Process calculation for nitrogen generator adsorption tower
Thread Content
The calculation for adsorption dryers can be carried out by using the moisture content and dynamic adsorption rate to determine the amount of material that needs to be filled in the adsorption tower. How is the amount of material required for the adsorption tower in a nitrogen generation unit calculated? Is the height-to-diameter ratio determined based on the flow rate to calculate the filling volume?
It’s all about keeping your job at the company – who’s going to give it to you?
Just ask the molecular sieve manufacturer for the filling volume data
What he gives you are nitrogen production rates and recovery rates at different pressures and purities; other things still need to be figured out by you
It’s not that mysterious. The problem has been resolved
Yes, it is this data table that allows you to select the calculation parameters; I’m not sure what brand of carbon molecular sieve you are using
How was this problem solved? The diameter I calculated using a flow rate of 0.045 also does not meet the requirement of a height-to-diameter ratio greater than 1:2. I would like to ask whether it is the flow rate or the height-to-diameter ratio that matters.
