When the air is out of the air compressor, due to the compression, the moisture in the air is in the saturated state. After the water cooling column decreasing the temperature, the water content in the saturated state decreases, and the excess water condenses into the water. The water volume in the air cooling column increases and the water temperature rises. But not only is the temperature of the air reduced, but also the moisture content of the air. In the water cooling column, the crude nitrogen is used to cool the water. After passing through the main heat exchanger from the fractionator, the temperature of the crude nitrogen is close to the normal temperature, but it is very dry. The dry crude nitrogen contacts with the water, and a large amount of water is evaporated into the crude nitrogen by using the unsaturation of the crude nitrogen, which absorbs the heat of the water and reduces the water temperature.

Cryogenic air separation nitrogen production uses air as raw material, which is compressed, purified and heat exchanged to liquefy gas air into liquid air. Liquid air is mainly a mixture of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen have different boiling points and are separated by distillation to obtain nitrogen. 1. Air compression and purification The air passes through the air strainer to remove dust and mechanical impurities, then enters the air compressor, compresses to the required pressure, and then goes to the air cooler to reduce the air temperature. It then enters the air drying purifier to remove moisture, carbon dioxide, acetylene and other hydrocarbons from the air. 2. Air separation The purified air enters the main heat exchanger in the air separation column, and is cooled to the saturation temperature by the reflux gas (production nitrogen gas, waste gas), and is sent to the bottom of the distillation column. The nitrogen is obtained fr
