What preparations need to be made for pressure test of complete air separation equipment and pipeline system
Sep 09, 2021
Author: DEAR AST

The equipment requiring pressure test for air separation equipment and pipeline system shall be carried out according to its own technical requirements. Before the pressure test, the pipe butt weld shall be inspected as qualified according to the standard requirements. All safety valves and automatic valve position holes in switching process shall be blocked with blind plates.

 

The pressure test preparation has the following requirements:

 

  1. l) Dry oil-free compressed air source;

 

  2) After verification, the accuracy is not lower than grade 1.5, and there are not less than 2 pressure gauges for pressure test with a range of 1.5-2 times the maximum measured pressure;

 

  3) Pipe sections and equipment shall be segmented according to different pressure test pressures, and each section of instruments participating in pressure test shall be isolated or removed with blind plates;

 

  4) The valve in the pressure test section is closed, and the inlet and outlet sections are closed with blind flanges.

 

Basic provisions: the test pressure shall be determined according to the pressure test procedures. If it is unclear, it shall be determined according to 1.15 times of the pipeline design pressure (the water pressure is generally 1.25 times). When boosting, first increase the pressure to 50% of the test pressure, check whether there is leakage, and if so, relieve the pressure and repair welding. After that, increase the test pressure by 10% each time, stop for 3min, increase the test pressure by 5 times, close the inlet valve and stabilize the pressure for 10min. If there is no leakage and deformation, the strength test is qualified. Then depressurize to the design pressure, check whether there is leakage point, and the pressure holding time shall be implemented according to the pressure test procedures and regulations. If the leakage rate does not exceed 5%, that is, the residual rate should reach more than 95%, it is qualified for pressure test.

The liquefaction of gases can be divided into forward and reverse cycles. The forward cycle process is the absorption of heat from the higher temperature external heat source and the release of heat to the lower temperature external heat source. The reverse cycle is when the mass draws heat from a lower temperature external heat source and releases it to a higher temperature external heat source. The forward cycle converts heat energy into mechanical energy and the reverse cycle converts mechani...

Distillation is using the different boiling points of the two substances to condense the mixed steam and vaporize the mixed liquid repeatedly to achieve gas separation. For a mixed liquid composed of two substances with different boiling points, when the heat absorption part evaporates, the volatile components will evaporate more, while the mixed steam will give off heat and partially condense, the non volatile components will condense more. If the saturated steam with higher temperature is mixed with the saturated liquid with lower temperature, the steam will release heat and partially condense, and the liquid will absorb heat part of it evaporates. If after a round of partial evaporation and partial condensation, the steam and liquid with higher concentration will contact with the steam and liquid with different temperature respectively, and then partial condensation and partial evaporation will occur again. This process will be repeated for many times, and finally gas separation
