Nitrogen is an inert gas, which is often used in high temperature treatment of various materials or parts of the protective atmosphere. Therefore, impurities in nitrogen should be removed to a low level.

一般來說，由制氮機(jī)制取的氮?dú)庵泻趿啃∮?.5%時(shí)，宜采用脫氧劑直接除氧，含氧量為0.5-3%時(shí)，宜采用催化劑加氫除氧，含氧量大于3%時(shí)可采用分級催化除氧。

Generally speaking, when the oxygen content in nitrogen produced by nitrogen generator is less than 0.5%, Deoxidizer should be used for direct deoxidation; when the oxygen content is 0.5-3%, catalyst hydrogenation should be used for deoxidation; when the oxygen content is more than 3%, staged catalytic deoxidation can be used.

因?yàn)榈獨(dú)庵泻趿窟^高，按化學(xué)計(jì)量所需的氫氣量大，一次全部加入時(shí)，可能有爆 炸的危險(xiǎn)；且反應(yīng)中放出的熱量較大，易燒壞催化劑。因此，必 須嚴(yán)格控制加氫量進(jìn)行分級除氧。原料氮?dú)庵泻趿窟^高時(shí)，亦可用部分純氮稀釋原料氣，使混合氣體中含氧量小于3%再進(jìn)行加氫催化除氧。

Because the oxygen content in nitrogen is too high, the amount of hydrogen required by stoichiometry is large, and there may be a risk of explosion when all the nitrogen is added at one time; And the heat released in the reaction is large, which is easy to burn the catalyst. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the amount of hydrogenation for staged deaeration. When the oxygen content in the feed nitrogen is too high, the feed gas can also be diluted with some pure nitrogen to make the oxygen content in the mixed gas less than 3%, and then the hydrogen catalytic deoxidation can be carried out.

The typical process flow of removing impurity oxygen by deoxidizer is: nitrogen passes through catalytic deaerator, water cooler, adsorption dryer and gas filter to get pure nitrogen product.

采用加氫催化除氧的典型工藝流程：在氮?dú)庵屑舆m量氫氣（添加量為氮?dú)庵泻趿康亩兑陨希缓笸ㄟ^催化除氧器（除去氧）、水冷 卻器和吸附于燥器（除去水汽）、氣體過濾器（除去塵埃粒）后，即得純氮產(chǎn)品。

The typical process flow of hydrocatalytic deoxidization is adopted: firstly, appropriate amount of hydrogen is added into nitrogen (the addition amount is more than twice of the oxygen content in nitrogen), and then pure nitrogen product is obtained through catalytic deoxidizer (deoxidization), water cooler and adsorption in dryer (moisture removal) and gas filter (dust removal).

當(dāng)?shù)獨(dú)庵泻趿枯^大，可采用分級加氫催化除氧工藝，氮?dú)庠谶M(jìn)入催化除氧器前，需要嚴(yán)格控制加氫量，通過催化除氧器1（一次除氧），再加入少量氫氣進(jìn)入催化除氧器2進(jìn)行二次除氧。

When the oxygen content in nitrogen is large, the staged hydrogenation catalytic deoxidation process can be used. Before the nitrogen enters the catalytic deoxidizer, the amount of hydrogenation should be strictly controlled, and a small amount of hydrogen is added into the catalytic deoxidizer 1 (primary deoxidization) for secondary deoxidization.

如果原料氮?dú)庵泻踺^高，對純氮又要求不許有過量氫氣存在。此時(shí)，氮?dú)饧兓b置采用先加氫催化除氧，再用活 性氧化銅等除氫的方法純化氮?dú)?，其典型的工藝流程為：在原料氮?dú)庵懈鶕?jù)氧的含量，添加稍為過量的氫（按化學(xué)計(jì)量）后通過催化除氧器除氧，再通過電加熱器和氧化反應(yīng)除去氮?dú)庵械倪^量氫。常用的脫氫劑除活 性氧化銅外，也可用銀分子篩等。

If the oxygen content in the nitrogen is high, the pure nitrogen should not have excessive hydrogen. At this time, the nitrogen purification unit adopts the method of hydrogenation catalytic deoxidation first, and then active copper oxide to purify nitrogen. The typical process flow is as follows: according to the oxygen content in the raw nitrogen, add a little excess hydrogen (according to stoichiometry), deoxidize it through the catalytic deaerator, and then remove the excess hydrogen in the nitrogen through electric heater and oxidation reaction. In addition to active copper oxide, silver molecular sieve can also be used as dehydrogenation agent.
