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.

Regulation of liquid nitrogen throttle valveThe opening of the liquid nitrogen throttle valve not only affects the reflux ratio of the upper tower, but also affects the reflux ratio of the lower tower. When the opening is increased, the reflux ratio of the upper tower increases, while the reflux ratio of the lower tower decreases, the purity of the nitrogen in the upper tower increases, and the purity of the oxygen enriched night sky in the lower tower increases. However, after the opening is over, the purity of the liquid nitrogen decreases, and the reduction of the reflux ratio of the upper tower is also detrimental to the improvement of the purity of the liquid oxygen. Therefore, an equilibrium point should be found for the opening of the liquid nitrogen throttle valve. We can generally use the purity difference between liquid nitrogen and gas nitrogen to judge whether the opening is appropriate. Generally, the purity of the sprayed liquid nitrogen is equal to that of the upper towe

In the field of air separation, entropy is the core thermodynamic parameter to measure the energy quality and irreversibility of the system, which directly determines the energy consumption level and operation efficiency of the unit. Entropy, with the symbol s, is essentially a measure of the degree of chaos and energy unavailability of a system, in kj/(kg ・ K). The second law of thermodynamics clearly states that the total entropy of an isolated system only increases but does not decrease, that is, the principle of entropy increase. The higher the entropy, the lower the energy quality, and the more difficult it is to convert into cold energy or useful work; The smaller the entropy, the more orderly the energy, and the more sufficient the available energy. The essence of air separation unit is the combination of cryogenic refrigeration and distillation separation, and the whole process is closely related to entropy. The ideal reversible process is an isentropic process, and the entropy
