What are the signs of excessive carbon dioxide and water in the air after the molecular sieve adsorber of the air separation equipment? What is the reason?

The signs of excessive carbon dioxide and water in the air after the molecular sieve adsorber are:
(1) At the end of the use cycle of the molecular sieve adsorber, the carbon dioxide and water content increase rapidly, and the alarm values of the testing instrument should be monitored at all times;
(2) The carbon dioxide and water in the main heat exchanger have a freezing phenomenon, and the temperature difference at the hot end increases.
The cause is:
(1) If the molecular sieve is used for too long, the adsorption performance will decrease;
(2) Incomplete regeneration of molecular sieve, leakage of regeneration heater, humid regeneration gas or excessive moisture in the air affecting the adsorption of carbon dioxide;
(3) The uneven bed of the horizontal molecular sieve adsorber causes a short circuit in the airflow;
(4) The bed of the vertical molecular sieve adsorber has gaps, causing a short circuit in the airflow.

The non-power consuming option for liquid air separation plants can be used for full liquid air separation plants,where the produced liquid is sold off. This approach is currently available for most LNG receiving stations. For air separation units with a large cold capacity, the liquid air can be pressurised to 6baA in a vacuum storage tank, and then heat exchanged through a heat exchanger, instead of the air compressor, directly into the cold box for distillation. At the same time in the cold b...

1. Before connecting the pipe orifice of each container, clean white cloth shall be used to tie the orifice to prevent grease and dirt from entering. 2. When welding in the cold box and in the condensing evaporator, it is strictly forbidden for flame or arc to touch the surface of vessels and pipes. 3. The containers, valves, pipes and corresponding supports in the cold box, the surface of the cold box and the foundation surface shall not be stained with grease after installation, otherwise, degreasing treatment shall be carried out.
