Nitrogen is the main component of air, accounting for about 78% of the air. With the progress of science and technology and economic development, the application scope of nitrogen is expanding day by day and has penetrated into many industrial sectors and daily life fields.

There are several main methods for producing nitrogen gas. One of them is cryogenic air separation for nitrogen production, which is a traditional nitrogen production method with a history of nearly several decades. It uses air as the raw material, undergoes compression, purification, and then uses heat exchange to liquefy the air into liquid air. Liquid air is mainly a mixture of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. By utilizing the different boiling points of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen (at 1 atmospheric pressure, the former has a boiling point of -183 ℃, while the latter has a boiling point of -196 ℃), they are separated through distillation of liquid air to obtain nitrogen gas. The characteristics of deep cold air separation nitrogen production equipment are high gas production, high product nitrogen purity, and can be stored in liquid nitrogen storage tanks, making it suitable for large-scale industrial nitrogen production.

Due to the irreplaceable competitive advantage of low-temperature separation method in large-scale molding of oxygen and nitrogen liquid products, especially high-purity products, and the fact that only low-temperature separation method has the ability to simultaneously produce rare gas products such as argon, low-temperature separation method occupies a very important position in the industrial application of air separation.

The air separation column mainly includes main heat exchanger, liquefier, distillation column, condensing evaporator, etc. The main heat exchanger, condensing evaporator and liquefier are plate type of heat exchangers. It is a new type of all aluminum metal composite partition heat exchanger. The average temperature difference is small, and the heat exchange efficiency is as high as 98-99%. Distillation column is the unit of air separation. The types of column unit are classified according to the internal parts. The sieve plate column with sieve plate, the bubble cap column with bubble cap plate, and the packed column with packing material. The sieve plate is widely used in air separation distillation column because of its simple structure, easy manufacture and high efficiency. Packed column is mainly used for distillation column with diameter less than 0.8m and height less than 7m. Bubble column is seldom used because of its complicated structure and difficult manufacture.
