Air separation investment

2016-04-13View Original

Thread Content

The project plans to install an air separation unit with a capacity of 40,000 units; the purity of the oxygen required is not very high – ≥90% is sufficient. Please analyze whether deep cooling should be achieved using PSA technology, and what would be the approximate investment costs for each approach

For our 6500 unit, the air separation system costs 22 million, and the investment in compressors and turbines amounts to 40,000; it’s estimated to be over 100 million

Are you pressure swing adsorption? If it’s cryogenic, it seems to cost 200 million

We are Deep Cold; I have worked on projects of 28,000 units, and those on a scale of 52,000 units are quite large

For an oxygen content of 90%, the specific consumption of the two methods is estimated to be similar~~ However, the initial investment and ongoing maintenance costs for cryogenic air separation are higher; if you have customers who need high-purity nitrogen or argon, then cryogenic nitrogen production could be considered~~

Thank you. So, how much investment is needed for an oxygen production system worth 40,000?

Ordos, could you give some guidance?
Reply #82016-04-13
Personally, I think it’s probably around 150 million~~

Where in Ordos is it? I’ve never heard of such a large project ? ?
