Preparation facilities of high-purity oxygen
Technical Field
The invention relates to an oxygen preparation device, in particular to a preparation device and a preparation method of high-purity oxygen.
Background
For a long time, oxygen for ships to navigate in the ocean mainly depends on oxygen bottles carried on the ship body, the oxygen bottles need to be supplied at ports, and the oxygen in the oxygen bottles is generally prepared by a cryogenic air separation method at a shore base. The existing cryogenic air separation method for preparing high-purity oxygen has the defects that the occupied area of equipment is large, the arrangement on a ship is difficult to realize, and the ocean voyage time of the ship is limited due to the limitation of the ship site and the limited number of high-purity oxygen cylinders carried by the ship. Along with the development of large-tonnage novel ocean-going ships, the demand of high-purity oxygen in ship navigation is increasing, and the problem that the high-purity oxygen needs to be prepared on the ship on site is solved urgently at present by using less space. The pressure swing adsorption method is a method for preparing oxygen by a pressure adsorption and pressure reduction desorption method in a closed adsorption tower container, wherein air is compressed to 0.8MPa by a compressor, purified compressed air enters an oxygen preparation adsorption tower, oxygen molecules are adsorbed on a molecular sieve in the oxygen preparation adsorption tower, the molecular sieve is saturated by adsorption for 60 to 70 seconds, an air inlet valve is closed, an exhaust valve is opened, nitrogen which is not adsorbed is discharged, then the oxygen molecular sieve is subjected to pressure reduction desorption and desorption, and oxygen is desorbedThe absorption time is 5-10 seconds, and the desorbed oxygen is sent to an oxygen storage tank through an air generating valve; the general closed adsorption tower containers are arranged in pairs, and the automatic control program controls the two adsorption towers to alternately perform adsorption and desorption, thereby achieving the purpose of continuously producing oxygen. The oxygen obtained by pressure swing adsorption contains argon, the molecular sieve used in the method is zeolite molecular sieve, which is a kind of zeolite type crystalline aluminosilicate with microporous cubic lattice, the basic structural unit is tetrahedron formed by four oxygen anions surrounding a smaller silicon or aluminum ion, and the tetrahedron generally contains Li+、Na+、Ca2+The nitrogen and the oxygen are separated by utilizing the difference of the electric quadrupole moments of two gas molecules of nitrogen and oxygen, nitrogen molecules with large electric quadrupole moments are preferentially adsorbed by a molecular sieve under the action of cations, oxygen molecules with small electric quadrupole moments and inert argon molecules have poor adsorption capacity on the surface of zeolite, so that nitrogen is separated from oxygen and argon by a pressure swing adsorption method, and the proportion of oxygen to argon in the separated product gas is as follows: 20.94: 0.93, the maximum concentration of oxygen in the mixed gas after separation was 20.94 ÷ (20.94 + 0.93) × 100% = 95.75%. The carbon-based molecular sieve is a velocity separation type adsorbent with a microporous structure, and realizes gas separation by separating gas molecules with different diameters. In the equipment for preparing nitrogen by using compressed air, because the nitrogen in the compressed air accounts for about 78 percent and the oxygen accounts for about 21 percent, the carbon-based molecular sieves are applied to a large quantity of nitrogen-making devices and are not applied to small quantity of oxygen-making devices, and the ideal cost performance is obtained. If oxygen-argon mixed gas with the oxygen content of 93-95 percent is introduced into the carbon-based molecular sieve, separation of oxygen molecules and argon molecules is carried out, so that the preparation of high-purity oxygen becomes theoretically possible; however, the numerical range of the micropore diameter of the molecular sieve is selected, how to optimize the step sequence and parameters of the separation process and how to economically and efficiently improve the oxygen purity from 93 percent to 99.5 percent becomes a problem to be found and solved on site.
