Oxygen is known as a life-sustaining element of the atmosphere. The gas constitutes 21% of the air we breathe.  It is one of the most commonly found elements on the planet earth.  It is a highly reactive element that combines with all elements except noble gases to form compounds. 

On the planet earth it is found bound in compounds such as silicates, oxides and water. The reactive element is also present in lakes, oceans and rivers. However, it is worthwhile to remember that in its molecular form oxygen occurs only in the atmosphere.

Role of oxygen in steelmaking

As mentioned earlier, the non-metallic gas is very important in the steel making. In order to sustain burning process, we require oxygen in a large in the steel manufacturing process. Generally, the steel companies oxygen in its liquefied form.

Liquid oxygen can be effectively transported and easily stored in large volumes. However, it is vaporized when it is time to use it in applications the liquid oxygen is vaporized into the gaseous form. Any material will burn ferociously in the presence of oxygen.  It is combined with a fuel gas for use in cutting, welding and brazing.

And, use of oxygen also increases the fuel temperature. Steel is cut using a jet of gaseous oxygen from oxy-fuel, plasma or laser processes. It is used in a process called thermal lancing which is highly effective in cutting though concrete materials and metals.  

 Use of oxygen in blast furnace iron making

O2 is widely used in the primary steel making with basic oxygen furnace and electric arc furnace. It is also used in the secondary processes.  Oxygen is used for enriching blast air during the process. It also proves handy in lancing clogged tap hole in the furnace.

For cutting of cast products use of the non-metallic gas is extensive. The casting machines needs to be fed with continuous supply of oxygen.

The industries prefer the cryogenic technology, notwithstanding the cost, because it is the most cutting-edge and generating liquid oxygen (LOX) has many advantages which are not available if you choose other technologies such as pressure swing adsorption even though it is cheaper. Cryogenic process is considered the most efficient technology and can generate oxygen in both liquid and gaseous forms. Moreover, storing and transporting LOX is easy besides it is less likely to leak compared to gaseous oxygen.

How costing of an oxygen plant is decided?

Oxygen plant manufactured with the cryogenic technology is built with the high quality materials and components. Air separation unit (ASU) is the most important part of the cryogenic based plants which contributing around 60% of the cost. ASU is the heart of the O2 plant as generation of high purity oxygen depends on its performance.

High grade stainless steel is used for manufacturing and fabricating the column since the very operation of the plant machinery is dependent on. Oxygen plant cost is mainly dependent on the ASU and air compressor. Moreover, the performance of the plant would definitely depend on the quality of the air separation column and the air compressor.  

The plant is fully automated with the world-class PLC system. All the processes of air separation are automatic requiring little no manual inputs. It is equipped with a high quality self-diagnostic system that sounds an alarm when something goes wrong within the plant machinery. The operator sitting in the control room notices it and sets it right.

How oxygen can be generated at home?

There are many chemical processes via which one can generate oxygen but they are not suitable for practical applications. For example, O2 can be produced by electrolysis of water those who studied chemistry in Senior Secondary School must know. However, the setup for generating oxygen through this process requires intricate electrical setup with mains AC current. It is a risky method if you are not adept in handling electric equipment. Moreover, there is no way you could store the gas generated through this process.

Production of oxygen with concentrator

However, there is a way for generating oxygen gas which can be used for consumption for undergoing oxygen therapy.  This could be best done by using an oxygen concentrator.  It is a small and portable device that takes atmospheric air which is then enriched to oxygen with purity between 90-95%.  It is the best equipment for generating oxygen at home for personal consumption. Moreover, it is easy to operate and maintain and is affordable.

The process of oxygen generation is also very simple. It is takes room air which is compressed and purified inside the concentrator. It is made up of motor and compressor, heat exchanger, surge tank, four way solenoid valve, molecular sieve beds and product tank with pressure regulator and flow meter adjusting valve.

Working principle of oxygen concentrators

The room air after being compressed is filtered into the concentrator directing the air in an uninterrupted stream.  After compression, the air moves into sieve bed filters where nitrogen is removed from the air. Sieve bed is filled with Zeolite which is a six-sided microscopic cube with holes on each side and helps to remove nitrogen from the air.  There are two sieve beds and air is directed into the first bed moving oxygen into the product tank. When the first bed is saturated with nitrogen the compressed air is moved into the 2^nd sieve bed generating oxygen and moving it into the product tank.

Two sieve beds are located in the concentrator. After air is first compressed in the concentrator, it is forced into the first sieve bed. Oxygen is sent into the product tank. The first sieve bed then gets filled up with nitrogen. Next, the gas flow is switched, and the compressed air is moved to the second sieve bed. The first sieve bed’s compressor is sent to the outside room, and the air from the product tank goes back into the first sieve bed.

The drop in pressure from the first sieve bed and the weakening of oxygen makes the Zeolite release nitrogen. The Oxygen and Nitrogen come back together and are released in the room as regular air. The air is then compressed and sent to the second sieve where Oxygen is moved through it to the Product Tank. The whole cycle starts over again with the first sieve after a few seconds.

Other important parts are the cooling system that keeps the portable oxygen concentrator from overheating, and the nasal cannula that delivers the purified oxygen after the oxygen has been passed through all the sieve bed filters. The cannula helps improve oxygen absorption.

If you want to produce high purity oxygen on large scale you can install oxygen plant.

PSA plant oxygen production

PSA oxygen plant uses the adsorption technology using twin towers filled with adsorbent material Zeolites. The PSA plant is made up of the following components: adsorbent containers, oxygen analyzer, PLC, valves and a tank.  When the ambient air goes through one of the towers containing molecular sieves filled with Zeolites where nitrogen and carbon dioxide gets adsorbed allowing oxygen to pass through and is collected as a product gas.  At fixed intervals of time, the active tower is switched to regeneration mode evaporating the adsorbed gas back into the atmosphere. In this PSA process, oxygen purity is monitored.  

Cryogenic oxygen plant

In the cryogenic process the ambient air is taken into the air separation unit where it is filtered and compressed. Then, the air is passed into purification unit where the impurities present in the air such as carbon dioxide, moisture and hydrocarbons are removed. Afterwards, the process air is moved through a series of heat exchangers cooling it to cryogenic temperature. After the liquefaction of the air, it is passed through high pressure distillation column separates oxygen from nitrogen and other gases based on their boiling points. Now the separated gas, oxygen is sent into a lower distillation column where it is distilled to required purification level.
