    摘要: A method and apparatus for separating air to produce a gaseous oxygen product in which the air is separated in an air separation plant to conduct a cryogenic rectification process that utilizes higher and lower pressure compressed air streams. The higher and lower pressure compressed air streams are generated in two multistage compressors linked together so that the lower pressure compressed air stream is produced from intermediate stages and the higher pressure compressed air stream is produced from higher pressure compression stages. During turn-down operational conditions, one of the two multistage compressors can be shut down to decrease the flow of air and therefore, the production of the oxygen product.

    摘要: A system for separating air by cryogenic rectification whereby liquid production is increased by employing two separate turboexpanders, one which exhausts at a pressure no higher than that sufficient to feed the lower pressure column, the other which exhausts at a pressure no lower than that sufficient to feed the higher pressure column, and wherein one of the turboexpanders is fed with ambient temperature or modestly cooled feed air and preferably operates intermittently depending upon whether greater or lesser amounts of liquid product are desired.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for producing a krypton-xenon-rich stream in which a pipeline oxygen stream is removed from an oxygen pipeline at ambient temperature and then distilled in a cryogenic rectification plant to produce the krypton-xenon-rich stream from a column bottoms of a distillation column. The plant can generate its own refrigeration by way of a heat pump loop incorporating an expander or, alternatively, refrigeration can be added by means of a liquid oxygen reflux stream introduced into the top of such distillation column.

    摘要: An air separation method in which a liquid air stream, produced by vaporizing a pumped liquid oxygen stream, is introduced into a lower pressure column and optionally, a higher pressure column of an air separation unit. The liquid air stream is subcooled by extracting a main air feed to the higher pressure column from a main heat exchanger at a temperature warmer than the liquid air stream to increase argon recovery in an argon column connected to the lower pressure column. This temperature is selected such that the liquid air stream approaches an average temperature of the return streams being fed into the main heat exchanger from the higher and lower pressure columns at a range between about 0.2K and about 3K.
