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 plant operation cycle between two large heating is related to many factors. From an operational point of view, this mainly depends on when the air passage of the main heat exchanger is blocked. The main reason for the blockage is that the moisture and carbon dioxide content in the air entering the unit exceeds the standard, which accumulates and freezes in the main heat exchanger until it is blocked. The abnormal operation of molecular sieve purification system will shorten the operation cycle of the unit. It is mainly caused by the following reasons: 1. The molecular sieve adsorption bed is short circuited. In the process of operation, due to the unstable gas velocity control or switching, the pressure difference between the two tanks is too large, which will affect the bed layer, make the molecular sieve bed uneven and make the bed layer short circuit. In serious cases, the dust screen of the adsorber will break and the molecular sieve powder will enter the heat exchanger c
