Abstract

Se presentan un procedimiento y un dispositivo que sirven para la obtencion de argon con un sistema de tres columna para la descomposicion del aire que presenta una columna de alta presion (11), una columna de baja presion (13), y una columna de presion media (12). Una primera corriente de aire de aplicacion (10, 64) se introduce en la columna de alta presion (11) y alli, se separa en un primer liquido rico de oxigeno y un primer gas de cabezal de nitrogeno. Una primera fraccion rica en oxigeno (23, 24, 26) se conduce desde' la columna de alta presion (11) a la columna de presion media (12) y alli se separa en un segundo liquido rico en oxigeno y un segundo gas de cabezal de nitrogeno. Una segunda fraccion rica en oxigeno (33, 35) desde la columna de alta presion y/o desde la columna de presion media (12) se conduce a la columna de presion baja (13) y alli se separa en un tercer liquido rico de oxigeno y un tercer gas de cabezal de nitrogeno. Una fraccion que contiene argon (68) se introduce desde la columna de baja presion (13) en una columna de argon en bruto (70) y alli se separa en una fraccion de cabezal de argon en bruto y un liquido rico de oxigeno. Por lo menos una parte (73) de la fraccion de cabezal de argon en bruto (71) se conduce a un condensador de argon en bruto (29) y alli por un intercambio de calor indirecto con cuando menos una parte (27) del segundo liquido enriquecido de oxigeno que proviene de la columna de presion media (12) se condensa cuando menos parcialmente. El vapor enriquecido en oxigeno (32) que se forma se retorna a la columna de presion media (12). Una fraccion (72) desde la zona superior de la columna de argon en bruto (70) y/o una parte de la fraccion de cabezal de argon en bruto, corriente abajo del condensador de argon en bruto se obtiene como producto de argon en bruto.
