Air separation equipment compressor is the core component in air separation equipment, mainly used to compress the air in the atmosphere to a higher pressure for subsequent cooling, separation and other treatments, so as to produce industrial gases such as oxygen, nitrogen and other gases.
The compressor draws in and compresses atmospheric air to a high pressure state through the action of mechanical energy. During the compression process, the pressure and temperature of the air are increased, which facilitates the subsequent separation of the different components of the air by means of cooling and separation techniques.
Air separation plant compressors can be divided into various types according to different structures and principles, such as centrifugal compressors, piston compressors, screw compressors and so on. Among them, centrifugal compressors can meet the demand for gas flow and pressure of large-scale air separation equipment due to their high efficiency, stability, easy maintenance and other characteristics. It is widely used in large-scale air separation equipment.
Air separation equipment compressor is one of the core components of the air separation equipment, and its performance directly affects the operating efficiency of the entire air separation system and product quality. Therefore, in the selection and use of air separation equipment compressor, need to fully consider its performance parameters, operational stability, maintenance costs and other factors to ensure long-term stable operation of the air separation system and efficient production.

Expander is a kind of mechanical equipment that uses compressed gas to expand and depressurize, so that the gas temperature can be reduced to obtain the cooling capacity. In the air separation unit, the expander is an important equipment to provide cooling capacity for the air separation unit, and its cooling capacity accounts for 80% - 90% of the cooling capacity of the air separation unit. The main structural forms of expander are piston type and turbine type. The piston expander is suitable for air separation process with large pressure drop and small flow rate because of its convenient manufacture and low speed. Turbine type has the characteristics of large gas flow, high efficiency, stable and reliable operation and no friction parts. Due to the low pressure air separation process used in large air separation units, the pressure drop and unit cooling capacity are very small, and because the expansion air is sent to the upper column for rectification, the expander is requi
