Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING AT LEAST ONE AIR PRODUCT, AIR SEPARATION SYSTEM, METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING ELECTRICAL ENERGY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/003808
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing at least one air product, wherein an air separation system (100) is used which has a primary air compressor (10), a primary heat exchanger (20) and a distillation column system (30), and which comprises a first and a second operation mode, wherein, in the first operating mode, at least one liquid air product (LIN, LOX) produced in the distillation column system (30) is saved and, in the second operating mode, the at least one air product (LIN, LOX, LAIR) saved in the first operating mode and/or at least one additional liquid air product is supplied to the distillation column system (30). The method is characterized in that, in the second operating mode, at least one gaseous pressure flow (b - g) at a temperature level which lies below a hot-side temperature of the primary heat exchanger (20) is supplied to a cold compressor (45), compressed in the cold compressor (45) from a first above-atmospheric pressure level to a second above-atmospheric pressure level, and is supplied to at least one distillation column (31, 32) of the distillation column system (30) at the second above-atmospheric pressure level. The invention further relates to a corresponding air separation system (100) and to a method and to a device for producing electrical energy.
