Embodiment 1

[0032]An embodiment of the present invention provides a low-temperature purification method for helium gas. The method performs low-temperature purification of helium gas through a pipeline system, and sequentially connects a precooling heat exchanger, a low-temperature heat exchanger, and a purifier installed in the pipeline system. That is to say, the low-temperature purification method for helium in this embodiment can be implemented on any equipment in the prior art that is equipped with a pre-cooling heat exchanger, a low-temperature heat exchanger, and a purifier, and the specific structure of the equipment is not included in the present invention. Do limit.

[0033] see figure 1 , the low-temperature purification method for helium comprises the steps of:

[0034] (1) Preparation before purification: close the inlet valve and outlet valve in the pipeline system, keep the pipeline inside the pipeline system unblocked, feed helium raw material gas into the pipeline system...

Embodiment 2

[0045] Based on the same inventive concept, this embodiment provides a preferred device for implementing the helium low-temperature purification method of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, see figure 2 , the helium low-temperature purification device includes a pipeline system 9, a precooling heat exchanger 2, a low-temperature heat exchanger 3, a purifier 4, a Dewar tank 1, a vacuum pump 5 and a helium cylinder group 6, and the above-mentioned pre-heating is carried out through the pipeline system 9. The cold heat exchanger 2, the cryogenic heat exchanger 3, the purifier 4, the Dewar tank 1, the vacuum pump 5 and the helium cylinder group 6 are connected as a whole.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the technical field of chemical gas separation, and in particular relates to a helium low-temperature purification method and device, and a helium refrigeration cycle system. Background technique [0002] The nitrogen removal and neon-helium separation processes in the neon-helium extraction device occur at low temperature, and the cooling capacity is provided by the helium refrigeration cycle system, and the final cooling temperature needs to reach 24K. The helium required by the helium refrigeration cycle system at the initial stage of operation is all from the external helium raw material gas, which still contains traces of neon, oxygen, nitrogen, and water with impurity concentrations of PPM (parts per million concentration). The flat expander is small in size, only the size of a bottle cap, and is very precise. Impurities freezing in an ultra-low temperature environment will damage the blades of the expander, resulting i...
