About Air Separation Introduction

Air separation is the process of separating air components such as nitrogen, oxygen and argon from one another. It plays a key role in many industries such as medical, manufacturing and energy production. Cryogenic distillation is usually employed for this task; it involves cooling air to extremely low temperatures before separating components based on their boiling points. The gases produced can then be used for various applications from industrial processes to medical treatments. Recent technological advancements in air separation technology have made this task more efficient and cost-effective than ever before.

Basic System of Air Separation Plant

 

Power System
Air separation plants use raw material air compressors to separate air at low temperature in order to produce oxygen, nitrogen and other products through energy conversion. Most of the device's energy input comes from this same raw air compressor; consequently, most of its total energy consumption during air separation comes from this same device.

Purification System
This consists of an air pre-cooling system (air cooling system) and molecular sieve purification system (purification system). Compressed raw air has a high temperature, so the pre-cooling system reduces it through contact heat exchange while washing away harmful impurities like acidic substances. Furthermore, the molecular sieve purification system further removes moisture, carbon dioxide, acetylene, propylene, propane, nitrous oxide in the air as well as other hazardous for air separation plants.

Heat Exchange System
The heat balance in an air separation plant is achieved through refrigeration and heat exchange systems. Due to advances in technology, most heat exchangers now feature aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers.

Distillation System
The core of an air separation plant is essential equipment for achieving low temperature separation. Usually, two stages of high and low pressure two-stage rectification are used; it consists of a low pressure column, medium pressure column and condensing evaporator.

Product Delivery System
Oxygen and nitrogen produced in an air separation plant need a specific pressure in order for their use in a subsequent system. This system includes oxygen compressors and nitrogen compressors of various specifications.

Liquid Storage System
An air separation plant can produce certain products such as liquid oxygen and nitrogen, which then enter a liquid storage system for use when required. This system consists of tanks, cryogenic liquid pumps and vaporizers of various specifications.

Control System
Large-scale air separation plants utilize computer distributed control system, which enables automated operation.

Frequently Asked Question

Do you have any question?
