Fractional Distillation
- Nitrogen makes up 78% of the air, while oxygen makes up 21%. Fractional distillation of liquid air can extract those two gases.
- To eliminate dust, the air is filtered and then warmed in phases till it approaches –200°C.
- This is fluid during these temperatures. The atmosphere has become liquid.
- When water vapor accumulates, absorbing filters are used to remove it.
- At -79°C, carbon dioxide freezes and is eliminated.
- At -183°C, oxygen liquefies.
- At -196°C, nitrogen melts.
- Fractional process of separating the liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen.
