The Argon Rectification System from Gaztron Engineering Pvt. Ltd. offers a cutting-edge solution for achieving high-purity argon gas separation. By utilizing multiple rectification columns, condensers, and sub-cooling technologies, this system is designed to efficiently extract, purify, and process argon from air separation units. The advanced crude argon columns ensure oxygen content is reduced to ?2 ppm, meeting the stringent requirements of various industries.
Gaztron’s system is built for precision, reliability, and energy efficiency, making it a preferred choice for industrial gas applications.
Key Components and Operational Workflow of the Argon Rectification System:
-
Argon Fraction Extraction:
- Argon fractions are extracted from the middle section of the upper column and introduced into Crude Argon Column I for initial rectification.
- The process significantly reduces the oxygen content in the argon stream.
-
Crude Argon Column I (Initial Rectification):
- The crude liquid argon, serving as the reflux for Crude Argon Column I, is delivered by a liquid pump.
- The liquid at the bottom of Crude Argon Column I returns to the upper column for further rectification.
- Gas Extraction: The gas extracted from the top of this column is transferred to Crude Argon Column II for advanced purification.
-
Crude Argon Column II (Advanced Rectification):
- In Crude Argon Column II, the remaining oxygen and argon are separated, producing a crude argon gas with oxygen content ≤2 ppm.
- The crude argon gas is condensed into liquid by the Crude Argon Condenser and flows back into Crude Argon Column II as reflux.
-
Crude Argon Condenser:
- The cold source for the condenser is liquid air extracted from the sub-cooler.
- After heat exchange with the crude argon gas, the liquid air is evaporated and returned to the upper column for rectification.
