- Rich liquid 25, poor liquid 61 and possibly a liquid 27 close to liquid air are sent from the medium pressure column 15 to the low pressure column 17 as reflux flow rates after subcooling in exchanger 29.
- a flow of liquid oxygen 33 is withdrawn from the low pressure column, pressurized by the pump 35 and vaporized in the vaporizer 13 upstream of the exchange line 11.
- the compression of the fluid 33 can also be done by a hydrostatic head, without the pump 35.
- Low pressure nitrogen 31 is withdrawn at the top of the low pressure column 17 and is heated in the exchangers 29, 11.
- a medium pressure nitrogen gas flow 39 is withdrawn at the top of the medium pressure column 15 and divided into two. Part 53 is sent to an upper vaporizer 23 of the low pressure column 17 where it condenses before being returned to the medium pressure column as reflux. The rest of the air is again divided in two. A fraction is sent to the cold compressor 151 to become the flow 155, the flow 155 is cooled in the exchange line 11 before serving to heat the intermediate vaporizer 21 before being sent to the columns as reflux. The rest of the nitrogen 41 is divided in two, a portion 43 is sent to a cold compressor 51 to form a flow 55, this flow 55 is sent to the vessel vaporizer 19 of the low pressure column 17, after having cooled in the exchange line 11.
- this vaporizer 19 it condenses and then serves as reflux for at least one of the columns.
- the rest of the nitrogen is sent to the exchange line, warms to an intermediate level and is divided in two.
- a portion 49 of the nitrogen 45 is sent to a turbine 47.
- the nitrogen expanded in the turbine 47 is sent to the cold end of the exchange line and heats up before serving to periodically regenerate the purification unit 2
- the remainder of the nitrogen 46 continues its heating in the exchange line 11 and is divided in two, a portion 149 being sent to a turbine 147 with a higher inlet temperature than the turbine 47.
- This part of the Nitrogen is relaxed, warmed up and sent to the atmosphere.
- the remainder 249 of the nitrogen is sent to a turbine 247 with a higher inlet temperature than the turbines 47, 147. This portion 249 of the nitrogen is expanded, heated and sent to the atmosphere.
