本発明は、ガス分離における前処理として、水分および
C02を吸着するガス分屋における前処理装置に関する
ものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a pretreatment device in a gas branch that adsorbs moisture and CO2 as a pretreatment in gas separation.
従来の装置は、例えば特開昭58−214771号記載
のように、再生が終了した吸着塔の加圧風量が予定値に
なるように流量制御することにより、装置内の圧力変動
を抑制していた。しかし、このような制御をしても、再
生時において吸着塔内は大気圧となっており、これをl
O分程度の加圧時間内で吸着圧力まで加圧することによ
って0゜2〜0.3Kg/dの圧力変動が生じていた。Conventional equipment suppresses pressure fluctuations within the equipment by controlling the flow rate so that the pressurized air volume of the adsorption tower after regeneration reaches a predetermined value, as described in JP-A-58-214771, for example. Ta. However, even with this kind of control, the inside of the adsorption tower remains at atmospheric pressure during regeneration, and this
Pressurizing to the adsorption pressure within a pressurizing time of about 0 minutes caused a pressure fluctuation of 0.2 to 0.3 kg/d.
この圧力変動は後工程でのガス分離に悪影響を与え、例
えば上述の圧力変動によって製品N2の組成の変動が約
0.1−0.3 ppmQ2あった。また、この切換時
必要となる加圧ガス量(パージロス)は、原料空気量の
5〜7%程度必要となり、その分製品の原単位を悪くし
ていた。This pressure fluctuation had an adverse effect on gas separation in the subsequent process, and for example, the above-mentioned pressure fluctuation caused a fluctuation in the composition of the product N2 by about 0.1-0.3 ppmQ2. Further, the amount of pressurized gas (purge loss) required at the time of this switching is about 5 to 7% of the amount of raw material air, which worsens the unit consumption of the product.
上記従来技術は、切換時の加圧ガス盟が多く必要なこと
により、装置の圧力変動が大きいという問題があり、パ
ージロスも大きいという問題な残している。The above-mentioned conventional technology has the problem of large pressure fluctuations in the device due to the need for a large number of pressurized gas channels at the time of switching, and still has the problem of large purge loss.
本発明の目的は、従来技術による表面の圧力変動を大幅
に改善することにある。The aim of the invention is to significantly improve surface pressure fluctuations according to the prior art.
再生工程のための脱圧な行う吸着塔と吸着工程のための
加圧を行う吸着塔を均圧することにより、原料空気によ

工程のための脱圧な行う吸着塔と吸着工程のための加圧
を行う吸着塔との均圧運転を可能とした。By equalizing the pressure of the adsorption tower that depressurizes for the regeneration process and the adsorption tower that pressurizes for the adsorption process, the amount of pressurized gas due to feed air can be reduced by about 50%, and the basic unit can also be improved. . Therefore, in the present invention, a conduit that communicates the outlet of each adsorption tower with the inlet or outlet of another tower;
A valve was installed in the middle of each conduit to enable equal pressure operation between the adsorption tower that depressurizes the regeneration process and the adsorption tower that pressurizes the adsorption process.
従来技術の切換チャートの例を第2図に、本発明の切換
チャートの例を第3図に示す。An example of a conventional switching chart is shown in FIG. 2, and an example of a switching chart of the present invention is shown in FIG.
従来技術では、例えば15分切換の場合、吸着圧力(約
6に9/cr!t)から再生圧力(大気圧)までの脱圧
が約5分、また加圧が約10分であり3塔を順次切換え
て使用されていた。In the conventional technology, for example, in the case of a 15-minute changeover, it takes about 5 minutes to depressurize from the adsorption pressure (about 6 to 9/cr!t) to the regeneration pressure (atmospheric pressure), and about 10 minutes to pressurize, which requires 3 towers. It was used by switching sequentially.
しかし、各基の加圧時間と他塔の脱圧時間とが一致しな
いため均圧工程を設けられない。本発明では、これを第
3図のようにした。すなわち、例えば15分切換えの場
合、吸着時間は20分とし、内2塔使用時間を10分、
単独使用時間を10分とす・る。また、脱圧時間は5分

は10分とし、内2分は他より加圧する均圧時間、残り
8分は約31’q/cflより約6 匂/1fflまで
原料空気により加圧する加圧時間とした。However, the pressure equalization step cannot be provided because the pressurization time of each group and the depressurization time of other columns do not match. In the present invention, this is done as shown in FIG. That is, for example, in the case of a 15-minute changeover, the adsorption time is 20 minutes, and the usage time of two towers is 10 minutes,
The individual use time is 10 minutes. In addition, the depressurization time is 5 minutes, of which 2 minutes is the pressure equalization time to pressurize other columns, and the remaining 3 minutes is the depressurization time from about 3 Kp/crI to atmospheric pressure.The pressurization time is 10 minutes. The remaining 8 minutes were a pressure equalization time in which the pressure was increased more than the rest, and the remaining 8 minutes were a pressure application time in which the pressure was increased from about 31'q/cfl to about 6 odor/1ffl using raw air.
したがって加圧に使用する原料空気の量を約半分にでき
、装置への圧力変動および原単位を改善できる。なお吸
着塔自体の負荷は従来と変りなく仕様的には同じものが
使用可能である。Therefore, the amount of raw material air used for pressurization can be approximately halved, and pressure fluctuations to the equipment and unit consumption can be improved. Note that the load on the adsorption tower itself is the same as in the past, and the same specifications can be used.
以下、本発明を具体的な実施例である第1図によって詳

15分毎の切替えがなされる場合について説明する。Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to FIG. 1, which is a specific embodiment. FIG. 1 shows an example of a three-column type, and here, a case will be described in which switching is performed every 15 minutes.

On the other hand, as the regeneration gas, the remaining impure nitrogen gas at almost atmospheric pressure, which is obtained by collecting nitrogen, oxygen, and argon as products in the post-process cryogenic separator, is used. Adsorption tower 8c (or 8
a, sb). The moisture and CO2 adsorbed here are released into the atmosphere through the valve 4c (or 4a, 4b) after being regenerated. On the other hand, the regeneration is completed and the adsorption tower 8b (or 8c, 8a) is placed in P8 which has been pressurized to the adsorption pressure.
After the predetermined switching time (15 minutes) has passed, the large outlet valve 1b (or Ic, iaL outlet valve 2b (or +!2c, 2a)

められる。Adsorb the two towers of B tower at the same time (5 minutes). As soon as the regeneration process of the C tower is completed, the pressure equalization valve 7a (or 7b, 7c) is opened to equalize the pressure of the A tower and the C tower to about 3 Kq/i (for 2 minutes). After pressure equalization, the A tower is operated by pressure relief valve 6a (or 6b, sc)
After opening the column and depressurizing the inside of the column to atmospheric pressure, the column is prepared for the next regeneration step.
) to approximately 6 K9/d. The amount of gas during this pressurization step is adjusted by a pressurized gas amount controller 9 to minimize pressure fluctuations in the apparatus. Note that in the pressure equalization and depressurization steps in which the regeneration gas does not flow, the impure nitrogen gas continuously discharged from the cryogenic separator is regulated by the pressure regulator 10 and released into the atmosphere by the valve 11. The above process is
The switching is performed sequentially for each group as shown in the switching chart shown in FIG.
以上に述べたように各塔出口と他塔入口とを連通する導
管と、各導管途中に均圧弁7a+7b。As described above, there are conduits that communicate the outlet of each column with the inlet of another column, and pressure equalization valves 7a and 7b in the middle of each conduit.

Kq/crd was boosted in 10 minutes, but
It is sufficient to increase the pressure from 3 to 6 s/crIl in 8 minutes. This indicates that the ratio of feed air mfm can be approximately 60%, that is, (3/8)/(6/I O) 0

ることになる。In other words, in the case of a fixed displacement compressor, it is possible to reduce fluctuations in the amount of purified air sent to the cryogenic separator, reduce pressure fluctuations, and obtain stable product purity. Furthermore, in consideration of this variation, a compressor that was 6 to 8 inches larger than the rated raw air capacity was previously required, but it is now possible to downsize the compressor.
