Definitions
- First and second portions of air are cooled by separated air fractlons, recombined and then throttled while the third portion of air is cooled by separated air fraction, work expanded and then combined with the throttled air and introduced into a rectification column.
- Liquid oxygen from the column is heat exchanged with gaseous nitrogen exiting the column after which the oxygen is pressurized in a jacketed oxygen pump. A portion of the nitrogen from the oxygen heat exchange passes through the pump jacket after which the nitrogen is used to regenerate the absorber.
- This invention relates to methods of producing oxygen from air by low-temperature rectification in a med umpressure cycle, comprising expanding a part of the an m an expander, pumping of the liquid oxygen to a heat exchanger where it is gasified, utilizing a part of the nitrogenleaving the rectification column for the regeneration of the purification unit adsorbent.
- air is compressed to 45 to 55 abs. atm., freed of moisture and carbon dioxide, cooled in a heat exchanger by the outgoing fractionation products from the rectification column, which are mtrogen and oxygen.
- a part of the air cooled in the heat exchanger to minus 100 C. is expanded in the expander.
- the other part of the air cooled in the heat exchanger is expanded in a throttle valve and mixed with the air leaving the expander.
- the resulting vapor-liquid mixture passes to the rectification column for fractionation.
- the nitrogen is utilized for cooling the liquid oxygen pump and is then fed to a heat exchanger where the nitrogen and the oxygen cool the incoming flow of initial compressed air.
- the nitrogen is divided into two parts, one of which, smaller in volume, is used for regenerating the purification unit adsorbent, and the other, larger in volume, passes through the nitrogenwater cooler, where it cools the initial compressed air, and thence to the atmosphere.
- the liquid oxygen is fed to the liquid oxygen pump, gasified in the heat exchanger and passed to the consumer.
- the gauge pressure of the nitrogen before entering the purification unit should be 0.1-0.2 atm.
- Another disadvantage of said method is that by dividing the nitrogen into two streams after the heat exchanger, the greater part thereof is discharged to the atmosphere with its excess pressure unutilized.
- Said objects have been accomplished by producing oxygen from air by the low-temperature rectification of air in a medium-pressure cycle wherein compressed air, preliminarily cooled and freed of moisture and carbon dioxide, is subjected to heat exchange with the outgoing fractionation products, and after expanding a portion of the air and throttling the rest, the two portions are mixed and sent to a rectification column for fractionation with subsequent removal of oxygen and nitrogen.
- part of the total flow of nitrogen leaving the rectification column is removed from the section between said column and the point of entry of the nitrogen into heat exchange with the air.
- the removed part is diverted to a heat exchanger in which said nitrogen exchanges heat with part of the initial air and the oxygen produced, after which it is used for the regeneration of the purification unit adsorbent.
- the rest of the outgoing nitrogen is utilized for cooling another portion of the initial compressed air.
- This invention possesses the following advantages over the prior art method described hereinabove: it enables utilization of the excess pressure of the rectification column for overcoming all resistances in the outgoing nitrogen lines and provides normal conditions for operation of the purification unit without requiring any additional expenditures.
- the pressure in both flows of nitrogen is varied within a preset range, making .it possible to use from 12 to 25% of the nitrogen for the regeneration of the purification unit adsorbent under the required gauge pressure and to pass the remaining to 88% of the nitrogen through the double-flow (air-nitrogen) heat exchanger at a lower pressure.
- the use of the present invention enables a reduction in the consumption of non-ferrous metals of up to 800 kg.
- the present method provides a cost reduction in production per cubic meter of oxygen.
- heat exchanger 6 the air is cooled by a counterfiow of nitrogen, while in heat exchanger 7, the air is cooled by counter-flows of nitrogen and oxygen.
- the nitrogen produced by the fractionation of air passes from rectification column 10 via conduit 13 to liquid oxygen supercoler 14 beyond which the greater portion of the nitrogen is diverted by regulating unit 15 via conduit 16 to heat exchanger 6 and, further, via conduit 17 to nitrogen-water cooler 2, and is thereafter expelled into the atmosphere.
- the other part of the nitrogen constituting a volume of from 12 to 25% passes via conduit 18 to the jacket of the liquid oxygen pump 19 for cooling the latter, and then via conduit 20 to heat exchanger 7 from which it flows via conduit 21 to purification unit 4 where it is used for regeneration of the adsorbent.
- Liquid oxygen passes from rectification column 10 via conduit 22 through liquid oxygen supercooler 14, liquid oxygen pump 19, and is gasified in heat exchanger 7 and then fed in the gaseous state via conduit 23 to the consumer.
- a method of separating compressed air to produce gaseous oxygen and gaseous nitrogen comprising freeing said compressed air of high-boiling impurities by adsorbing said impurities on an adsorbent, splitting the impurity free, compressed air into first, second and third portions, cooling the first of said air portions by heat exchange with the produced oxygen and gaseous nitrogen while cooling the second and third portions with produced gaseous nitrogen, subjecting the thus cooled third portion to work expansion, recombining the first portion of the air, after said heat exchange, with the second portion of the cooled air, throttling the thusly recombined first and second portions of the air, recombining the first, second and third air stream portions after expansion thereof and subjecting the combinedexpanded air to low-temperature rectification to obtain liquid oxygen and gaseous nitrogen, supercooling the liquid oxygen by heat exchange with the gaseous nitrogen from the rectification column, compressing the supercoled liquid oxygen in a pump whereby heat is evolied and abstracting the evolved heat
