Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing concrete enforcement of the present invention is elaborated:
Nitrogen with air separation facility production is the example explanation as the decompressor brake gas.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, reach the pressure of setting after the compressed machine compression of air, pressure value requires to determine according to actual production.
Adopt cooling device to carry out pre-processed then, air is lowered the temperature to dewater, improve the air quality that enters rectifying column.Cooling device can adopt the one or more combination in air cooling tower, water-cooling tower, water supply pump and the refrigerating machine to use.Air temperature is reduced to the 5-6 degree after pre-dehydration, and density increases, and water content tails off.
Carry out purification process again, air enters from the purifying machine bottom, adsorb to fall by the activated alumina most of moisture that it is contained earlier, and then by molecular sieve adsorption carbon dioxide, acetylene and other hydrocarbon.
Through the air behind pre-dehydration, the purifying, its dust granule degree is less than 3 microns.
The clean gas of purified processing enters in the rectifying column and carry out rectification process under-180 ℃ of temperature.Air separablely goes out pure nitrogen gas after rectification process, the pure nitrogen gas of production mainly is sent to the gas place for use, and another part is sent to purification devices and is used for purification devices regeneration.The useless nitrogen pressure of residue that exceeds use amount can be transported to the brake gas of decompressor as decompressor after reclaiming.The useless nitrogen gas pressure of residue can not reclaim also and can realize purpose of the present invention.
Through the useless nitrogen that produces after the rectification process, its degree of purity is higher, can not contain the large particle dust, is sent to decompressor and can satisfies usage requirement as brake gas.Both avoid the decompressor braking affected by environment, reclaimed nitrogen product again, cost-saved.
As the useless nitrogen after the use of decompressor brake gas, its temperature raises, and has certain heat energy.After transporting in the purifying machine, can be used for purifying machine regeneration.
The present invention adopts cooling device to reduce airborne water content, therefore, can reduce the water separation capability requirement of purifying machine.Correspondingly, the electric heater in the purifying machine will reduce, and the purifying machine volume can reduce.Reduce the purifying machine behind the volume, its molecular sieve also can correspondingly reduce, and the purifying machine useless nitrogen of needed cleaning of regenerating is also few naturally.Therefore, the nitrogen that rectifier unit produces can some remain, thereby the gas of braking can be provided for decompressor.
From overall situation, the present invention adopts the brake gas of the useless nitrogen of remaining cleaning as decompressor.Total energy consumption decreases, because the cooling device power consumption that increases is less than the electric heater power consumption that reduces, and the useless nitrogen of the cleaning after the braking is that hot useless nitrogen can be used for purifying regeneration once more, can reduce the power consumption of the used electric heater of purifying relatively.The purifying machine volume reduces, the molecular sieve consumption also reduces, so on the basis that also decreases of device fabrication expense, has created condition for utilizing clean useless nitrogen.
Unnecessary useless nitrogen is used for the braking of small-sized decompressor, has cancelled air filter, not only avoided the consumption of air filter, the more important thing is to allow environmental factor and decompressor can normally move irrelevant fully.Thereby really deal with problems, realized important breakthrough.
Embodiment among the present invention only is used for that the present invention will be described, does not constitute the restriction to the claim scope, and other substituting of being equal in fact that those skilled in that art can expect are all in protection domain of the present invention.
