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.

In medium and large air separation plants, the purification system is an important part when separating oxygen, nitrogen and argon from air. The purification system commonly uses molecular sieve adsorbent to adsorb moisture, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, etc. in the air. The molecular sieve purification system plays an important role in the air separation equipment process to ensure safety. The molecular sieve purification system is generally composed of adsorber, electric heater, pipeline, val...

When the exhaust temperature of the piston compressor is higher than the design value, the most direct impact is that the lubricating oil is carbonized, which leads to the compressor parts burned out because of not getting good lubrication. If the temperature of the compressor is too high during actual operation, the cause should be analyzed in time and corresponding preventive measures should be taken. The following methods can be used for reference in practice. 1. Reducing the inlet air temperature can directly reduce the exhaust temperature. Check the intercooler to ensure the cooling effect of the intercooler. 2. The installation of the valve and the selection of the spring should be standardized to ensure the normal operation of the valve and minimize the loss of inlet and outlet pressure. 3. Strengthen the cooling of cylinder to ensure the normal compression process index. 4. Internal leakage is the main reason for the increase of exhaust temperature. 5.For multist
