Abstract: This disclosure discusses the problems associated with the design, layout, and construction of units and equipment in air separation units. The invention of this disclosure provides a process and apparatus using multiple discrete subcoolers. The nitrogen stream exiting the cryogenic distillation columns cools streams in the subcoolers. By having at least two subcoolers, the size of the nitrogen vent (nitrogen waste or product stream) can be reduced. This saves fabrication costs and improves reliability by reducing thermal stresses in the piping and equipment. Subcoolers cool rich liquid, lean liquid, liquid oxygen, and/or liquid air streams coming from the main heat exchanger or a system of separation columns. The disclosure also discusses integration of the subcoolers with the main heat exchangers.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for cryogenic distillation of air. In a system of air separation columns, all the air is taken to a high pressure which is 5 to 10 bar greater than a medium pressure. A portion of air, between 10% and 50% of the high pressure air stream, is boosted in a cold booster. This boosted air is then sent to an exchanger and a portion of it liquefies at the cold end of the exchanger. Part of the air is sent to one column of the column system, and another fraction is partly expanded in a Claude turbine. After expansion in the turbine, the air is sent to a medium pressure column, and a liquid stream is withdrawn for one of the columns of the system. The withdrawn stream is pressurized and vaporizes in the exchange line. The cold booster is coupled to either an expansion turbine, an electric motor, or a combination of the two.

The furnace may additionally include a process cooling section and one or several boiler feed water stream. This process includes passing the combustion air stream through a preheat exchanger system in the convective section to preheat the combustion air stream in indirect heat exchange with the reformer flue gas, wherein the temperature of the preheated combustion air is between about 200° F. and about 400° F. The temperature of the preheated combustion air may be between about 225° F. and about 350° F. The temperature of the preheated combustion air may be between about 250° F. and about 325° F. The process may further include passing the boiler feed water stream through heating coils in the process cooling section and the convective section.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for producing oxygen and noble gases by cryogenic distillation. A first stream of cooled and purified air is sent to a medium pressure column where it is separated. A first nitrogen enriched stream is withdrawn from the medium pressure column, and part of this stream is sent to a low pressure column. An intermediate stream is withdrawn from an intermediate level of the medium pressure column. This intermediate stream is then sent to the low pressure column. A stream, which is enriched in oxygen relative to the intermediate stream, is withdrawn from the bottom of the medium pressure column and sent to an auxiliary column. The auxiliary column also receives at liquid stream of nitrogen which is used for reflux. A second nitrogen rich stream is withdrawn from the top of the low pressure column. A second oxygen rich liquid stream, which is suitable for use as a product, is withdrawn from the low pressure column. Finally, a final oxygen enriched stream which is also enriched with krypton and xenon, is withdrawn from the auxiliary column.
