TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of nitrogen making equipment of low temperature rectification, specifically relates to a nitrogen making device of low temperature rectification. BACKGROUND
[0002] Steel production enterprises have a large demand for oxygen-enriched air and nitrogen. Among them, the pulverized coal is sprayed into the blast furnace by using oxygen-enriched air as carrier gas, participates in the reduction reaction with iron ore and air, provides fuel and heat for the blast furnace, and at the same time affects the balance of carbon, oxygen and other elements. Oxygen-enriched air regulates the oxygen supply in the blast furnace, which has a significant impact on the rate of reduction reaction and the temperature distribution in the furnace. At the same time, steel production enterprises also have a demand for nitrogen, mainly for the driving gas source required by the actuator of pneumatic valve, instrument gas source, pipeline replacement gas source, pipeline purging gas source, gas source required by top and bottom combined blowing of converter, and gas source required by hot metal desulfurization.
[0003] Therefore, the single-column nitrogen making equipment designed by using the low-temperature rectification method becomes one of the alternative solutions for gas source equipment of steel production enterprises because it can provide oxygen-enriched air and pure nitrogen as products. In addition, since the single-column nitrogen making equipment has a lower tower height and is easier to install than the traditional upper and lower tower rectification oxygen-nitrogen separation equipment, the single-column nitrogen making process is an optimal solution for steel production enterprises, which has low installation difficulty and can reasonably utilize oxygen-enriched air and nitrogen. However, due to the process of single-column nitrogen making, the waste nitrogen gas as oxygen-enriched air gas source still carries a high pressure during discharge, which needs to be decompressed before use in the subsequent process. According to the law of conservation of energy, the gaseous discharge carrying high energy means that more energy cost is consumed to produce a unit volume of nitrogen.
[0004] Although the single-column nitrogen making process is more convenient to install and has relatively small investment, the high operating cost will also bring a large operating cost to steel production enterprises. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the prior art to reduce the energy cost consumed in the production of nitrogen and at the same time to provide oxygen-enriched air to the target user as participating in the operation of the blast furnace, and the rectification equipment for oxygen-nitrogen separation with a lower height than the upper and lower tower rectification equipment is easy to install to meet the market demand and promote the product.

[0020] The usage instructions for this product are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0021] S1, the upstream pre-cooled and purified compressed air is delivered to the raw material air delivery main pipe 26 and is divided into two parts, i.e. the first part of compressed air and the second part of compressed air.
