How to determine whether the heating regeneration of molecular sieves in air separation equipment is complete

Firstly, it is required that the steam pressure, flow rate, etc. required for heating the molecular sieve meet the requirements of the process design.

The heating regeneration process can be judged by the regeneration temperature curve. During the pressure relief stage, due to the decrease in pressure, the adsorption capacity of the molecular sieve decreases, and some of the previously adsorbed water and carbon dioxide molecules are desorbed, resulting in a decrease in temperature.

During the heating stage, the inlet temperature of the dirty nitrogen gas rapidly increases, but the outlet temperature will continue to decrease at the beginning and then gradually increase. Because the heat at this time is first consumed in the heat required for desorption, the upper and middle molecular sieves of the bed are desorbed, and the heat is stored in the bed. The factors that affect the regeneration effect during this stage are: nitrogen flow rate, heating time, and regeneration temperature. Mainly monitoring the inlet temperature of sewage nitrogen.

During the cold blowing stage, the outlet temperature of the polluted nitrogen will continue to rise. At the beginning of this stage, the heat stored in the molecular sieve bed is used to continue desorption of the lower molecular sieve until the highest proportion of the cold blowing curve - the "cold blowing peak" - is reached. This temperature is a sign of whether the entire bed regeneration is complete. Because it is least likely to regenerate completely at the outlet. If the temperature at that location can meet the requirements, the internal temperature must definitely exceed this temperature, indicating that the internal regeneration has been completed. Therefore, during the cold blowing stage, the main focus is to monitor the peak temperature at the outlet.

The water supply source of air cooling column in precooling system equipment is cooling water pump, and water cooling column is supplied by chilled water pump. Their structures and principles are described as follows: 1. Design structure: the most basic components inside the centrifugal pump are high speed impeller and fixed volute pump case. Generally, the impeller with several (4 ~ 12) backward curved blades is fixed on the pump shaft and driven by the motor to rotate with the pump shaft at high speed. The work done by these impellers will directly act on the liquid in the pump body, which is the energy supply source device of centrifugal pump. 2. Principle: after the centrifugal pump is started, the pump shaft directly drives the reverse curved impeller to move at high speed, squeezing the pre filled liquid between the reverse curved spaces of the blade to rotate. Under the high-speed centrifugal force formed by the movement of the pump shaft, the liquid moves radially from th
