Principle of nitrogen production by pressure swing adsorption air separation
The main components in the air are nitrogen and oxygen, so the adsorbent with different adsorption selectivity for nitrogen and oxygen can be selected, and the appropriate process can be designed to separate nitrogen and oxygen to produce nitrogen.
Both nitrogen and oxygen have quadrupole moments, but the quadrupole moment of nitrogen (0.31A) is much larger than that of oxygen (0.10A), and under a certain pressure, the ability of oxygen to be adsorbed in carbon molecular sieve is much stronger than nitrogen (the force of oxygen and the surface ions of the molecular sieve is strong, as shown in Figure 1). Therefore, when the air passes through the adsorption bed equipped with carbon molecular sieve adsorbent under pressure, oxygen is adsorbed by the molecular sieve, and nitrogen is enriched in the gas phase due to less adsorption and flows out of the adsorption bed, so that oxygen and nitrogen are separated to obtain oxygen. When the molecular sieve adsorbs oxygen to near saturation, the air is stopped and the pressure of the adsorption bed is reduced, the oxygen adsorbed by the molecular sieve can be desorbed, and the molecular sieve can be regenerated and reused. Two or more adsorption beds can be switched in turn to produce nitrogen continuously. As shown below, A is oxygen and B is nitrogen.

PSA nitrogen production and filtration system: Clean compressed air from the air process tank is fed into two fills for adsorption agent (composite bed structure) pressure swing adsorption separation system, clean compressed air from the bottom of the adsorption tower into the gas after diffusing through a special air diffuser, it uniformly enters the adsorption tower for oxygen and nitrogen adsorption separation, and then from nitrogen flows out of the outlet, enters the nitrogen buffer tank, and is filtered again by the nitrogen filter to complete the nitrogen production process then, after pressure equalization and decompression (to normal pressure), the adsorbent desorbs the adsorbed impurity components (mainly O2 and a small amount of CO2, H2O) to complete the regeneration of the adsorbent. The two adsorption towers operate alternately and continuously feed into the original feed air, continuous production indicators to meet the production needs of nitrogen.

VRP Series Varnish Removal Oil Purifier
Application
Used in gas and steam turbine, compressor, to remove dissolved and suspended soft pollutants in oil products, sludge and other harmful substances. Avoid turbine failures and expensive oil changes due to paint film problems. When the film is formed, the loss of production is very high. The initial formation of the film is known as a soft pollutant, caused by hot spots in the system, such as bearings, pumps, and high flow on-line filtration. Recent studies have found that the existence of soft pollutants can be divided into dissolved state and suspended state, by removing these soft oxides can avoid the production of paint film. Once the film forms, it will clog valves, filters and other small links, and the life of the oil will be significantly reduced.
The formation of cleaning film will cause the following adverse consequences: valve adhesion, loss of control, resulting in unit failure or startup failure; Filter plugging, limiting oil flow, resulting in oil temperature rise and wear increase; Heat exchange failure, oil temperature rise; Sandpaper surface, increase component wear; Forming paint on the bearing, limiting flow, increasing wear and temperature; Frequent oil changes and system flushes. When the soft pollutants are dissolved in the oil, typically when the oil temperature is above 40℃, they cannot be removed by ordinary mechanical filtration or electrostatic filtration, and these soft pollutants show natural magnetism. For polar absorption, the cooler metal surface "cold spot", i.e. the valve and cooler. When the temperature of the oil is lowered, the thermal stability of the soft pollutants is less than that of the oil, so they are more likely to bake hard on hot surfaces, such as axial shafts.
VRP paint film cleaner. It achieves revolutionary and efficient removal of soft pollutants (dissolved and suspended) from oil products, including gas and steam turbines and compressors under high temperature operation. The warm oil is pumped from the lowest point at the bottom of the tank to the VRP paint film purifier by the equipment's own transfer pump. After cooling treatment (using the thermal stability of the paint film is worse than that of oil), the paint film, particulate matter and moisture are removed by the filter element with wood fiber as the raw material (no need to use ion-exchange resin filter material, greatly saving the cost of use).
Features:
● Increase system reliability and stability. ● No more shutdowns and startup failures caused by paint film.
● No longer need to clean the tank and system flushing. ● Increase jacking oil pressure, more stable bearing temperature.
● Improve the life of oil products, blood additives and system components, such as bearings, valves, seals, etc.
● Great savings can be achieved by avoiding turbine failure and extending the life of oil products. Features:

why removing oil varnish?
The causes of varnish in industrial oil systems. We looked at how oil degradation produces submicron that eventually cluster and stick to metal surfaces, turning into varnish. Left unchecked, varnish can lead to varying levels of equipment failure, costly downtime, expensive repairs or, in the worst cases, complete replacement.
When the lubricant inevitably oxidizes and varnish precursors are formed, varnish removal systems are necessary to prevent degradation products from accumulating to the point where varnishing occurs.
Why be concerned about varnish?
Varnish contamination has become a significant maintenance problem in many critical hydraulic and lubrication oil applications, such as gas turbines, compressors, and hydraulic presses. Varnish contamination in Gas Turbine Lube Oil Systems has been a particularly high profile issue over the last decade. A very small amount of varnish that plates out on the metal surfaces within the lube oil system (such as a servo-valve) can cause inefficient operation or prevent the system from starting properly, resulting in a fail-to-start condition or in some cases a unit trip.
how can it be prevented or eliminated?
Our Varnish Removal Systems (VRP) were developed to address the need to properly remove varnish (also known as lacquer, sludge, or tar) commonly found in various lubrication and hydraulic systems. Our process utilizes either granular adsorbent media or depth media filter elements to effectively remove dissolved and suspended oil degradation products (i.e. the cause of varnish). Varnish removal is accomplished with oxidatively stable media, engineered to selectively remove only the varnish-causing contaminants without disturbing the oil's additive package.
