Author: DEAR AST

After long-term operation of the air separation plant, when the oxygen generator of the air separation plant is shut down for maintenance and hot work is required for welding, the following aspects shall be paid attention to:

1. If open fire is required in the oxygen generator workshop, it shall be approved by the superior, and the oxygen concentration around the site shall be tested to strengthen fire fighting measures. When the oxygen concentration in the welding site is higher than 23%, welding is not allowed. When the oxygen concentration is lower than 19%, asphyxiation accident shall be prevented;

2. Vessels with air pressure shall not be welded before pressure relief;

3. It is not allowed to repair low temperature vessels without thorough heating to avoid excessive thermal stress or failure to ensure welding quality. In serious cases, if liquid oxygen and gaseous oxygen leak out, it may also cause fire;

4. The whole process of hot work shall be monitored by the safety officer.

Liquid air separation plant liquid hub area piping arrangement is mainly oxygen, nitrogen, argon liquid pipeline and pump box in the liquid pipeline arrangement. As oxygen, nitrogen, argon liquid temperature is extremely low (liquid oxygen -183 ° C ℃, liquid nitrogen -196 ° C, argon liquid -185.7C), in the liquid flow process, resulting in a certain amount of gasification, piping should pay attention to the slope of the liquid pipeline towards (no slope requirements on the process).

Air cooling column is a mixed heat exchange device. The function is to make the cooling water fully contact with the air and being mixed fully to increase the heat transfer area and enhance the heat transfer, usually using "packed column" or "sieve plate". The packed column is a round steel container with packing (ceramic ring, plastic ring, etc.). Cooling water is ejected from the top of the column and mixed with air flowing upward from the bottom for heat and mass exchange. Air transfers heat to the cooling water, lowering its temperature and raising its temperature. In order to prevent the generation of water droplets in the air, the raschig ring (or stainless steel wire mesh) packing separator (also known as trapping layer) and mechanical water separator (inertial separation) are usually installed on the upper part of the column. The cooling water ejected from the spray device flows downward to the packing layer through the distributor, and an overflow ring is provided to redist
