Abstract

During the work of air separation plants the significant amount of so-called waste gases besides the basic products (nitrogen, oxygen, argon) is formed. In tonnage air separation plants the specified waste gases are used for preliminary water-evaporating cooling of compressed  air in the scrubber system. In air separation plant of average productivity, working on cycles of high and average pressure, the various refrigerating machines are usually used for these purposes. On the example of the plant «КжКАж-0,45» it is shown that water-evaporating cooling can reduce the power consumption by refrigerating machine working in structure of the heat setting complex. The urgency of the problem of power consumption reduction by the air separation plants due to the water-evaporating cooling will grow at increase of a share of expenses for the electric power in the operational charges given in normative term of its service.
