Acetylene Plant
Acetylene (C2H2), a compound of carbon and hydrogen, is a colorless, highly
flammable gas. It is slightly lighter than air and has a garlic-like odor. Acetylene
is stored in high pressure cylinders filled with a porous material and containing
acetone, into which the acetylene is dissolved. Unless dissolved in a solvent,
acetylene will dissociate at pressures above 15 psig and form lamp black and
hydrogen. Heat is generated with dissociation, which in turn, produces a danger
of explosion.
Acetylene is manufactured by the reaction of water with calcium carbide. It
is also manufactured by thermal cracking of hydrocarbons, or by partial combustion
of methane and oxygen.
Acetylene has become increasingly prominent as a raw material for a whole series
of organic compounds, among them acetaldehyde, acetic gas, and acetic anhydride.
The remaining 20% of the acetylene production is principally used for oxy-acetylene
cutting, heat treating, and welding.
Our Universal acetylene plant is highly versatile and designed and manufactured by
experienced and qualified Engineers. All the parts are made with the best materials
as per drawings with complete inspection and quality control.
The Acelytene plant is highly safe and dependable and is FULLY AUTOMATIC and
are available in models Universal 45 & Universal 100 in sizes of 45 & 100 m³/hr.
All the operations are automatic and performed by imported pneumatically controlled
valves assisted by highly sensitive senssors alongwith the temperature controlled
instruments. The entire plant is designed with utmost safety in mind alongwith
flash back arrestors, High pressure reverse flow check valves and complete help
to protect both the equipements and the operators.
Salient Features Of Acetylene Gas Filling
Plant
1) Capacity ranging from 25cum/hour to 100cum/hr of latest technology.
2) No bulky gas holder required.
3) Automatic controls for feeding water.
4) Maintaining temperatures, pressures, and slurry drain are full proof,
efficient and are of international standard.
5) Excellent absorption of gas in cylinders.
6) No gas loss and high yield.
7) Very simple and safe to operate.
8) Low power consumption.
9) Low maintenance cost.
The entire operation is perfectly synchronised to give maximum efficiency and
simplicity in operation. Any failure, whether it is of power supply, water,
instruments air, is signalled visually and also audibly when an alarm bell rings
to alert the operator.
Only flame proof lights and electrical fittings according to IS2148-68 (Group
II) or BSS-229 may be used in an acetylene plant building. Acetylene cylinders
must be of specification IS: 7312: 1974 or ICC:8.
The design of the entire plant has been made with safety in mind. Flash Back
Arrestors, High Pressure Reverse Flow check valves, safety valves and complete
gauging help protect both equipment and personnel. Various auto controls, safety
valves, auto vent valves, non-return valves and Flash Back Arrestors are also
provided to make this plant absolutely safe to operate in all conditions.
