Air separation equipment is a kind of equipment capable of separating oxygen, nitrogen and other gases from air, which is widely used in many fields with different proportions of demand for oxygen and nitrogen. Air separation equipment mainly utilizes the different boiling points of the components in the air, and separates oxygen and nitrogen from the air through compression, cooling, liquefaction, distillation and other steps. The operating parameters of the equipment such as pressure, temperature and flow rate will affect the final gas ratio.
Adjusting pressure: By adjusting the inlet pressure or outlet pressure of the air separation equipment, the flow rate and distribution of the gas in the equipment can be changed, thus affecting the separation effect of the gas. Adjusting temperature: Temperature is one of the most important factors affecting gas separation. By adjusting the cooling temperature of the equipment and the temperature distribution of the distillation tower, the degree of liquefaction of the gas and the separation efficiency can be changed. Adjust the flow rate: by adjusting the air flow rate into the equipment or the product gas take out flow rate, you can change the gas concentration in the equipment and separation effect. Adjusting distillation tower operation: The distillation tower is one of the core parts of the air separation equipment. By adjusting the reflux ratio of the distillation tower, liquid surface height and plate pressure and other parameters, you can change the distribution of gas in the tower and separation efficiency.
In actual operation, it should be precisely controlled and adjusted according to specific needs and equipment conditions.

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
