ADL Cryogenic Oxygen Plant

Air is sucked from the atmosphere through the Air filter of the Air compressor and compressed to the desired pressure for further processing and purification to finally produce Oxygen & Nitrogen.

Over 80% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes. Moreover, the generation of compressed air accounts for more than 90% of an oxygen plant’s total electricity bill. Accordingly we now compare the advantages and disadvantages of the Air compressors.

PROCESS FLOW STARTS FROM THE LEFT AT THE AIR COMPRESSOR AND ENDS ON THE EXTREME RIGHT AT THE CYLINDER FILLING STATION




Air Compressor ADL Local Indian Piston Compressors
With Latest ADL Screw Compressors With old type 4 Stage Piston reciprocating Air compressors.
Easy floor mounting Air cooled – compact Old oil lub ingersol air compressor piston type under breakdowns. Desined for 8 hrs duty is used for 24 hrs duty by indian suppliers
zero maintenance !!!!! Chinese oil piston air compressor
No Civil Foundation is Required as it is floor mounted. Complicated –costly concrete Foundation is required
Installation Time: 1 Hour Very Compact design takes less space Installation Time: 30 Days minimum
* Very Bulky design takes lot of space
* The complex foundation for the air compressor takes minimum 35 days additionally
Air Cooled type- no cooling water required. Water cooled type needs mineral water plant with minimum 30 to 100,000 Liters per day .
Oil consumption on hourly basis as raw material is zero Needs about 1 to 2 Liters /Hour
All 4 pistons and cylinders need heavy consumption of oil
Fully Automatic simple Operation Fully Manual operation - old type complicated
Low power consumption High power consumption
Noise Level - only 72 Dba Noise Level is very high due to knocking of cylinders and vibration of the compressor frame
Operational spares required for 1 Year:
1 NO. - AIR FILTER
1 NO. - OIL FILTER
1 NO. - OIL SEPARATOR (AFTER 2 YEARS)

  • BREAKDOWN OF PARTS LIKE CROSSHEAD, CONNECTING ROD OR CRANKSHAFT
  • and other parts not mentioned above CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME
  • very high operational Spares required due to reciprocating design and high maintenance.
    		•
    Direct drive motor built into the Air Compressor V Belt driven Motor drives the air compressor through rubber V belts which are manually adjusted and prone to breakage.loss of power is over 10% on account of slippage
    Noise Level less than 74 Db (Acceptable Sound) Noise Level more than 88 Db (Need Ear Plugs)
