Abstract

Dans un appareil principal de distillation d'air à double colonne comportant une colonne moyenne pression et une colonne basse pression, de l'oxygène de cuve de la colonne basse pression est épuré des hydrocarbures dans une première colonne auxiliaire, et la vapeur de tête de cette colonne est distillée dans une deuxième colonne auxiliaire chauffée à sa base par de l'air moyenne pression. De l'oxygène ultra-pur est produit en cuve de la deuxième colonne auxiliaire.
Application à la production d'oxygène ultra-pur pour l'industrie électronique.
