Abstract

PROCEDIMIENTO PARA PRODUCIR NITROGENO CON UNA PUREZA Y UN RENDIMIENTO RELATIVAMENTE ALTOS. CONSISTE EN LA RECTIFICACION CRIOGENICA DE AIRE EMPLEANDO ALIMENTACIONES DEFINIDAS MULTIPLES SOBRE UNA COLUMNA DE RECTIFICACION INDIVIDUAL QUE FUNCIONA A UNA PRESION ENTRE 2,45 Y 10,15 KG/CM, Y EN QUE EL AIRE DE ALIMENTACION ES SEPARADO EN VAPOR RICO EN NITROGENO Y LIQUIDO ENRIQUECIDO EN OXIGENO. EL PROCEDIMIENTO QUE SE REIVINDICA EVITA LA NECESIDAD DE TENER QUE RECICLAR EL NITROGENO SEPARADO.
