VPSA Oxygen Generation

Pressure Swing Adsorption Oxygen Production


Lirun Technology's VPSA-O₂ technology is one of the industrial oxygen enrichment solutions, applied in industries such as steel, non-ferrous metallurgy, glass, and fiberglass. The system is based on the principle of selective adsorption: feed air (0.03–0.05 MPa) is delivered by a blower into the adsorption tower, where specialized adsorbents preferentially adsorb nitrogen and other impurities, while high-purity oxygen (90–93%) is continuously produced at the top. A PLC-based intelligent control system enables dual-tower alternating operation. Once saturated, the system automatically switches to vacuum desorption (-0.08 to -0.092 MPa), ensuring stable oxygen supply.


Lirun Technology integrates advanced radial-bed design, stable dedicated adsorbents, high-frequency large-diameter butterfly valves, mature power equipment, and a systematic engineering management system to achieve low energy consumption and large-scale production of oxygen plants, providing customers with oxygen plants designed for low energy consumption, easy operation, and stable performance.
