Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cryogenic distillation unit, in particular for air distillation, of the type comprising on the one hand a distillation apparatus comprising at least one cryogenic distillation column and at least one heat exchanger, and other part of the thermal insulation means of this device. It applies for example to oxygen production units on board oil platforms at sea or on barges.
- cryogenic distillation columns and all the associated equipment operating at low temperature are arranged in a "cold box", generally of parallelepiped shape, filled with a loose insulator such as expanded perlite.
- This insulator thermally protects each component both from the outside temperature and that of the other components having a different temperature.
- This type of material holds its qualities of insulator at the same time of a weak thermal conductivity ( ⁇ 0.05 W / m. ° C) and of a high pressure drop, favorable vis-à-vis the phenomenon of convection.
- the invention therefore has the pure object of providing a cryogenic distillation unit comprising an effective protection against leaks of cryogenic fluid.
- the subject of the invention is a cryogenic distillation unit of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the distillation apparatus is arranged in a double-envelope enclosure, the inter-wall of which contains a solid insulator.
- the distillation unit according to the invention may include one or more of the following characteristics: the interior envelope of the enclosure is made, at least in its lower part, of a resilient metal, in particular of stainless steel or of aluminum; the solid insulator situated around and above the distillation apparatus is a loose insulator, in particular of expanded perlite; a solid insulator supporting the inner envelope of the enclosure is interposed between the bottoms of the two envelopes; the distillation column and the heat exchanger are supported by feet which seal the bottom of the inner casing and rest on that of the outer casing; - There is provided at least one chimney for access to auxiliary equipment of the distillation apparatus such as pumps or valves, this chimney passing through the double envelope and being closed by a removable pad;
- the heat exchanger and possibly other equipment inside the enclosure and whose operating temperature is different from that of the di-stillation column, are provided with additional insulation, in particular by swaddling with an insulator sheet or strip;
- the inner casing is equipped with a valve for limiting its inner pressure;
- the enclosure is provided with means for introducing a dry gas, in particular inert, in the inner envelope and / or in the inter-wall;
- inter-wall is equipped with a valve for limiting its internal pressure
- the enclosure is fixed to a structure at sea such as an oil platform or a barge; - The enclosure is fixed to a base itself fixed to a base of said structure by means of stilts.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically, in vertical section, a distillation unit according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional view taken along line II-II of Figure 1.
- the air distillation unit 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 essentially comprises a double wall enclosure 2 in the interior space 3 of which are arranged a double air distillation column 4, heat exchangers 5, connecting pipes 6 and cryogenic accessories such as cryogenic pumps 7, cryogenic valves 8, etc.
- Column 4 consists of two distillation columns, medium pressure and low pressure respectively, as is well known in the art. These two columns 4A and 4B are arranged side by side, as seen in Figure 2, but they have been brought back to the median plane in Figure 1 for clarity of the drawing. In addition, the distillation unit naturally includes all the usual accessories and equipment.
- Enclosure 2 has a double envelope.
- the inner casing 9 includes a flat bottom 10, a cylindrical side wall 11 and a domed roof 12, and is made of stainless steel.
- the outer envelope 13 includes a flat bottom 14, a cylindrical side wall 15 and a domed roof 16, and is made of carbon steel.
- the bottom 14 can also be made of stainless steel.
- the insulator 17 supports the inner envelope 9, but it is the bottom 14, and therefore the base 20, for example consisting of a steel frame, on which this base is placed, which support the weight of the constituents of the unit located inside the enclosure 2.
- this base 20 is fixed to the support structure 21, for example a metal bridge of an oil platform or barge, by means of piles 22 which provide an air gap 23 between them.
- An access chimney 24, closed by a removable buffer 25, passes through the flysheet 12, 16 of the enclosure 2 and leads to the components requiring maintenance, such as the pumps 7 and the valves 8.
- Each component operating at a temperature different from that of column 4 is provided with additional insulation 26 in the form of swaddling with glass wool or the like. These are in particular the heat exchangers 5, the pipes 6 connected to the hot end of the latter, and the chimney 24. Thus, the convection phenomena are made minimal.
- a pipe 27 for supplying dry nitrogen gas at ambient temperature, provided with adjustment valves 28, makes it possible to maintain the space 3 and the inter-wall of the enclosure under a slight overpressure. This allows on the one hand to inert these volumes, and on the other hand to avoid in them the appearance condensation phenomena which could put them in depression.
- the roofs 12 and 16 are each fitted with a pressure limiting valve 29. It will be noted that the cylindrical and domed shape of the enclosure promotes its resistance to overpressure.
- the cold is practically not transmitted to the outer envelope, and a fortiori to the base 20 or to the underlying metal structure 21. The risks of elements breaking by embrittlement are thus eliminated.
