    摘要: A generator produces ultra-high purity nitrogen and ultra-high purity oxygen simultaneously by the liquefaction and rectification of feed air. Feed air is rectified in a first rectification column, and nitrogen gas separated to the top of that column is liquefied, in a nitrogen condenser, by oxygen-enriched liquid air separated to the bottom portion of the first rectification column. The oxygen-enriched liquid is fed to the upper portion of a second rectification column having a reboiler at its bottom, so that through rectification oxygen gas is fed from above a liquid reservoir to the lower portion of a third rectification column. Through rectification of the oxygen gas in the third rectification column, high purity oxygen gas, from which impurities having boiling points higher than that of oxygen have been removed by liquefaction, is fed to the center portion of a fourth rectification column which has a condenser in its top portion and a reboiler in its bottom portion. Through rectification of the high purity oxygen gas in the fourth rectification column, impurities having boiling points lower than that of oxygen are exhausted from the top portion thereof as non-condensed gas and ultra-high purity liquid oxygen is separated to the bottom thereof.

    摘要: A sampling system for cryogenic liquid sampling which passes vaporized cryogenic fluid to an analyzer through a conduit having a defined restriction such as an orifice at or downstream of the input and which prevents choke flow in the conduit by simultaneously reducing the pressure which promotes choke flow and improving the ratio of the fluid pressure at and downstream of the restriction in the direction which resists choke flow.

    摘要: The present invention is an improvement to a two distillation column, cryogenic air separation process which produces nitrogen-rich and oxygen-rich products. The improvement to the process is condensing at least a portion of the nitrogen overhead from the high pressure column in a reboiler/condenser against a crude liquid oxygen stream and in an intermediate reboiler/condenser located in the low pressure column against internal low pressure column streams. The condensed nitrogen overhead is fed either to the low pressure or high pressure columns as reflux. The vaporized portion of the crude liquid oxygen stream is work expanded to provide some or all of the refrigeration required for the process.

    摘要: Liquid oxygen and/or liquid nitrogen are made by removing carbon dioxide and water vapor from air, compressing the purified air in a re-cycle compressor and dividing the purified compressed air into first and second streams. Part of the first stream is expanded in a first expander and the refrigeration produced is used to cool both the first and second streams in a first heat exchanger. On leaving the first heat exchanger, the second stream is expanded in a second expander and the refrigeration produced is used to liquify at least part of the remainder of the first stream. The liquid stream is expanded and introduced into a fractionation column from which liquid nitrogen and/or liquid oxygen can be withdrawn. Expanded air from the first and second expanders is returned to the re-cycle compressor although part of the expanded air from the second expander is preferably introduced into the fractionation column. The invention is particularly suited to installations producing in excess of 100 tons of liquid per day and, at this size, preferred designs offer an estimated 51/2 to 9% power savings over the known prior art.

    摘要: A plant for the production of low purity oxygen, in which a low pressure stream of incoming air is cooled against outgoing gas streams and fed into a high pressure fractionating column, and a high pressure stream of incoming air is cooled against outgoing gas streams, partially condensed against boiling liquid oxygen product in a product vaporizer, and separated into gas and liquid streams, the liquid stream being sub-cooled and expanded into a low pressure fractionating column while a major part of the gas stream is re-heated and expanded to provide plant refrigeration. Crude liquid oxygen from the bottom of the high pressure column is cooled against waste outgoing nitrogen from the low pressure column and then admitted to the low pressure column after first being used to liquefy some of the nitrogen from the high pressure column in an external reboiler/condenser. Liquid oxygen product from the low pressure column is pumped to a higher pressure before being passed through the sub-cooler and the product vaporizer. The remainder of the high pressure column nitrogen is liquefied in a second external reboiler/condenser by the separated high pressure liquid feed on its way to the low pressure column. The liquefied high pressure column nitrogen is used as reflux for the two columns, that for the low pressure column being cooled against outgoing waste nitrogen. The expander exhaust is likewise cooled against outgoing waste nitrogen before admission to the low pressure column.
