The invention relates to a device and a method for cryogenic separation and purification of
nitrogen and
liquid ammonia. According to the method, the air as a
raw material sequentially passes through an
air compression system for compression, a pre-cooling
system for cooling, and a purification
system for
impurity removal, followed by entering a fractionating
tower; the air entering the fractionating
tower is divided into two parts, wherein one part of the air enters a pressure boost end for boosting pressure, is subjected to heat exchange through a cooler, and enters a main
heat exchanger, the air is pumped by the lower portion of the main
heat exchanger to enter an expansion end for heat insulation expansion, and the expanded air is recuperated by the main
heat exchanger and discharged out of a cooling box; the other part of the air directly enters the main heat exchanger to be cooled to a
liquefaction point and then enters a single-stage rectifying
tower for rectification. A
nitrogen product is pumped from the top of the single-stage rectifying tower, is recuperated to a normal temperature by the main heat exchanger, and enters a
nitrogen collection unit through a valve, a
liquid ammonia product is pumped from a main cooled
liquid nitrogen side, the
liquid ammonia product and a small part of returned liquid
ammonia are subjected to heat exchange and
supercooling through a liquid
ammonia supercooler, and subsequently, the liquid
ammonia product enters a liquid ammonia collection unit through a valve. According to the device and the method for cryogenic separation and purification of the nitrogen and the liquid ammonia, the process flow is simple in operation, high in extraction rate, low in
energy consumption, and meanwhile, device investment costs are low.
