The air separation cold box is generally filled with pearlite as thermal insulation material, and there is air between pearlite particles. After the operation of the air separation plant, the temperature in the cold box decreases, and the volume of pearlite and air decreases. In order to reduce the cold loss, the cold box is required to be well sealed, so the cold box will form negative pressure, and the cold box may be compressed under the effect of the internal and external pressure difference. In order to prevent the cold box from collapsing, generally fill the cold box with dry nitrogen or dirty nitrogen after the equipment is running to keep the cold box at a slight positive pressure.

DEAR Air Separation has seven years of operating experience in the field of industrial gas investment. The gas products produced by the air separation industry are used as raw materials for industrial basic production. Investing in industrial gas projects, building their own gas production lines, taking advantage of the natural advantages of the air separation manufacturing industry, changing the traditional mode of manufacturing only producing equipment without producing end products, and the cost advantage of energy saving and consumption reduction of Deere Air Separation, providing gas products to surrounding customers, will provide a huge development platform for manufacturing industry production, And it will bring huge social benefits and considerable profits. Deer Air is accelerating the strategic transformation from selling "cow" to selling "milk"!

Internal compression air separation process is a process form in which liquid products are pressurized by liquid pump in the cold box, and then sent out of the cold box after reheating by high-pressure heat exchanger. The working pressure of internal compression process generally exceeds the critical point of oxygen and nitrogen. Heat transfer of liquid in supercritical state is a major feature of internal compression process. In the distillation process, due to the difference of product types and acquisition methods, there is a big difference between the material import and export of internal equipment and external compression process. In the internal compressed air separation process, the pressure of oxygen is not limited, the maximum output of nitrogen can reach 2.8 times of that of oxygen, and the extraction rate of argon can reach about 85%. The internal compression air separation process is generally composed of internal compression system, air precooling system, molecular sie

Leakage is the easiest failure of regulating valve during operation. Some leak at the welding place, and some leak at the sealing place of the stuffing. When leakage occurs at the welding site, repair welding can be done during overhaul; when leakage occurs at the sealing site of the stuffing, new stuffing can be replaced. Sometimes the film of the film actuator is damaged, and the valve stem can't act normally with the air pressure signal, so it needs to be replaced with a new film. In order to avoid the deformation of the valve stem affecting the regulating function, it is better to stand on the pipeline when installing the regulating valve. It is not suitable to install the low-temperature film regulating valve horizontally, and it should form an angle above 150 with the level so that the sealing place of the stuffing is not affected by the liquid. The slanting valve must be lifted. When operating, always pay attention to whether the regulating valve gets stuck. The sealing fille...
