Abstract

EL AIRE DEL QUE SE HA EXTRAIDO DIOXIDO DE CARBONO Y AGUA ES SOMETIDO A UNA DESTILACION FRACCIONAL EN UNA PRIMERA COLUMNA (4) PARA FORMAR VAPOR DE OXIGENO-NITROGENO Y OXIGENO ENRIQUECIDO CON ARGON; EL ARGON ES SEPARADO DE ESTE ULTIMO EN UNA SEGUNDA COLUMNA (10) QUE OPERA A MENOR PRESION QUE LA PRIMERA; UNA PARTE DEL VAPOR DE NITROGENO ES LICUADA EN UN CICLO QUE INCLUYE UN INTERCAMBIO DE CALOR CON EL AIRE QUE ENTRA Y UNA COMPRESION A UNA PRESION POR ENCIMA DE LA EXISTENTE EN LA PRIMERA COLUMNA (4), Y UNA PARTE DEL NITROGENO LIQUIDO ES TOMADO COMO PRODUCTO Y UNA SEGUNDA PARTE ES DEVUELTA A LA PRIMERA COLUMNA (4) COMO REFLUJO. EL OXIGENO LIQUIDO Y EL VAPOR DE NITROGENO DE LA PRIMERA COLUMNA SON MEZCLADOS EN UNA COLUMNA DE CONTACTO LIQUIDO-VAPOR (14), SIENDO EXTRAIDO DE LA MISMA EL NITROGENO IMPURO Y UTILIZADO COMO REFLUJO EN LA PRIMERA COLUMNA (4). UNA CORRIENTE DE OXIGENO-NITROGENO ES EXTRAIDA DE LA COLUMNA (14) Y EXPANDIDA PARA CREAR REFRIGERACION PARA EL SISTEMA.
