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.

It should contact with the front and rear processes when the piston compressor is ready to stop, we should pay attention to the following sequence: first, cut off the gas supply slowly. In order to prevent the outlet pressure from rising after the gas supply is cut off, open the vent valve at the same time. For the oxygen compressor, the vent valve should be opened slowly, because excessive opening may produce static electricity and cause fire. Then, stop the motor. After the motor stops, turn off the circulating oil pump, grease injector motor and cooling water valve. However, there are also exception cases. For example, in case of emergency shutdown, in order to save time and prevent the accident from expanding, the power supply can be cut off immediately to stop the compressor with load.
