The small air separation unit screw chiller is named screw chiller because its key component compressor is screw type.

Gas through the screw chiller unit, the evaporator out of the gas refrigerant, after the compressor adiabatic compression, into a high temperature and high pressure state of the gas. The compressed gas refrigerant is cooled and condensed in the condenser at medium pressure, which changes into liquid refrigerant after condensation. After condensation, the refrigerant is changed into liquid refrigerant, which is then expanded to low pressure by a throttle valve and turned into a gas-liquid mixture. The liquid refrigerant at low temperature and low pressure absorbs the heat of the refrigerated material in the evaporator and becomes gaseous refrigerant again. The gaseous refrigerant re-enters the compressor of the small air separation units via the pipeline and starts a new cycle. These are the four processes of the freezing cycle, which are also the main working principles of the screw chiller.

Dear air separation has research theory and rich practical experience in small air separation units, large air separation units and liquid air separation plants manufacturing technology principles and process systems, production technology is mature and standardized, in the field of air separation has a very good performance and reputation.

In the air separation unit, low-temperature liquid is transported by centrifugal cryogenic pump. In order to ensure the reliable operation of the equipment, two sets of low-temperature pumps are generally equipped, one for use and one for standby. During normal operation, the main pump runs at full load, and the standby pump is in standby state under low load operation. Since the working medium temperature of cryogenic liquid pump is about -180°C, the working pressure is very high, and the pump body is installed in the cold box. When the pump fails, it is extremely difficult to maintain. Therefore, how to maintain the stable and reliable operation of cryogenic liquid pump is of great significance.

The brief introduction of the air filter and air compressor in this process is the same as that of the chilled nitrogen production process. 1. Cold dryer: it is an air separation equipment used to reduce the temperature of compressed air before entering the air drying purifier to extract oil and water. It usually adopts post cooler with the structure of column pipe type, casing type, cooling sheet type and so on. 2. Oil-water separator: its function is to separate the oil and moisture contained in the compressed air and make the compressed air get Primary purification. 3. Air drying purifier: Compressed air still contains certain moisture after passing through the post cooler, and its content depends on the temperature of the air. The drying process of compressed air generally adopts molecular sieve absorption method and freeze drying method. 4. Pressure conversion absorption nitrogen generation device: the adsorbents used are usually 5A Molecular sieve or carbon molecular sieve, an...
