Tonnage oxygen

Motor-driven reciprocating compressors are sometimes used in tonnage oxygen plants. To maintain a uniform output, the plant must be supplied with a constant weight flow of air. As ambient conditions change weight flow, a control system as shown in Figure 8-40(f) can be used to keep the plant supplied with the proper quantity of air. The necessary steps in this system are ... [Pg.362]

It has been estimated that in both the INCO and Outokumpu processes, 1 tonne (1.1 ton) of oxygen replaces the combustion of about 0.20 to 0.25 tonne (0.22 to 0.28 ton) of oil.19 This ratio can be used to assess the economics of replacing fuel by tonnage oxygen. [Pg.210]

The potentially hazardous products from these plants must often be delivered using the public transport network, with corresponding environmental risk implications. An alternative concept is for an intensified plant to be operated at the customer s boundary fence, with the product being piped over. This is similar to the existing practice for tonnage oxygen supply, where the plant is installed within or adjacent to the customer s site, as described below. [Pg.29]
