Abstract

See full text

The water content of high purity nitrogen obtained by vacuum swing adsorptive fractionation of ambient air, is removed in a companion thermal swing drying system operated in association with the air fractionation system but at independent cycle time period, wherein water-laden nitrogen from the air fractionation system is passed through a desiccant bed of solid water-retaining adsorbent in said drying system while withdrawing dry nitrogen of high purity therefrom, and the adsorbed water is subsequently removed from said desiccant adsorbent by regeneration thereof with heated dry air effluent obtained in rinsing the air fractionating column with desorbed process nitrogen.
