Influence of molecular sieve in PSA nitrogen generator

Carbon molecular sieve PSA nitrogen generator production relies on van der Waals force to separate oxygen and nitrogen. Therefore, the larger the specific surface area of the molecular sieve, the more uniform the pore size distribution, and the greater the number of micropores or submicropores, the greater the adsorption capacity; , If the pore size can be as small as possible, the van der Waals force field overlaps, and it has a better separation effect on low-concentration substances.
Carbon molecular sieve is a non-quantitative compound, and its important properties are based on its microporous structure. Its ability to separate air depends on the different diffusion speeds of various gases in the air in the pores of the carbon molecular sieve, or different adsorption forces, or both effects work at the same time. Under equilibrium conditions, the adsorption capacity of carbon molecular sieve for oxygen and nitrogen is quite close, but the diffusion rate of oxygen molecules through the narrow gaps of the carbon molecular sieve microporous system is much faster than that of nitrogen molecules. Carbon molecular sieve air separation nitrogen production is based on this Performance, before the time to reach equilibrium conditions, the nitrogen is separated from the air through the PSA process.
