Air sent to the upper column for expansion

Air sent to the upper column for expansion

Author: DEAR AST

The gas and liquid on the upper tray are saturated, so it is better that the expanded air sent to the upper tray is also saturated, even with a small amount of liquid. However, due to the limitation of the structure of the expander, the air can not reach the saturation state at the outlet of the expander, and no liquid can be produced, otherwise the expander will have a liquid hammer accident, causing damage to the expander, so there is a certain degree of superheat in the expansion air sent to the upper column.

Air separation unit is a kind of unit that takes air as raw material, transforms air into liquid by low temperature cryogenic method which compresses and circulates air, and then gradually separates oxygen, nitrogen, argon and other inert gases from liquid air by distillation. At present, the air separation unit produced in China has many forms and types. There are unit for the production of gaseous oxygen and nitrogen, as well as unit for the production of liquid oxygen and nitrogen. However, there are four types of basic processes: high pressure, medium pressure and low pressure, and full low pressure process. The production scale of air separation unit in China has developed from the original oxygen generator which can only produce 20m³/ h (oxygen) to the current large-scale air production capacity of 20000 m³/ h, 30000 m³/ h and 50000 m³/ h (oxygen). The air separation unit can be divided into 5 basic systems in terms of process 1. Impurity purification system: the mechani
