Internal compression air separation process is a process form in which liquid products are pressurized by liquid pump in the cold box, and then sent out of the cold box after reheating by high-pressure heat exchanger. The working pressure of internal compression process generally exceeds the critical point of oxygen and nitrogen. Heat transfer of liquid in supercritical state is a major feature of internal compression process. In the distillation process, due to the difference of product types and acquisition methods, there is a big difference between the material import and export of internal equipment and external compression process. In the internal compressed air separation process, the pressure of oxygen is not limited, the maximum output of nitrogen can reach 2.8 times of that of oxygen, and the extraction rate of argon can reach about 85%.
The internal compression air separation process is generally composed of internal compression system, air precooling system, molecular sie
