Industrial Oxygen: Its Use and Generation
www.aceee.orgCryogenic Separation Cryogenic air separation units (ASU) is an old process used to produce high purity oxygen or nitrogen at high volumes. The process was first developed by Carl Von Linde in 1895 and it remains pretty much the same today. Cryogenics is also the chief method by which liquid oxygen can be produced.

industry.airliquide.usOct 08, 2015 · cryogenic liquid, as a slight increase in temperature can cause tremendous and danger-ous buildup of pressure and cause the line to burst. The system should also be designed with a safety relief valve and, depending upon the gas, a vent line. Always wear gauntlet gloves to cover hands and arms, and a cryogenic apron to protect the front of the ...
