Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) oxygen generators solve the pain points of oxygen use in steel enterprises

Compared to other oxygen generators, chemical oxygen generators are rudimentary and complex to operate. They are generally not used in homes but in specific situations. Because they use chemical formulations, each operation is high cost. They are generally not considered for home use. What is now becoming widely accepted by the public is the use of oxygen generators that are simple and convenient.Pressure Swing Adsorption Oxygen Generator。

In recent years, with the rise of electric furnace restarts in China, many restarted electric furnaces can use oxygen-free conditions. Therefore, the construction cycle of oxygen generation equipment is long, and enterprises can only supply oxygen by purchasing liquefied oxygen for vaporization. Due to the continued boom in the steel market, the current market price of liquid oxygen ranges from 1200 to 3000 yuan/ton, so the oxygen cost of enterprises ranges from 1.7 yuan to 4.3 yuan/Nm3, which is much higher than the industry average.

Therefore, pressure swing adsorption oxygen generators solve the pain points of oxygen use for steel enterprises!

In addition, some enterprises are affected by environmental policies, local power restrictions, and other factors, and often face unplanned short-term shutdowns during production, thus leading to an awkward situation where production cannot continue. Deep-cold separation oxygen generation units are cumbersome to start and stop. Even under smooth conditions, cold start-up still requires 2-3 days. This oxygen generation method is not suitable for enterprises facing production shutdowns due to policy reasons.

Compared to the deep-cold oxygen generation method,Pressure Swing Adsorption Oxygen GeneratorThe technology has the characteristics of low oxygen production cost, simple start-up and shutdown, and convenient load adjustment, making it more suitable for electric furnace oxygen production. Pressure swing adsorption oxygen generator technology utilizes the strong interaction between the quadrupole moment of the special molecules used in pressure swing adsorption and nitrogen molecules to adsorb nitrogen onto the boiling stone adsorbent, with less oxygen adsorption, thus separating oxygen and nitrogen. Since its invention by Praxair in the 1950s, this technology has been promoted domestically, and China has become the world's largest market for pressure swing adsorption oxygen generation.

Pressure swing adsorption, or PSA, involves adsorption under high pressure to achieve gas separation and desorption under low pressure to regenerate the adsorbent. This method is based on the selective adsorption of oxygen and nitrogen components in the air by molecular sieves to separate air and obtain oxygen.

In pressure swing adsorption oxygen generators, the automatic switching of various system valves is controlled by the radio operation method.

     Pressure Swing Adsorption Oxygen GeneratorThe market application prospects are very broad. Pressure swing adsorption oxygen generator technology and equipment have the characteristics of low energy consumption and low maintenance cost. The entire set of equipment has a high degree of automation and can be unattended. It is convenient to stop, the device produces oxygen through adsorption, and qualified product oxygen can be produced within 20 minutes after startup. The construction cycle is short, vacuum pumps and blowers are conventional equipment, the production cycle is short, and it takes about 6 months from investment and construction to the production of qualified oxygen.
