Embodiment Construction

[0038] figure 1 Schematically shows an embodiment of the production method according to the invention, which produces no or almost no NO 2 NO / N of impurities 2 Gaseous mixtures, e.g. NO / N containing about 4% NO and nitrogen as remainder 2 gaseous mixture.

[0039] According to the method, the following successive steps are performed:

[0040] - (at 31) feeding impure nitrogen with the following composition: O 2 ≤50ppmv, CO≤5ppmv, CO 2 ≤300ppmv,H 2 O≤67ppmv, and N as remainder 2 (about 99.5%v)

[0041] - Purging of gaseous nitrogen containing the above-mentioned impurities is performed by the following steps:

[0042] i) (at 32) contacting the impure nitrogen with, for example, a nickel catalyst to eliminate or convert at least a portion of the O 2 type impurities, especially by converting them into water vapor or H 2 O,

[0043] ii) (at 33) contacting the nitrogen purified in sub-step i) with a molecular sieve such as 10A° zeolite to eliminate at least a portion of ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing NO / N 2 A method for a gaseous mixture, comprising the steps of: achieving a process comprising at least O 2 Purification of impure gaseous nitrogen from impurities of the type, and obtaining O containing a NO content of less than 20% by volume and a proportion of less than 5ppmv 2 Type impurity and H in proportion less than 40ppmv 2 A mixture of NO and pure nitrogen as an O-type impurity. NO / nitrogen mixtures are subject to make-up dilution with pure nitrogen. This NO / nitrogen mixture can be used by inhalation to treat pulmonary vasoconstriction in adults or children, especially neonates with primary pulmonary hypertension or patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing NO / N 2 A method of encapsulating a gaseous mixture and subsequently enclosing it in a container, in particular one or more gas cylinders. Background technique [0002] NO / N 2 The gaseous mixture is commonly used to treat pulmonary vasoconstriction in adults, children and especially neonates with primary pulmonary hypertension and in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. [0003] These NO / N 2 The mixture is usually enclosed in cylinders made of steel and aluminum and contains 100 to 1000 ppm by volume of NO and nitrogen (N 2 ). These bottles typically have a water equivalent capacity of 2 to 50 liters. [0004] Encapsulation - that is to say the bottling of these mixtures - is done at the Gas Bottling Centre. For this, one or more mixtures of NO and nitrogen are produced until the desired concentration of NO in nitrogen is obtained. [0005] However, it can happen that the NO / nitrogen mixtures th...
