Abstract

PROCEDIMIENTO PARA LA PRODUCCION DE NITROGENO A PARTIR DE AIRE.CONSISTE EN ENFRIAR Y DESTILAR UN SUMINISTRO DE AIRE CON PRESION SUPERIOR A LA ATMOSFERICA PARA PRODUCIR UNA CORRIENTE DE VAPOR RICA EN NITROGENO Y UN RESIDUO LIQUIDO QUE CONTIENE OXIGENO; RECUPERAR UNA PRIMERA PARTE DEL VAPOR, COMO GAS NITROGENO PRODUCTO; CONDENSAR UNA SEGUNDA PARTE DEL VAPOR POR INTERCAMBIO DE CALOR INDIRECTO CON RESIDUO LIQUIDO QUE CONTIENE OXIGENO, PARA PROPORCIONAR REFLUJO PARA LA DESTILACION; Y PROPORCIONAR REFRIGERACION PARA EL PROCESO MEDIANTE EXPANSION CON PRODUCCION DE TRABAJO DEL LIQUIDO QUE CONTIENE OXIGENO EVAPORADO EXPANDIDO CON PRODUCCION DE TRABAJO. COMPRENDE ADEMAS DESTILAR PERIODICAMENTE MENOS QUE LA TOTALIDAD DEL AIRE QUE ES SUMINISTRADO A LA PRESION SUPERIOR A LA ATMOSFERICA Y EXPANDIR CON PRODUCCION DE TRABAJO UNA CORRIENTE DE AIRE A PRESION SUPERIOR A LA ATMOSFERICA, CON LO QUE SE PRODUCE LA REFRIGERACION ADICIONAL, Y RECUPERAR EL VALOR DE NITROGENO CONDENSADO.
