Abstract

Titre : Procédé et appareil de séparation d’un gaz riche en oxygène produit par électrolyse Dans un procédé de séparation d’un gaz riche en oxygène (5) produit par électrolyse (E) contenant de l’eau et de l’hydrogène, l’eau est enlevée par une étape d’adsorption (P) pour produire un débit séché et le débit séché est séparé par distillation cryogénique (BF2) pour produire un fluide riche en oxygène et appauvri en hydrogène (15) et un débit enrichi en hydrogène (13). Figure de l’abrégé : Fig. 1Title: Process and apparatus for separating an oxygen-rich gas produced by electrolysis In a process for separating an oxygen-rich gas (5) produced by electrolysis (E) containing water and hydrogen, the Water is removed by an adsorption step (P) to produce a dried flow and the dried flow is separated by cryogenic distillation (BF2) to produce an oxygen-rich, hydrogen-depleted fluid (15) and a hydrogen-enriched flow (13).
