Abstract

Det er beskrevet en fremgangsmåte og apparat for fremstilling av et høyrent nitrogendampprodukt fra rektifisering av luft i høy-og lavtrykkskolonner (24, 26), operativt forbundet til hverandre ved en kondensa-tor/koker. Høytrykkskolonnen (24) innbefatter en tilstrekkelig antall teoretiske trinn til å danne en høyren nitrogendamp som deretter kondenseres 1 kondensatoren/kokeren og virker til delvis å kondensere en nitrogendamptoppstrøm med lavere renhet dannet i lavtrykkskolonnen (26) via indirekte varmeveksling. Den kondenserte høyrene nitrogendampen blir i det minste delvis fordampet og anvendes som en produkt-strøm. Siden det ikke er noen direkte varmeveksling med det høyrene nitrogenet dannet i høytrykkskolonnen (24) og nitrogendampen med lavere renhet dannet i lavtrykkskolonnen (26), kan lavtrykkskolonnen (26) innbefatte færre teoretiske trinn og kan derfor bygges rimligere enn tilsvarende kjente luftseparasjonsanlegg.
