The above conventional technology does not take into consideration the point of stably supplying high-purity product hydrogen gas even when the raw material gas flow rate and composition fluctuate, and when increasing the raw material gas amount or decreasing low boiling point components, heat is generated. The heat load on the exchanger is larger than the design-based heat load, and the temperature of the return off-gas on the low-temperature side is constant compared to the design conditions, so the temperature difference in the heat exchanger increases and the feed gas It becomes impossible to cool down to the specified temperature, and the purity of the hydrogen gas product decreases. In addition, when the raw material gas is reduced or the low boiling point component is increased, the heat load on the heat exchanger becomes smaller than the design-based heat load, and the temperature difference of the heat exchanger becomes smaller. If the gas is cooled too much below a predetermined temperature, the purity of the product hydrogen gas improves, but the amount of raw material gas liquefied increases, resulting in a problem in that the rate of recovery of the product hydrogen gas decreases.

The difference between FIG. 2 and FIG. 1 is that a pressure regulator 10 is provided in the middle of the off-gas conduit B, and the setting value of the pressure regulator 10 is changed by the temperature controller 8, thereby controlling the pressure regulating valve 6. This is what I decided to do. That is, when the flow rate and composition of the raw gas fluctuate and the temperature of the low temperature separator 4 becomes higher than the set value, the temperature controller 8 causes the pressure controller 1 to change.
The set value of 0 is changed, and as a result, the pressure control valve 6 is gradually opened, and the evaporation pressure of the off-gas, which had been expanded to 3 K9/crl G by the liquid level control valve 5, is adjusted to be low. In other words, the evaporation pressure of the off-gas is the pressure controller 10.
However, in response to fluctuations in the flow rate and composition of the raw material gas, the setting value of the pressure regulator 10 is changed stepwise by the temperature regulator 8, and the pressure is adjusted as necessary. The amount of off-gas is automatically adjusted by the liquid level control valve 5, and since -pyrotechnics is high, it is not affected by the change in the secondary side pressure due to the control of the pressure control valve 6. In this way, instead of controlling the flow rate of off-gas, the evaporation pressure is controlled and its ixAm degree is lowered, thereby increasing the temperature difference on the cold end side of the heat exchanger 3 and controlling the raw material gas to a predetermined level. Can be kept at a cooling temperature of Moreover, contrary to the above, when the flow rate and composition of the raw material gas fluctuate and the temperature of the low temperature separator 4 becomes lower than the set value, the raw material gas is maintained at a predetermined cooling temperature by the control opposite to that described above.
