The issue of the source of oxygen produced
Thread Content
Currently, vinyl acetate is being produced, and a large amount of oxygen as a raw material is required； I would like to ask that when the raw material for production is oxygen and a large amount of it is required, is it better to purchase oxygen from elsewhere or to produce it using one’s own equipment?
Nitrogen can be produced using nitrogen generators; I haven’t heard of oxygen being produced in this way. It is possible to work together with air separation plants: you provide the site while they supply the oxygen tanks to set up an oxygen station; once the oxygen is used up, it can be delivered to you by truck for refilling

Large units can handle 100,000 cubic meters per hour, while smaller ones include military vehicle-mounted versions. There are large-scale, high-precision air separation units that use cryogenic methods for oxygen, nitrogen, argon (neon, krypton, xenon, helium), as well as those that produce these gases using adsorption methods based on molecular sieves. It depends on your needs. If you’re not keeping it confidential, please share your requirements regarding usage purposes, application methods, dosage, purity, etc.; I can offer some advice for you: lol
An air separation unit can be built; the oxygen can be used internally, while the nitrogen can be used internally or sold externally.
Oxygen is quite dangerous; in our old oxygen separation unit, all the oxygen was vented, but with the new unit in place, half of it is used internally while the other half is vented.
For the production of vinyl acetate, the required volume is approximately 10,000 cubic meters per hour. The gas needed for the reaction is 30% oxygen and 70% nitrogen. What would be a good source for these raw materials?
The best option here is equipment for the separation of cold air (referred to as air separation or oxygen generators). This is a well-established technology; Wanli’s oxygen generators can produce 10,000 cubic meters of oxygen with a purity of 99.6% in terms of oxygen content, as well as 10,000 cubic meters of nitrogen with a purity of 99.99% in terms of nitrogen content. They can also produce 390 m3/h of argon, with a nitrogen content of less than 10 ppm and an oxygen content of less than 2 ppm. When selecting equipment, it needs to be configured; just like when assembling a computer, one should choose devices that offer good value for money. According to the cost-performance ratio, the reference manufacturers are as follows: Kaifeng Yellow River, Kaifeng, Kaiyuan Air Separation Equipment Factory; in Sichuan, there is Chuan Kong; and among domestic manufacturers, Hangyang is the leading one. If money isn’t a concern, then the industry leaders in air separation are Linde and Air Liquide. References can be provided for equipment requirements and other details. But one thing – no involvement in business matters; P
Waste resulting from incomplete equipment sets.
Too much nitrogen is used, and too little oxygen.

Alternatively, a full liquefaction plant can be used, with the resulting liquid oxygen being stored for sale. A set of oxygen liquefaction equipment can also be installed.
Sure! ! Thank you!~~~
