Relationship between air compressor inlet volume and distillation tower efficiency
Thread Content
I need an air separation unit that can produce 6000 m3/h of oxygen. Some manufacturers use an air intake volume of 30,000, some use 29,500, and others use 33,000. Is the size of the air intake volume related to the efficiency of the distillation tower?
No matter how high the distillation efficiency, it cannot reach 100%; the air compressor should be selected with a larger capacity
First, one needs to look at the oxygen extraction rate; second, the liquid oxygen production amount. To put it simply, if your (oxygen gas + liquid oxygen production) / air volume * 0.2093 > 99%, then there’s basically no problem~~
