Safety measures for oxygen centrifugal compressors in large air separation units

Safety measures for oxygen centrifugal compressors in large air separation units
Apr 19, 2022
Author: DEAR AST

Oxygen is a strong oxidising gas, flammable and explosive, so safety measures should be taken in its design and manufacture. When choosing materials, all metals in contact with oxygen must be chemically stable and not easily oxidised. Each component should be degreased. The shaft seal should be sealed with nitrogen pressure difference and also ensure the vacuum of the oil system. All large air separation unit parts and pipings in contact with oxygen should be earthed to prevent static electricity. In addition, firewalls should be provided for oxygen unit piping and valves.

The Kaifeng Dear air separation overhaul management team, with accurate fault information and real-time warning of faults on site, can easily achieve real-time viewing and historical queries on product faults. By setting data such as upper and lower limit values and change rates for analogue quantities, the management team can generate timely warnings, and can split time and product statistics and export alarm summary reports. Alarm information includes product attributes, alarm generation time, alarm elimination time, alarm acknowledgement time, alarm acknowledgement person and other information.

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...

Cryogenic air separation nitrogen production uses air as raw material, which is compressed, purified and heat exchanged to liquefy gas air into liquid air. Liquid air is mainly a mixture of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen have different boiling points and are separated by distillation to obtain nitrogen. 1. Air compression and purification The air passes through the air strainer to remove dust and mechanical impurities, then enters the air compressor, compresses to the required pressure, and then goes to the air cooler to reduce the air temperature. It then enters the air drying purifier to remove moisture, carbon dioxide, acetylene and other hydrocarbons from the air. 2. Air separation The purified air enters the main heat exchanger in the air separation column, and is cooled to the saturation temperature by the reflux gas (production nitrogen gas, waste gas), and is sent to the bottom of the distillation column. The nitrogen is obtained fr
