What should be paid attention to during hot welding of air separation equipment maintenance
Dec 14, 2022
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.

If the temperature after the expander of the air separation unit is too low, it should find out the cause of the low temperature and take measures to increase the temperature after the expander. If the low temperature of expander is caused by liquid air in front of expander, appropriate measures should be taken to reduce the liquid air level of lower column. If it is caused by other reasons, the more effective method is generally throttling in front of the expander. Throttling will not increase the temperature in front of the expander, but throttling will reduce the pressure in front of the expander, so the pressure difference between the front and the back of the expander will be reduced, the expander will do less work and the temperature will be reduced, so the temperature at the after of the expander can be increased.
