摘要:
An argon recovery and purification process in which the consumption of energy is small because of simple steps, is provided. This process comprises: a first step of reacting impure argon gas with hydrogen gas (H2) so that oxygen (O2) contained in the impure argon gas is converted to water (H2O), thereby substantially removing oxygen (O2) from the impure argon gas; a second step of introducing the impure argon gas into an adsorption unit for adsorbing water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) contained in the impure argon gas, thereby substantially removing the water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from the impure argon gas; and a third step of subjecting the impure argon gas to a low temperature liquefaction and introducing the liquefied argon into a rectification unit for removing low boiling point impurity components and high boiling point impurity components contained in the impure argon gas by purification and separation, thereby obtaining substantially pure argon gas.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for preparing high purity hydrogen bromide, wherein a starting hydrogen bromide which contains impurities having low boiling points is supplied to an intermediate space. While the gas phase of the starting hydrogen bromide is allowed to ascend through an upper rectifying section, it is brought into contact with a first reflux solution flowing in the reverse direction. The uncondensed gas stored in an upper space is cooled and partly condensed. The condensed liquid is allowed to flow down through an upper rectifying section as the first reflux solution. The liquid-phase of the starting hydrogen bromide is mixed with the first reflux solution in the intermediate space and serves as a second reflux solution. The liquid stored in a lower space is heated and partly evaporated. The liquid stored in the lower space is supplied outside as high purity hydrogen bromide. The uncondensed gas stored in the upper space is discharged outside.

An ultra-high purity nitrogen generator therefor is also provided.
摘要:
Ultra-high purity nitrogen is generated by removing, from feed air, carbon dioxide, moisture and catalyst poisons of an oxidation catalyst contained therein by a decarbonating drier (4). The feed air is then introduced into a low-pressure rectification column (6), where it is roughly rectified to further remove the carbon dioxide, moisture and catalyst poison. Then raw nitrogen gas obtained in the low-pressure rectification column (6) is introduced into an oxidation column (8) so that carbon monoxide in the raw nitrogen gas is converted to carbon dioxide and hydrogen also contained therein to water. Thereafter the raw nitrogen gas is introduced into an adsorption column (10) so that carbon dioxide and water are removed by adsorption to provide feed raw nitrogen gas, which is fed into an intermediate-pressure rectification column (11), where it is rectified. Nitrogen gas from the top portion of the intermediate-pressure rectification column is condensed by a reboiler-condenser (6RC) to provide high purity liquid nitrogen; and the liquid nitrogen is returned to the intermediate-pressure rectification column (11), whereby a part of this high purity liquid nitrogen is used as a reflux liquid and the remaining part thereof is taken out of a rectifying stage that is several stages below the rectifying stage in the top portion of the intermediate-pressure rectification column as an ultra-high purity nitrogen gas product or ultra-high purity liquid nitrogen product.

A method and unit for easily and continuously producing high pressure gaseous monosilane and high pressure liquid monosilane, each having an ultra high purity. In the ultra high purity monosilane producing method, a feed monosilane gas is pressurized, cooled down and subjected to a gas-liquid phase separation. The separated gas phase is introduced to a lower rectification column 1 so as to be rectified. The gas obtained through this rectification is introduced to an upper rectification column 2 so as to be rectified, wherein a gaseous monosilane product or liquid monosilane product having an ultra high purity is taken out of the bottom portion of the upper rectification column.
摘要:
The invention concerns the separation of air with an external cold source. An internal cold source is provided to supply cold heat to a compressed inert gas by expansion of a part of a liquefied inert gas when the cold from the external cold source proves to be insufficient. This part of the liquefied inert gas is combined with recycling and compressed gases. The desired production of liquid oxygen and nitrogen is thus assured in spite of variations in the external cold source.

An air separating unit which can jointly produce high purity nitrogen gas and compressed dry air of high quality freed of hydrocarbons such as methane and ethane. The air separating unit is constructed such that compressed dry air freed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and moisture is cooled down near to its liquefying point and introduced into a rectification column (30) and nitrogen gas separated by rectification from the compressed dry air in this rectification column (30) is taken out as a product. The rectifying portion in the rectification column (30) is divided into a lower rectifying portion (34) and an upper rectifying portion (36), and in this lower rectifying portion (34), hydrocarbons such as methane are mainly removed from the compressed dry air, and the compressed dry air which has passed through the lower rectifying portion (34) is taken out as a product.

Provided is a process and an apparatus for producing ultra-high purity monosilane. In a preferred embodiment, the process comprises introducing a monosilane feed gas, which also serves as a heat source, to the lower stage of a rectification column which is sectioned into an upper stage, a middle stage and a lower stage by means of an intermediate portion reboiler-condenser and a lower portion reboiler-condenser. The monosilane feed gas is cooled in the lower portion of the reboiler-condenser so that the higher boiling point components in the feed gas are separated. The remaining lower boiling point components are then introduced into the upper stage by way of the middle stage and the intermediate portion of the reboiler-condenser. The remaining components are condensed in the top portion of the upper stage so that monosilane and the lower boiling point components are separated, with the condensed monosilane becoming a reflux liquid. Ultra-high purity monosilane is thereby obtained and removed from the bottom portion of the upper stage of the unit.
