A Case Study of Welding Related Failures and Repair of the Reactor of Warm Argon Unit in Air Separation Plant-VSP

Abstract

Tonnage oxygen plants basically produce oxygen by the cryogenic liquefaction process. Besides oxygen, nitrogen and argon are also separated from the air in this method of oxygen making The basic process involves liquefying the air at cryogenic temperatures and separating it into its constituent components by fractional distillation one of the by products of these oxygen plants is argon.
