Detailed description of the invention
With reference to accompanying drawing, the embodiment of external-cooling type single-stage rectification air separation unit of the present utility model is illustrated.
Fig. 1 is the external-cooling type single-stage rectification space division flow chart of present embodiment.
As it is shown in figure 1, the external-cooling type single-stage rectification air separation unit that present embodiment provides includes king-tower 1 and secondary tower 2, king-tower 1 includes king-tower epimere 14 and king-tower hypomere 15, connects with the medium position of king-tower hypomere 15 bottom secondary tower 2.
After the compressed purification of raw air respectively through oxygen heat exchanger 6, nitrogen heat exchanger 7 and argon heat exchanger 8 respectively with the oxygen backflowed, nitrogen, argon carries out heat exchange, is cooled to saturation temperature and enters in the middle part of the king-tower 1 of rectifying column, it is particularly located at the upper end of king-tower hypomere 15, reinforced in king-tower 1.
Now, because the boiling point of nitrogen is lower than the boiling point of oxygen and argon, so in liquid, nitrogen evaporation rises in tower, in gas, oxygen, argon condensation decline realize rectification and separate. Rise to its purity of nitrogen at king-tower 1 top up to 5N. Part nitrogen a portion is drawn as product, and the liquid oxygen coolant that wherein another part enters main refrigerant evaporator interior with it carries out heat exchange, and post liquefaction becomes liquid nitrogen reflux. The liquid nitrogen of liquefaction backflow is crossing in process with the oxygen constantly risen bottom king-tower 1, owing to boiling point is relatively low, can again be vaporizated into nitrogen and rise to king-tower 1 top, and a part is drawn, and is partly into main condenser vaporizer 3 and carries out heat exchange, circulates with this and carry out.
Because inside king-tower 1, it is back to the liquid oxygen at the bottom of tower and cannot automatically rise to tower top, also gas evaporation cannot be converted into out, so in present embodiment, outside bottom king-tower 1 has arranged the conveyance conduit being provided with choke valve 12, this conveyance conduit connects with the condenser/evaporator of tower top at the bottom of king-tower 1 tower, participates in heat exchange at this point it is possible to be conveyed into after being reduced pressure by choke valve by the part liquid oxygen at the bottom of tower in the main condenser vaporizer 3 of tower top as the coolant in main condenser vaporizer 3.
And now the liquid oxygen coolant in main condenser vaporizer 3 is because being gasificated as gas evaporation after carrying out heat exchange with the nitrogen risen, the gas of evaporation is after circulation heat exchanger 9 re-heat of peripheral hardware, and pressurize through recycle compressor 10, enter tower reactor 4 rising circulation after cooling and participate in rectification, and then realize the kind of refrigeration cycle of internal system and recycling of coolant.
Also including a secondary tower 2 in the side of described king-tower 1, this secondary tower 2 connects with the middle part of king-tower 1 hypomere 15 simultaneously. In distillation process, the boiling point of nitrogen is minimum, argon is close with the boiling point of oxygen, in king-tower 1, oxygen and argon all cannot rise to the top of king-tower 1, so, only nitrogen can be separated at king-tower 1 top, and 8-12% Argon fraction is collected at the medium position of king-tower 1 hypomere 15, is admitted to secondary tower 2 and carries out oxygen, argon separation.
Now, initial backflow required in secondary tower 2 can pass through extracting part separatory oxygen coolant from the tower reactor 4 bottom king-tower 1 and through liquid oxygen pump 11 and be admitted in the argon refrigerant evaporator at secondary tower 2 top by reflux inlet 13, carries out heat exchange with the argon risen.
In secondary tower 2, because the boiling point of oxygen is higher than the boiling point of argon, so, argon is easier to be converted into gas evaporation and rises. Argon rises to secondary tower 2 top, and a part is drawn as product, and is recovered to room temperature through outside argon heat exchanger 8 re-heat. It is liquid argon condensing reflux that major part argon can enter in the argon condenser/evaporator 5 at secondary tower 2 top that the liquid oxygen coolant interior with it carries out Gas heated reforming, liquid oxygen coolant in argon condenser/evaporator 5 can be converted into oxygen discharge simultaneously, and as Product recycling after oxygen heat exchanger 6 re-heat reaches room temperature.
So, by external-cooling type single-stage rectification single-stage rectification air separation unit provided by the invention, it is possible to realize single-stage rectification and can be kept completely separate air, produce 2N pure oxygen and 5N purity nitrogen.
For compensating the cold damage of distillation process, LO can be used alone or in combination2��LN2, LAr supplements from respective inlet respectively, it is ensured that distillation process continuously performs. The feature of external-cooling type single-stage low-pressure distillation air separation unit:
1) outer cooling and air separating device starts rapidly, and start-stop is convenient. Not by mend speed of cooling limited, startup stage strengthen mend cold, quickly equipment is cooled to duty. Within thermal starting can be controlled in 8 hours. Shut down 8 hours, within the 0.5-1 hour time of cold start-up. 24 hours downtimes, within 1-2 hour, can recovering nominal situation, startup can enter oxygen supply operating mode.
2) flexible adjustment, smooth running. It is cold that external cooling method achieves benefit timely, quick, accurate. Mending cold does not affect rectification operating mode, mends cold route short. Therefore flexible adjustment, smooth running.
3) change tradition space division gaseous state and mend cold mode, adopt liquid to mend cold. Temperature is low, and cold is big, it is possible to increases reflux ratio and improves distillation process, improves separation efficiency.
4) a tower multimachine configuration is adopted, by startup-shutdown air compressor machine, feed change tolerance, it is achieved divide gear to adjust load on a large scale. Total power consumption linearly changes with yield, and unit consumption remains unchanged.
5) woods German system SAPMAC method is with oxygen for working medium, and refrigerating efficiency is high.
6) rectification air separation column diameter with pressure can reduce more than half, and large-scale and Extra large air separation plant manufactures a difficult problem and is readily solved.
7) decompressor run up is eliminated. Air separation column is made up of static equipment completely, eliminates mechanical breakdown, and safety and stability is higher.
Above, although describe several embodiments of the invention, but these embodiments are intended only as what example proposed, are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. For the embodiment that these are new, it is possible to be carried out in other various modes, without departing from the scope of idea of the invention, it is possible to carry out various omission, displacement and change. These embodiments and its deformation, while being contained in the scope of the present invention and main idea, be also contained in invention and the equivalency range thereof of record in claims.
