With the rapid development of national economy, the growth of economic scale and the adjustment of national industrial structure, the application field of air separation unit is also extending, and the main targets of the market are also increasing and changing. Especially in the following areas, the demand for oxygen and nitrogen products is increasing rapidly:
Metallurgical Industry: Smelting and reducing ironmaking and smelting non-ferrous metals, which new process is environmental protection process, belongs to the national support object. The demand for oxygen and nitrogen products is very large, so with the maturity and promotion of smelting reduction process, the demand for large air separation unit is unimaginable.
Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC): This new process is known as green power generation. It is an environmental protection process, and belongs to the key support object of our country. A 250000 KW medium-sized generating unit needs a set of 46000m³/h type air separation unit.
Coal chemical industry: with the tight supply of oil in the world, Chinese coal to methanol, coal to dimethyl ether, coal to oil and coal to olefin technologies are developing at a high speed, and the demand for oxygen and nitrogen products is huge. A 600000 T / a methanol unit needs to be equipped with 80000m³/h oxygen, a set of 1 million T/Y coal to liquid unit will need 1000000 m³/h of oxygen gas. A 8000000 T/Y a coal to dimethyl ether unit needs to be equipped with 86000 m³/h of oxygen gas. A 300000 T/Y ammonia and methanol unit will be equipped with 80000m³/h of oxygen.
Chinese air separation market shows great potential, which gives enough space for the development of air separation unit and industrial gas. Today, Chinese air separation industry can compete with the world's air separation giants. In terms of manufacturing and design, DEAR Air Separation has obvious competitive advantages in the air separation industry.
