Abstract

An adsorption generators of oxygen and nitrogen using a method of «Pressure swing adsorption», has specific features inherent only to them. Some of them are covered in present article. It is given the attention to fact that generator of oxygen working on synthetic zeolite and generator of nitrogen using as adsorbent a carbon molecular sieve manufacturing simultaneously with air separation make it dehydration. The effect of dampness in initial air to work of generators is analyzed. It is marked that at work of the generator of oxygen a significant nonisothermal effects are observed. The reasons of their display are considered. The data of specific power inputs on reception of 1 м3 oxygen or nitrogen from air are shown.
