What are the driving forms and characteristics of the compressor of the air separation plant
Nov 19, 2025
Author: DEAR AST

The compressor of the air separation plant has two driving modes and their respective characteristics are as follows:

1. Turbine drive:

Steam turbine is widely used in electric power, chemical industry, metallurgy and other industries and fields because of its characteristics of high speed rotation, stable operation, small wear and long continuous operation time. However, the one-time investment of steam turbine drive is relatively large, and the requirements for heating pipeline and production system are relatively high, the equipment production cycle is long, the installation and commissioning as well as the startup and shutdown process of the whole system are relatively complex, and the boiler discharge also has certain pollution to the environment. Generally, large air separation equipment is driven by steam turbine.

2. Motor drive:

Motor is an indispensable rotating drive equipment in the industrial production process. The motor covers all production links in the industrial industry with the advantages of stable operation, simple start and stop control, and short production cycle. And the motor installation is relatively independent, which can better ensure the construction period. However, high-power motors require high power grid conditions when starting, which is easy to affect the surrounding equipment. 35000 m at present ³/ The air separation equipment below grade h is mostly driven by motor.

Liquid air separation plant cold energy utilises air separation equipment, generally large air separation equipment with 2 combined expanders. The price is around 4 million RMB. The expansion air in the air separation plant is no longer required, so for the internal compression process air separation, the inlet air volume of the circulating booster is reduced by about 40% (from 5.A-2A). The energy consumption of the booster is reduced and the investment is reduced. Liquid air separation equipmen...
