Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for cryogenic decomposition of air for the production of oxygen and / or nitrogen and / or argon according to the features of the preamble of claims 1 and 5.
  • An argon-enriched side stream is used to obtain argon product Low pressure column in a crude argon column in counterflow to liquid by means of conventional rectifiers in raw argon and in a liquid residual fraction disassembled.
  • the gaseous oxygen, nitrogen and Argon products can be external using conventional Compressors can be compressed to the required pressure.
  • the oxygen, nitrogen and Argon products (LOX, LAN, LAR) can, however, be internally compressed on the desired pressure can be brought by being drawn off in liquid form Conveyor (such as centrifugal or piston pumps) on the brought necessary pressure and by heat exchange with process streams, such as preferably by means of cleaned, pre-cooled and to the necessary pressure level compressed process air, evaporated.
  • the process air liquefied by internal compression in the air separation plant is no longer available as a buoyant gas in the pressure column of the rectification column Available, which increases the effectiveness of the separation process in the rectification column reduced and thus the economy of the air separation plant is reduced.
  • the nitrogen yield in the pressure column is among others process-specific and equipment-related factors, such as the number, design and arrangement of the rectifying devices, in particular of which in the rectification devices above the Air inlet area in the pressure column adjusting thermodynamic Balance, dependent.
  • thermodynamic Losses especially those associated with throttling Flash evaporation, on. These thermodynamic losses occur through additional energy consumption in the compression of the cleaned process air noticeable.
  • the air separation plant becomes both gaseous and liquid products deducted and is further a certain flexibility in the production of Liquid products (LOX, LIN, LAR) are required, the outlet temperatures change of the process streams cooled in the heat exchange network, whereby either additional losses occur in the production of liquid products or only limited operation of the relaxation device (Expansion turbine) is possible.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, a method and a To provide a device for the low-temperature separation of air, which an oxygen and / or nitrogen and / or argon recovery with higher Product yields with reduced energy consumption and flexible plant operation guaranteed.
  • the air is at a pressure which is only slightly above the Operating pressure of the pressure column of the rectification is compressed and by the Cooling or rectification-disturbing ingredients, such as water vapor, Hydrocarbons or nitrous oxide, exempt.
  • the second partial air flow is through indirect heat exchange with evaporating Bottom product of the pressure column to a temperature that is about 1.5 to 2.5 degrees Kelvin is above the bottom temperature of the pressure column, cooled further.
  • the pre-cooled second partial flow of air is from the Pressure column deducted and connected in one of the pressure column Relaxation device (expansion turbine) working except for the Pressure level of the pressure column relaxed.
  • the relaxed, mostly liquefied partial air flow is in the pressure and / or after relaxation to the operating pressure of the low pressure column in the same fed in and further dismantled in a known manner.
  • the advantage of this low-temperature separation of air according to the invention is in the fact that regardless of the respective driving case or driving style Air separation plant the work-relaxing device (Expansion turbine) safely operated to relax the second partial air flow can be.
  • Another significant advantage of the invention is that additional buoyancy steam generated below the lower separation stage in the pressure column of the rectification and making the thermodynamic equilibrium in the pressure column so advantageous is changed, the nitrogen yield in the pressure column is increased.
  • the higher nitrogen yield achieved in the pressure column according to the invention increases the effectiveness of the low pressure column and any downstream one Argon rectification and thus enables economical low-temperature reduction of air with higher product yields with reduced Power consumption.
  • the invention further relates to a device for performing the The inventive method with a two-stage rectification column, the pressure and Low pressure column through a condenser / evaporator in heat exchanging Connected, a Rohargonklale, a heat exchange network and one Expansion device (expansion turbine), which can be Product lines equipped with control, regulation and conveyor systems are interconnected.
  • the low-temperature decomposition of air according to the invention is in particular also for exclusive oxygen production and for exclusive nitrogen production suitable.
  • Air 1 to be rectified is compressed in a compressor 2 to a pressure which is only slightly higher than the operating pressure of a pressure column 7 and is then cleaned in an adsorption dryer 3 of undesired ingredients.
  • a first partial stream 4 of the compressed and cleaned air 1 is cooled in a heat exchanger network 5 by indirect heat exchange in countercurrent with a vaporous product stream 6 drawn off from a low pressure column 11 down to a temperature range of the dew point of the air 1.
  • the predominantly gaseous partial stream 4 of the air 1 which has been pretreated in this way is fed directly below the rectifying devices into the pressure column 7 and is broken down there in a known manner into an oxygen-rich bottom liquid 8 and an oxygen-poor gaseous top product.
  • a second partial flow 9 of the compressed and cleaned air 1 becomes one further compressor 10 supplied.
  • the partial flow 9 of the air 1 compressed in the compressor 10 to a pressure level suitable for the evaporation of the 12 liquid oxygen product 13 drawn off from the pressure column and then conveyed to the desired product pressure level is then countercurrent in the heat exchange network 5 by indirect heat exchange with one from the low pressure column 11 withdrawn and pumped liquid sump product 13 cooled to the temperature range of the dew point of the air and fed into a sump evaporator 14 of the pressure column 7 and cooled by indirect heat exchange with evaporating bottom liquid 8 to a temperature which is about 1.5 to 2.5 degrees Kelvin above the temperature of the bottom liquid 8 of the pressure column 7.
  • the partial stream 9a cooled in this way is fed into an expansion device (expansion turbine) 15 connected downstream of the pressure column 7 and is expanded in this work-performing manner to the pressure level of the pressure column 7.
  • the now predominantly liquid partial flow 9b of air 1 is in the range of conventional rectifiers in the pressure and / or low pressure column 7,11 fed in and rectified in a known manner, the partial stream 9b before it is fed into the low-pressure column 11 to the operating pressure of the Low pressure column 11 is throttled.
