Argon is primarily obtained as a byproduct during the fractional distillation of liquid air, a process used to produce oxygen and nitrogen. It is separated due to its distinct boiling point. It is non-toxic and safe for most uses, and are widely available and cost-effective due to its atmospheric abundance.
