Reasons for the decrease in moisture content of air after passing through the cooling tower of an air separation plant

For low-pressure air separation devices, the absolute pressure of compressed air discharged from the air compressor is around 0.6MPa. After compression, the moisture content per unit volume of air increases, causing its moisture content to reach the saturation level corresponding to the temperature at that time. When air flows through the air cooling tower, as the temperature decreases, the corresponding saturated moisture content decreases, and the excess part will precipitate from the gas in a liquid state. This portion of water vapor condenses into water, while releasing latent heat of condensation, which not only increases the cooling water volume but also increases the water temperature. But the temperature of the air exiting the tower decreases, so although the air comes into direct contact with water in the cooling tower, its moisture content will actually decrease.

The research and development of DEAR Air Separation has always focused on intelligent air separation devices and the development of new energy-saving products. Through cooperation with renowned universities and research institutions both inside and outside the province, and through independent and collaborative innovation, a group of professional engineering and technical teams have been cultivated, and a number of high-tech gas separation device research and development projects have been stored.

The molecular sieve used in oxygen generators is the zeolite molecular sieve. It is a crystalline silica and aluminate polyhydric compound. Molecular sieves have a uniform pore size and their main function is to sieve molecules. There are three main types of molecular sieves: A, X and Y. The 13X molecular sieve is the only adsorbent currently used in liquid air separation plants. Any molecules that can be adsorbed on 3A, 4A and 5A molecular sieves can be adsorbed by 13X molecular sieves. It is c...

Pressure test before valve installation 1. In the warranty period, those with the certification and the sealing surface is intact can no longer conduct the strength test alone, but only the air tightness test can be taken before installation. 2. Within the warranty period, it has the certificate, and its sealing surface has defects such as corrosion and damage. After treatment, it must carry out the air tightness test. 3. Outside the warranty period, those with certification and intact sealing surface shall be subject to air tightness test before installation. 4. For valves that need to be degreased and disassembled on site, air tightness test shall be conducted separately before installation. 5. The safety valve shall be sent to the local quality inspection department of the project for verification before the end of installation and commissioning.
