Coal gasification industry is a large user of oxygen. Oxygen is used as gasification agent of pulverized coal in the process of coal gasification, such as the powder gasification, per ton of synthesis ammonia consumes 500~900m3 of oxygen; Oxygen is used as an oxidant to convert solid coal into a combustible gas mixture. In the process of coal liquefaction, oxygen is used as a vehicle for the conversion of coal from hydrogen-depleted solid hydrocarbons to hydrogen-rich liquid hydrocarbons. The consumption of oxygen required to produce 1 ton of coal is at least 0.3 tons of oxygen per ton of coal, and may also reach 1 ton per ton of coal. So the production of 10 million barrels per day of synthetic fuel device needs 10 to 20

Air separation plant operation

Operating of the whole air separation plant consists of following two steps: Trial run of single componentunit: That means the test, adjust and purge of each component before comprehensive trial run of the whole plant. This is some kind of inspection to the installation, to make sure that each single component is correctly installed and all the components are correctly connected. Startup and normal running of the whole plant. To ensure the safety of the whole plant, as well as the continuous running performance with reliable and high quality, all relative operators shall know well each of the components unit, as well as their instructions, major technical parameters, operating patterns and operating procedures, major operating data and their correlation, the reason of common
ASU(air separation plant supplier) is the plant to make raw air into liquid through compression recycle cryogenic method, then separate the liquid air into gas oxygen, gas nitrogen and gas argon with rectification process. ASU is widely applied into many industries such as traditional metallurgy, new coal chemical, big scale nitrogen fertilizer and professional gas supply. In brief, the ASU system process include: Compression system, Pre-cooling system, Purification system, Heat exchanging system Product delivery system Rectification column system Liquid pump Production compression system.
Fractional column is the general name for the whole set of equipment consisting of cold box, main heat exchanger, evaporator-condenser, sub-cooler, rectification column, turbine, cryogenic valves, pipes and meter tubes. Cooling, liquefaction and separation of process air, expansion and warm-up of oxygen-rich air and warm-up of product gas are all carried out inside the fractionation column. The rectification column is made of aluminum, and is the highest equipment inside the cold box. It is the class I pressure vessel. The rectification column is installed with packing. Air separation of is achieved in the rectification column. Through all kinds of I/O nozzles, the rectification column is connected with heat exchanger, vaporizer-condenser etc unit efficiently, to realize the liquefaction, separation of air, sub-cooling of liquid air and gas warm-up.
On 15th June, 2015, the liquid oxygen plant KDO-200Y designed and manufactured by our company had successful trial run in Shangri-La, Tibet. This is the first oxygen plant in Tibet area, which can supply gas oxygen for Shangri-La city residents centralized.
Recovery of LNG, Ar, N2+H2 from boiling gas of ammonia tank and vent gas of synthesis column; LN washing device; Recovery of CO, LNG, Ar and CO2 from off gas of acetic acid(consisting of about 75% CO); Recovery of H2, CO, LNG from off gas of coke oven(mainly consisting of H2, CH4, CO); Separation of CO2, CO, CH4, H2, N2, Ar, He etc. from off gas;      

Advanced air pre-cooling system

For the plant, which nitrogen capacity is not larger than oxygen capacity, waste nitrogen chilling type pre-cooling system is preferred. Such system is to cool compressed air with dry waste nitrogen. Towers in pre-cooling system are filled with structured packing, which features on little resistance, high efficiency, low power consumption (only with 1 unit of water pump), large feeding capacity and etc. Such pre-cooling system can also wash the process air. We are the first Chinese supplier who bring such waste nitrogen chilling pre-cooling system into configuration of small air separation plant.
Technical advantages of complete low pressure plant KDON-80/40; This plant is the smallest ASU with complete low pressureplant in China, which was initially developed by XLA in 1997. This plant is a revolutionary promotion for process of small plants. It took place of traditional KZON-50/100 as soon as its successful commissioning. Specific power consumption of KDON-80/40 is even 50% lower than that of KZON-50/100. Titled as “New and High tech product of Jiangsu Province”in 2003; Designed and manufactured with several know-how technologies; Simple operation and maintenance, cost-effective.   Technical advantages of complete low pressure plant KDON-170/100; This plant was developed in 2002, working on same process with KDON-80/40. It took place of traditional KZON-50/100. Specific power consumption of KDON-170/100 is 50% lower
The first set of ASU plant with hydrogen-free rectified argon process of our company is KDONAr-2500/2300/70Y, which was successfully commissioned on 2004. Height of cold box is 37 meters. The first set of liquid plant with hydrogen-free rectified argon process is KZOAr-1100Y/35Y, which was successfully commissioned in 2006 with stable running till now. Height of cold box is 35 meters. Up till now, it is the smallest hydrogen-free rectified argon plant in China.
Xinglu won the nitrogen air separation EPC project of Haerbin Nestle program for Messer group in 2012. The program is located in Shuangcheng City in Haerbin where its average temperature in Winter is lower than -30degC. During project design and equipment manufacturing, more factors should be thought about, such as influence of low ambient temperature to metal material, cold air influence on compressor mechanical performance, sandstorm environment to feed air filter of compressor and high extraction based in required compressor by customer. Organized by cryogenic separation technology research center of our company, the above problems are solved through analysis together with design institution and customer. The plant has been accepted successfully. In the beginning of 2013, when it is the most frozen season in Haerbin, the plant run steadily after commissioning, each parameter is better than
