整するなどの方法がとらnでいた。The air content of conventional argon sampling is 11+! *The location is disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 116385/1985. In this type of apparatus, a crude argon column is installed to collect argon, but in order to stabilize the crude argon column, it is first necessary to stabilize the main rectification column, which is closely related to the argon column. For this reason, methods such as adjusting the amount of air supplied from the expansion turbine to the main rectification column depending on the amount of product oxygen and the amount of argon extracted have been available.

操作がむずかしく、調整に熟練を要していた。However, when adjusting the main rectification column and the crude argon column, it is difficult to adjust the pressure difference between the crude argon columns, the oxygen concentration pressure of the liquid air blown from the lower column of the main rectification column to the upper column, and the junction Due to the influence of fluctuations in the amount of reflux liquid when switching between Or, conversely, it may become an oxygen-rich zone, leading to unstable operation of the argon tower and a decrease in the argon recovery rate. Therefore, the argon sampling operation was difficult to operate and required skill to adjust.

ら主精留塔へ供給さjる空気量を自動的に調整し。The uninvented key point is that the saturation temperature of the rectifying column between the liquid air blowing stage of the main rectifying column and the crude argon column feed stage and the main condenser section is a factor that determines the feed gas composition to the crude argon column. A temperature detection unit is provided to manage the temperature difference, and a temperature difference controller automatically adjusts the bypass valve at the outlet of the expansion turbine so that the temperature difference between the saturation temperatures maintains the optimum temperature for the gas composition in the feed stage. From this, the amount of air supplied from the expansion turbine to the main rectification column is automatically adjusted.

In Figure 1, the raw material air exchanges heat with the return gas, which is the separated gas from the upper column 3 of the main rectification column, in an air heat exchanger 1 and is cooled to saturation temperature, after which most of the air is transferred to the lower column 2c of the main rectification column. Infused n
It is crudely rectified in the lower column and separated into liquid nitrogen and liquid air with a purity of 40%. On the other hand, the rest of the air cooled by the air heat exchanger 1 is drawn out from the middle of the air heat exchanger and adiabatically expanded by the expansion turbine 6, thereby doing work to the outside and compensating for the total cooling loss of the device. The air adiabatically expanded by the expansion turbine 6 is introduced into the main rectification column upper column 3, where it is distilled and separated. The liquid nitrogen that has been rectified and separated in the lower column 2 of the main rectification column is supplied to the upper column of the main rectification column as a reflux liquid. The remaining liquid air passes through the supercooler 4 and is supercooled by the separated waste gas from the upper tower, and then part of it is supplied as a reflux liquid to the upper tower, and the rest is heat exchanged in the condenser of the argon tower 5. While the feed gas is liquefied, it itself becomes a gas and is blown into the upper column where it is rectified and separated. Air is blown into the upper column 3 of the main rectification column.

出され精留分離して採取さ1.る。Liquid air and liquid nitrogen are separated by rectification to separate low-temperature gas, nitrogen, in the upper part of the upper column, and high-temperature gas, oxygen, in the lower part of the upper column. Argon is extracted from the feed stage in the middle of the upper column, which is located between the furnace element and oxygen and becomes argon-rich, into the crude argon column, and is collected by rectification and separation.1.

主精留塔内の組成変動を押え。The absolute condition for this is that the main rectification column is stabilized. The composition of the feed gas supplied from the upper column 3 of the main rectification column to the crude argon column 5 is strongly influenced by the operating conditions of the main rectification column. It depends on whether it can be reduced and stabilized. This change in composition causes the feed gas to become oxygen-rich or kiln-rich, resulting in a decrease in argon recovery rate, a decrease in oxygen purity, a decrease in crude argon column 5 condenser capacity, and a decrease in the differential pressure in crude argon column 5. Not only will it make equiargon extraction impossible, but it can also disturb the main rectifier. For this reason, during argon sampling operation,
Prevents compositional fluctuations within the main rectification column.

Temperature detection terminals 91 and 92 are provided between the air blowing stage a and the feed stage) and the main condenser section (oxygen extraction section) b, and the respective temperatures are detected by temperature detectors 01 and 102. A temperature difference controller 110 is provided to control the temperature difference between these two points to a predetermined constant value, and a bypass valve 80 at the outlet of the expansion turbine is automatically adjusted. Therefore, the amount of air blown into the upper column from the expansion turbine is automatically adjusted so that the feed gas composition is always constant, and the composition in the main rectification column, that is, the feed gas composition, is stabilized. Operation management becomes easier.

Stable operation management of the composition of the product was achieved, and operation became easier. Furthermore, the optimal purity position of the feed gas can be adjusted by setting the temperature difference.
A reliable and stable argon recovery operation is now possible.
