The origin of oxygen air compressors can be traced back to the development of industrial oxygen-making and gas separation technology in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.At that time,in order to meet the industrial demand for oxygen,nitrogen and other gases,people began to research and develop air separation technology,and oxygen-making air compressors were an important part of this rechnology.

Early background

1.The brith of air separation technology:

In 1895,German scientist Carl von Linde invented air liquefaction technologymwhich laid the foundation for oxygen production technology.

During the same period,Frech scientist Georges Claude improved the process of liquefied air and promoted industrial-scale oxygen production.

2.Development of air compressor:

At the end of the 19th century,steam-driven piston air compressors began to become popular,providing the necessary high-pressure air for induatrial oxygen production.

With the development of internal combustion engines and electric motors,air compressors have gradually developed in the direction of high efficiency and multi-purpose.

The evolution of oxygen air compressors

The core function of the oxygen-making air compressor is to compress the air to high pressure to facilitate the subsequent air separation process.In the technogical evolution:

1.Piston air compressor:

The original oxygen-making air compressors are mostly piston-type,which can prvide high pressure but loud noise and low efficiency.

2.Centrifugal air compressor:

At the beginning of the 20th century,with the development of centrifugal technology,centrifugal air compressors were gradually applied to the field of oxygen production,with the characteristics of continuous operation and high efficiency.

3.Screw air compressor:

In the middle of the 20th century,Screw air compressors appeared.Besause of their stable operation and simple maintence,they gradually became an important equipment for oxygen production devices.

The modernization of oxygen-making air compressors

With the progress of industrial technology,modern oxygen-making air compressors emphasize high efficiency,energy saving and environmental protection.For example:

1.The introduction of frequency conversion technology has improved energy efficiency and stability.

2.Special materials and designs improve the durability of the air compressor and adapt to complex working conditions.

3.The automated control system makes the operation more convenient.
