Investment is the most important factor while purchasing an oxygen plant for your manufacturing business. We offers the best cost of oxygen plant setup in the industry. However, the cost depends on many factors including capacity, technology and quality. Even though our plant machinery is manufactured with superior cryogenic technology and solid designing yet our costing remains the most competitive in the industry. However, you should keep in mind that costing includes shipping, dispatching, installation and startup at the client site. Our engineer visits the client site to implement the setup.
For starting an oxygen manufacturing plant, you must study the demand and supply of oxygen in your area if you are looking to start retailing. For captive use, you have to determine your requirements necessary for sustain your manufacturing operations. However, it is imperative for starting an O2 plant to get various permissions and licenses including incorporation certificate, pollution NOC from State Pollution Control Board, factory license, fire safety clearance and consent from Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organization (PESO). Demand for oxygen for medical and industrial purposes has been growing every year.
Liquid oxygen plant uses cryogenic air separation technology considered the most efficient and reliable. The process takes atmospheric air which is then filtered for removal of dust and compressed in the air compressor. In this technique, the constituent gases of air will be separated after the processed air is cooled to cryogenic temperature through a series of heat exchangers. However, the cryogenic process cools the atmospheric air to a temperature of -181 degree Celsius. And, oxygen liquefies at this temperature. Afterwards, liquid oxygen is extracted and distilled in the low pressure column to achieve the desired purity. Subsequently, it is directed into a cryogenic storage tank for storing or transportation.
Liquid nitrogen (LN2) plant takes atmospheric air through an inlet of the air separation unit (ASU). Then, the air is filtered and compressed in the air compressor. Here, the compressed air enters purification unit for removing impurities such as hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and moisture. The purified air is cooled to cryogenic temperature. At this point, the air is separated into constituent gases such as nitrogen, oxygen and argon. The liquefied air is separated into different gases according to their boiling points. The product gas, nitrogen in this case, is distilled in the low pressure distillation column to achieve the desired purity specifications.
Acetylene is a highly flammable fuel gas which is used in various industries including cutting, grazing, heating, welding, etc. The fuel gas is produced by chemical reaction between calcium carbide and water. The reaction generates acetylene with by-products such as calcium hydroxide and heat. Water is used to moderate the heat produced during the reaction to prevent hazards such as explosions. We manufacture acetylene plants using the ASME certified materials that can withstand extreme pressure and temperature.
Prospects of starting oxygen plant business are very bright. However, you must understand it is a capital-intensive business but returns are impressive. Starting is easy as you just have to find a reputed manufacturer Company. It is imperative that you design a well-thought out business plan covering arrangement of funds, licenses, permissions and feasibility report for understanding the technology , market trends and details of the business. Moreover, oxygen demand will only increase as its use in medicine and industries is going year after year.
It is quite simple to start a small oxygen plant. Firstly, you must find a reputed oxygen plant manufacturer acclaimed for making & supplying O2 gas plants. Then, you must the size of your small business and accordingly purchase an O2 plant for meeting your oxygen requirements. However, we would suggest that you should opt for an oxygen plant with capacity of 50m3/hr, which is considered the optimum capacity for small businesses. We recommend that you must get a feasibility report for an approximate number of customers you want to supply oxygen to.
There are many methods of air separation such as pressure swing adsorption (PSA), membrane separation and cryogenic distillation. As cryogenic air separation is the most efficient, we will discuss the advantages of separating constituents through it. This is the only method of air separation that can generate oxygen with purity up to 99.7% and 99.99%. Most of the industries needing uninterrupted supply of O2 or N2 prefer opting for cryogenic distillation. Moreover, the plant machinery manufactured with the technology has a life-span of over 25 years.
Air compressor is an industrial device for converting power into potential energy through burning gasoline or electric motor. Compressing involves pushing more and more air into an enclosure by increasing the pressure. When the upper limit of the enclosure is reached the compressor is switched off. The compressed air remains stored in the tank or enclosure until you decide to use it. There are three types of compressors including low pressure air compressors (LPACs), medium pressure compressors and high pressure air compressors.
There are many types of oxygen cylinders used in industrial and medical applications. On the basis of size, we categorize them as: 9”, 11”, 12”, 15”, and 25”. On the basis of capacity, they are made in the following types: 1 litre to 1200 litres. In terms of pressure, the cylinders types are based on pressures between 200 to 400bars. As per materials used, their types are based on: Stainless steel, aluminum, fiber-reinforced metal (composite material).
