Why should the cold box maintain pressure

Why should the cold box maintain pressure

Author: DEAR AST

The air separation cold box is generally filled with pearlescent sand as thermal insulation material, and the pearlescent sand particles are filled with air. After the air separation unit is operated, the volume of insulation material and air will be reduced due to the temperature greatly reduced. If the cold box is well sealed, negative pressure will be formed in the cold box. Under the effect of internal and external pressure difference, the cold box may be compressed. However, if the cold box is poorly sealed, the moisture outside the cold box will enter the cold box again, which will make the insulation material damp and greatly increase the cold loss of the equipment. Therefore, in order to maintain a slight positive pressure in the cold box, the cold box is generally filled with dry nitrogen or dirty nitrogen after the equipment is operated.

The scientific research innovation of the liquefied air upper rectification tower independently developed by Kaifeng DEAR air separation has been successfully applied in the production of Shandong Kenli kdon-300 / 3000 high-purity nitrogen hanging oxygen tower and the manufacturing equipment of energy-saving and environment-friendly industrial gas, which has solved the problem of heat loss caused by heat transfer of accessories, strengthened the thermal insulation effect of the upper rectification tower, reduced the temperature drop of the rectification tower, and is very effective in ensuring the thermal insulation effect of the upper rectification tower, The anti-skid layer composed of polytetrafluoroethylene is used to improve the friction force of the inner wall of the clamp ring, so that the clamp ring can be more firmly fixed to the rectification tower body, and the service performance of the device is improved.

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
