Abstract

PURPOSE: To control the amount of sampling nitrogen gas according to the fluctuations in demand, by detecting the pressure of product nitrogen gas, and by regulating the quantity of liquefied air to be introduced into a condensing evaporator from the bottom part of a single rectifying column, and the quantity of the product nitrogen gas by this detection signal. CONSTITUTION: The pressure inside a gas collecting conduit 24 that is generated by the fluctuations in demand of product nitrogen gas PN is detected by a pressure indication regulator 25, and the quantity of liquefied air LA to be introduced into a condensing evaporator 5 is controlled by the detection signal 29, so as to control the quantity of the liquefied air LA that performs heat exchanges by the condensing evaporator 5, namely the quantity of liquefying the nitrogen gas GN. Therefore, the quantity and pressure of the product nitrogen gas PN can be the optimum values. Moreover, a nitrogen gas sampling valve 21 is controlled by the detection signal 29 according to the pressure of the product nitrogen gas PN, and the pressure that is necessary for the nitrogen gas GN to be condensed by the condensing evaporator 5 can be maintained. Further, the product nitrogen gas PN according to the fluctuations in demand can be sampled without deteriorating the efficiency of separation.
