A system for preparing feed air for processing in a cryogenic air separation plant wherein nitrogen vapor from the plant is interacted with water to cool the water by heat exchange and also by evaporative cooling to produce chilled water, and the chilled water is contacted with the feed air to cool the feed air and to scrub particulate matter out from the feed air.

Feed air precooling and scrubbing system for cryogenic air separation plant

A cryogenic air separation system for producing oxygen wherein essentially all of the power produced by a gas turbine system is used to compress feed air for the cryogenic air separation, and wherein preferably a facilitating column is employed to enhance the production of oxygen from the double column system.
