PRODUCTIVITY AND EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS IN AIR SEPARATION AND LIQUEFACTION PLANT INCLUDING RARE GAS RECOVERY.

Summary

THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CRITERIA ARE: SAFETY, RELIABILITY AND EFFICIENCY. SAFETY AND RELIABILITY ARE ABSOLUTES. EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT CAN PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS. FOR NEW PLANT, IMPROVEMENTS ARE POSSIBLE BY USING THE BEST PROCESS CYCLE, THE LATEST STATE-OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT. IN EXISTING PLANT THE TWO MAJOR WAYS ARE: BETTER OPERATION OF THE PLANT WITHIN THE LIMITS OF EXISTING EQUIPMENT BY USING IMPROVED TECHNIQUES AND INSTALLING NEW, LATEST STATE-OF-THE-TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT. THE PAPER DISCUSSES SOME OF THE AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGIES THAT HAVE LED TO SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN THE EFFICIENCY OF AIR SEPARATION PLANT. PROCESS AND OPERATIONAL FEATURES OF RARE GAS RECOVERY SYSTEMS ARE DISCUSSED.
