Use of a thermoacoustic refrigerator for reducing power inputs in installations for producing inert gases.

Author(s) : BONDARENKO V. L., LOSJAKOV N. P., DALAKOV P. I.

Summary

A crude neon-helium mixture is used for the production of neon. The mixture is extracted using air separation plants. After primary concentration, the crude mixture contains nitrogen in the form of admixtures (up to 9%) and hydrogen (up to 6%). Catalytic hydrogenation is used for purifying the crude neon-helium mixture of hydrogen. Some superfluous heat is produced while burning combustible impurities. Some of the heat emerging in this process can be used for supporting the operation of a thermoacoustic refrigerator. The scheme of the installation for the catalytic purification of the neon-helium mixture with the above refrigerator is described. The effectiveness of the installation for purifying the neon-helium mixture can be increased by 25-28% as the result of using the mixture.
