Where is the air separation unit used

There are mainly the following factors that affect the output of oxygen: 1) insufficient processing air volume. The reasons for the shortage of air volume include: ① the ambient temperature is too high; ② the atmospheric pressure is too low; ③ the air suction filter is blocked; ④ the low voltage or the frequency of the power grid will reduce the rotating speed; ⑤ the cooling effect of intermediate cooler is not good; ⑥ internal leakage exists between levels; ⑦ air leakage of valve and pipeline, and leakage of automatic valve or switching valve; ⑧ for the purification process of molecular sieve, it may be the air leakage of switching butterfly valve. 2) the average purity of nitrogen is too low. The reasons are: ① the efficiency of the distillation column is reduced; ② the expansion air volume is too large due to too much cold loss; ③ the purity of liquid nitrogen is too low and the liquid nitrogen volume is too large; ④ the liquid nitrogen volume is too small; ⑤ leakage of liquid ai...

After the air separation equipment stops, when the equipment does not discharge liquid, the basic temperature of the cold box will be reduced to more than - 100C in many cases. Most air separation plant users customers concern about this situation which will lead to a illusion of equipment leakage for the sake of safety.
