We can't begin to list all the things that air does for industry. There are applications everywhere we care to look and see what's really going on.

Air is used to cool things, like when we use a fan to blow air across hot items to carry away heat. The oxygen in air is used in all sorts of combustion. We compress air and use it to drive all sorts of tools or equipment. We also compress and cool air to the point that it becomes a liquid, and then distill that so we can recover industrial gases for a wide variety of uses in manufacturing, medicine and in service work. These are just a few of the uses of air in industry.
