The air is compressed by a high-capacity air compressor, enters a pre-cooling system, and then enters the main heat exchanger to further reduce the temperature and is removed by filtration to minimize the impact of impurities on the separation process. The filtered cold air enters the distillation tower for separation. In the distillation tower, the two are separated and purified through the evaporation and condensation cycle of the multi-stage tower plate, utilizing the difference in the boiling points of oxygen and nitrogen.
In the process design technology to ensure that there are three links: High-efficiency heat exchanger: the main heat exchanger adopts high-efficiency heat transfer technology, not only can the gas cool down to near-liquefaction state, but also reduce the energy loss and improve the separation efficiency. Optimized design of distillation tower: The design of distillation tower is crucial to the purity of oxygen and nitrogen. Higher separation efficiency can be achieved by increasing the number of plates, optimizing fluid distribution and improving gas-liquid contact effects. Advanced automatic control system: the air separation equipment is equipped with advanced automatic control system, which monitors the temperature, pressure and liquid level in the tower in real time to ensure the separation process is carried out stably, and at the same time, adjusts the operation parameters according to the feedback data to ensure the purity of oxygen and nitrogen.
The air separation equipment is able to produce high purity oxygen and nitrogen through precise process design, efficient technical guarantee, strict quality control and specific technical means.

Regulation of liquid nitrogen throttle valveThe opening of the liquid nitrogen throttle valve not only affects the reflux ratio of the upper tower, but also affects the reflux ratio of the lower tower. When the opening is increased, the reflux ratio of the upper tower increases, while the reflux ratio of the lower tower decreases, the purity of the nitrogen in the upper tower increases, and the purity of the oxygen enriched night sky in the lower tower increases. However, after the opening is over, the purity of the liquid nitrogen decreases, and the reduction of the reflux ratio of the upper tower is also detrimental to the improvement of the purity of the liquid oxygen. Therefore, an equilibrium point should be found for the opening of the liquid nitrogen throttle valve. We can generally use the purity difference between liquid nitrogen and gas nitrogen to judge whether the opening is appropriate. Generally, the purity of the sprayed liquid nitrogen is equal to that of the upper towe

In the field of air separation, entropy is the core thermodynamic parameter to measure the energy quality and irreversibility of the system, which directly determines the energy consumption level and operation efficiency of the unit. Entropy, with the symbol s, is essentially a measure of the degree of chaos and energy unavailability of a system, in kj/(kg ・ K). The second law of thermodynamics clearly states that the total entropy of an isolated system only increases but does not decrease, that is, the principle of entropy increase. The higher the entropy, the lower the energy quality, and the more difficult it is to convert into cold energy or useful work; The smaller the entropy, the more orderly the energy, and the more sufficient the available energy. The essence of air separation unit is the combination of cryogenic refrigeration and distillation separation, and the whole process is closely related to entropy. The ideal reversible process is an isentropic process, and the entropy
