PSA process for nitrogen generation

 

Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA)

The nitrogen generation plant based on the PSA-process consists of two adsorption towers filled with Carbon Molecular Sieve (CMS). Compressed and purified air is passed through the adsorption towers. Mainly Oxygen is adsorbed on the CMS and Nitrogen enriched gas leaves the tower. The oxygen concentration can be reduced to almost all required levels. During adsorption in one tower the second tower is totally regenerated just by depressurisation to ambient pressure. The oxygen enriched off gas with 30 - 35% volume Oxygen content is vented to atmosphere. About one minute the adsorption in one adsorption tower the process controller switches over to the second tower and the first one is regenerated.

Membrane process for nitrogen generation
Membrane Technology


The membrane system consists mainly of parallel membrane modules, inside equipped with thousands of hollow fibres. Compressed and purified air passes through these hollow fibres which separate the oxygen molecules from air. Due to the different molecule diameters of the air gases, the oxygen molecules penetrate faster through the hollow fibres surface than the nitrogen molecules. Nitrogen enriched gas leaves the hollow fibres as the gas produced. Mainly the flow velocity through the hollow fibres effects the remaining oxygen content.
