General information
The undoubted advantage of serial AKS oxygen plants based on the pressure swing adsorption technology is the low cost of oxygen production where it is not subject to rigid purity requirements.
Structurally, GRASYS AKS adsorption oxygen plants consist of two adsorbent beds, the compressor unit, air pre-treatment unit, valve system and the plant control system. The adsorbent bed is a column filled with specially selected layers of adsorbents — granular substances capable of selectively adsorbing gas mixture components.
The array of applications of oxygen plants is extremely wide and includes such areas as autogenous oxygen production (apart from automated metal cutting); oxygen generators are also helpful in the silicate, pulp and paper, food and pharmaceutical industries, in fish farming, sewage treatment and ozonation plants feeding, solid waste incineration and in medicine.
