There are three types of adsorbers used in the purification system: vertical axial flow, horizontal double-layer bed, and vertical radial flow.

Vertical axial flow is mainly used as a supporting device for air separation equipment with a diameter of up to 4.6m and a grade of 10000. The bed thickness is 1550-230mm, and both layers and single-layer can be arranged. The vertical axial flow adsorber has the best airflow distribution. The horizontal double-layer bed is mainly used for supporting large and medium-sized air separation equipment, with a bed thickness of 1150mm (molecular sieve)+350mm (aluminum glue). Vertical radial flow adsorbers can effectively utilize the internal space of the container, expanding the adsorption layer area of the same diameter by about 1.5 times, which can effectively reduce the height of the tower. At the same time, the vertical installation method occupies a smaller area. Due to the uniform distribution of airflow, unlike the uneven airflow in a horizontal adsorber, the amount of molecular sieve used is reduced by 20%, and the energy consumption for regeneration is also saved by 20%. However, the disadvantage of vertical radial flow is the concentration of the airflow center (fan-shaped area), which makes it faster than horizontal penetration time (requiring CO2<0.5ppm). The bed thickness is 1000mm+200mm, and the vertical radial flow can meet the configuration of air separation equipment with a grade of 20000 or above.

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
