alerts, and predictive usage — reduce runouts so you have fewer costly, last-minute deliveries, even during continuous kiln operations and peak production cycles.
Get your first delivery within 48 hours in California or Arizona.
We are proud to offer standard next day delivery, same-day delivery, and available 24/7 monitoring.
From the first walkthrough to delivery and beyond, our team is always ready to serve.
Our gas experts walk through your setup to build systems that prioritize safety and efficiency.
No matter the volume or type of gas, our state-of-the-art labs and highly-skilled production teams deliver.
Our drivers consistently perform in high-pressure environments and champion things such as customer care, road, and onsite safety.
Stop paying rent on cylinders that aren’t in your possession. And enjoy sustainable service with less deliveries thanks to telemetry’s mobile alerts, real-time measurements, and usage trends.
The days of chasing invoices and updating billing info are gone — access your account and re-order with confidence (and ease).
With WestAir cylinder tracking only pay for the cylinders that you are using. Never overpay for storing empty unused cylinders ever again.
Learn more about the different gases commonly used in cement production.
O₂
Combustion enrichment in rotary kilns to increase flame temperatures, improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and boost clinker production capacity. One of the most impactful gas applications in the entire cement manufacturing process.
Ar
Specialty welding of stainless steel and high-alloy components in emissions control and process equipment.
N₂
Purging and inerting kiln systems during startups, shutdowns, and maintenance to prevent combustible dust explosions and ensure safe operations.
CO₂
Cement production is one of the largest industrial sources of CO₂ emissions, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is increasingly being deployed at cement plants to capture and repurpose CO₂.
Learn more about the cement gases and services we offer.
Oxygen (O₂) — The highest-volume and most strategically important delivered gas in cement production. Used primarily for combustion enrichment in rotary kilns and pre-calciner systems, where even small increases in oxygen concentration can significantly boost kiln throughput, reduce fuel consumption, and lower overall emissions. Also increasingly critical for oxyfuel combustion and carbon capture systems as the industry faces mounting pressure to decarbonize.
Nitrogen (N₂) — A strong second with an exceptionally broad range of applications. Used for inerting and purging kiln systems, blanketing raw material silos and grinding mills to prevent combustible dust explosions, pressure testing pipelines, and protecting laboratory instruments — making it indispensable for both production efficiency and plant safety.
Yes. We offer real-time monitoring for most of our gas applications to make sure you never run out. Our solution provides you (and us) with accurate updates on your levels so we can optimize your gas delivery, detect leaks and other issues – saving you money while supporting our sustainability commitments.
Yes. We make true same-day deliveries with no qualifications. If you call at 4:55 pm and you need a same-day delivery, we will deliver that day.
We offer cost-effective bulk gas solutions including bulk oxygen, acetylene, and argon for metal fabrication companies. Your products will be safely delivered by our modern fleet of fuel-efficient trucks, equipped for cylinder and bulk gas delivery.
Yes. WestAir barcodes each cylinder and will scan each cylinder when it enters and leaves your location. This eliminates the need for you to perform time-consuming and error-prone inventory tracking. This process also guarantees accurate monthly billing statements.
