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.

1. Before filling with pearlite, the water accumulated on the foundation surface of air separation unit must be removed, dried with hot air, and all manholes shall be closed. 2. When filling pearlite, all containers and pipes in the cold box should be inflated and kept at 50kPa pressure, then slightly open the valve of each meter pipeline, and all thermometers should be electrified to check whether the thermometer cable is damaged during the filling process. 3. The filled pearlite shall not be mixed with combustibles. 4. When filling with pearlite, coarse mesh or pearlite pouring device should be set at the manhole on the top of the cold box to prevent whole bag pearlite from entering the cold box. 5. After the pearlite is filled, the manhole shall be sealed.
