    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: The present invention is a cryogenic process to produce medium to high pressure gaseous nitrogen without the use of a nitrogen product compressor. The process is an improvement to a conventional nitrogen generator with waste expander. The present invention reboils crude liquid oxygen from the main distillation column in two stages at different pressures and uses a small number of trays above one of the reboilers. The use of the trays above one of the reboilers allows collection of a pressurized stream with a composition similar to air. This pressurized stream is recycled to an intermediate stage of the main air compressor.

    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.
