Minimum gas-liquid ratio in liquid air separation plant

Minimum gas-liquid ratio in liquid air separation plant

In fact, reflux ratio is a conventional saying. In practical calculation, it is divided into liquid gas ratio in distillation section and gas-liquid ratio in stripping section. The minimum reflux ratio is of course the same. When the number of trays and reflux ratio determine the purity of distillation products, the actual meaning is that the gas-liquid ratio of the stripping section and the number of trays in the stripping section determine the purity of high boiling point distillation products. The purity of low boiling point products is determined by the ratio of liquid to gas and the number of plates in the distillation section.

 

Now take the minimum gas-liquid ratio of the stripping section as an example to illustrate the calculation of the minimum reflux ratio. First, let's explain what the minimum gas-liquid ratio means. The first is infinite plate number, the second is pure high boiling point product, and the third is infinitesimal distillation driving force. It can be concluded from the above situation that the composition of the rising gas at the bottom of the stripping section is pure high boiling component without low boiling component, and the composition of the gas phase and liquid phase at the top of the stripping section is the composition of the distillation raw material and its equilibrium liquid phase.

Answer: select the small cryogenic air separation unit with argon, and give priority to verifying the real continuous operation performance of the unit with argon below 1000nm ³/h, avoiding the scheme with only drawings and no long-term operation record. Key dimensions of model selection: 1. operation performance: it is confirmed that the manufacturer has a long-term stable production case of small flow air separation with argon. Deere air separation small-scale hydrogen free total distillation argon extraction air separation, supports scale customization below 1000nm ³/h, and is equipped with intelligent control system, with mature landing performance. 2. power consumption per unit liquid argon

Answer: the default unit gauge pressure is MPa (g), and the mainstream is cryogenic full low pressure external compression process. Design pressure of conventional energy-saving models in the industry: 0.50~0.55 MPa (g); The lower limit of stability of ordinary process is about 0.45 MPa (g). In general, it is not recommended to be lower than 0.42 MPa (g) for a long time in the conventional scheme. If the pressure is too low, there will be risks such as poor heat exchange in the precooling tower, insufficient purification of molecular sieve, difficult to balance the cooling capacity, and the air compressor close to the surge area. The internal compressed air is distributed with a booster. The main air compressor is mostly 0.55~0.65 MPa (g), and the lower limit is mostly 0.50 MPa (g), which is difficult to achieve below 0.45MPa (g). Deere air separation ultra-low discharge pressure patented energy-saving external compression air separation, through the collaborative optimization of the w
