Nitrogen (Nitrogen, chemical formula N₂,CAS number 7727-37-9) is a colorless, tasteless, odorless inert gas, accounting for about 78% of the earth's atmospheric volume. In the food additive system, nitrogen is classified as a processing aid (CNS No. 00.024), and its core functions include as a packaging filling gas, refrigerant, propellant, and antioxidant carrier. In 2017, with the approval of the announcement of the National Health Commission, nitrogen (liquid nitrogen) was officially included
