What should be paid attention to when adjusting the air separation equipment when oxygen is abundant and oxygen production needs to be reduced

When there is abundant oxygen and it is necessary to reduce oxygen production, the first step is to reduce the output of oxygen products, then correspondingly reduce the air flow rate, and adjust the expansion air volume according to the main cooling liquid level. The liquid air and liquid nitrogen control valves sent to the upper tower should also be correspondingly turned down according to the distillation conditions. It should be noted that the entire operation should be completed slowly and gradually to maintain the stability of the distillation conditions during the reduction process.

If there is a liquid oxygen storage system, reducing oxygen production can increase the production of liquid oxygen, making it more convenient to store it. You can first reduce the oxygen production, then increase the expansion air volume, and increase the extraction amount of liquid oxygen while maintaining the main cooling liquid level unchanged. To maintain the stability of the distillation conditions in the upper tower, some expansion air can be bypassed if necessary.

Special pressure-bearing equipment generally bears internal pressure, that will cause tensile stress inside the shell, which is called working stress. The working stress is directly proportional to the pressure and diameter, and inversely proportional to the vessel wall thickness. The axial stress is half of the circumferential stress. Therefore, for cylindrical vessels, the stress of longitudinal weld is twice that of girth weld. Because the geometric shape of the spherical shell is symmetrical to the spherical center, and the axial stress is equal to the circumferential stress in numerical value. Therefore, the wall thickness of the spherical vessel can be reduced by half as much as that of the cylindrical vessel under the same pressure and diameter.
