Air cooling column start-up process

Air cooling column start-up process

Author: DEAR AST

When the starts, it is necessary to ventilate before the water pump is started.

 

The pressure of air in the column before inflation is atmospheric pressure. When the air with pressure of 0.5MPa is introduced into the column, the pressure will suddenly decrease due to the expansion of volume and the air flow speed will increase rapidly, and its impact carrying effect is very strong. At this time, if the cooling water has been sprayed, the air is very easy to take water when it is out of the air cooling column. Therefore, it is required to inflate the column first, and start the water supply spray of the water pump after the pressure increases and the air flow is stable. Secondly, if the water pump is opened first, the water level in the air cooling column is too high, even exceeds the elevation of the air inlet pipe, the resistance of the outlet pipeline of the air compressor increases, which causes the turbine air compressor to surge.

Conventional liquid air separation plants are cooled by isothermal throttling refrigeration and expander refrigeration, LNG cold energy air separation eliminates the need for an expander and utilises the cooling capacity of LNG and isothermal throttling refrigeration. The air separation unit uses circulating nitrogen gas to liquefy into liquid nitrogen in a liquefier, which is fed into the lower tower, where the cold is transferred to the distillation system to pump the dirty liquid nitrogen thr...
