What issues should be paid attention to when operating the molecular sieve purification system of the air separation equipment

Author: DEAR AST

The purification effect of the molecular sieve purification system affects the operating cycle of the device. Improper operation of the same equipment may also affect the purification effect. The following issues should be noted during operation:

1) Installation requirements for molecular sieve adsorbers: carefully check whether the upper and lower sieve screens are damaged and whether they are firmly fixed; Whether the molecular sieve is fully filled and leveled; Carefully seal the inner and outer cylinder manholes to prevent mutual gas leakage;

2) When the molecular sieve adsorber is running, it is necessary to regularly monitor the temperature curve of the molecular sieve and the carbon dioxide content at the outlet to determine whether the adsorber is working properly;

3) Closely monitor the switching program of the adsorber and whether the switching pressure difference is normal. If there is a malfunction, it should be dealt with promptly;

4) Pay close attention to the normal operation of the refrigerator. If a short-term malfunction causes an increase in air outlet temperature, the switching cycle of the adsorber should be shortened in a timely manner and the malfunction should be eliminated in a timely manner;

5) When starting and boosting the air compressor, it should be done slowly to prevent excessive air velocity. When inflating the low-temperature system or increasing the system load (starting the expander, opening the throttle valve, etc.), it should be done slowly to prevent system pressure fluctuations;

6) When the air separation equipment is stopped, the main air valve behind the adsorber should be immediately closed to prevent excessive airflow velocity from impacting the molecular sieve bed layer during restart.

Answer: select the small cryogenic air separation unit with argon, and give priority to verifying the real continuous operation performance of the unit with argon below 1000nm ³/h, avoiding the scheme with only drawings and no long-term operation record. Key dimensions of model selection: 1. operation performance: it is confirmed that the manufacturer has a long-term stable production case of small flow air separation with argon. Deere air separation small-scale hydrogen free total distillation argon extraction air separation, supports scale customization below 1000nm ³/h, and is equipped with intelligent control system, with mature landing performance. 2. power consumption per unit liquid argon

Answer: the default unit gauge pressure is MPa (g), and the mainstream is cryogenic full low pressure external compression process. Design pressure of conventional energy-saving models in the industry: 0.50~0.55 MPa (g); The lower limit of stability of ordinary process is about 0.45 MPa (g). In general, it is not recommended to be lower than 0.42 MPa (g) for a long time in the conventional scheme. If the pressure is too low, there will be risks such as poor heat exchange in the precooling tower, insufficient purification of molecular sieve, difficult to balance the cooling capacity, and the air compressor close to the surge area. The internal compressed air is distributed with a booster. The main air compressor is mostly 0.55~0.65 MPa (g), and the lower limit is mostly 0.50 MPa (g), which is difficult to achieve below 0.45MPa (g). Deere air separation ultra-low discharge pressure patented energy-saving external compression air separation, through the collaborative optimization of the w
