We are world class manufacturer and exporter of acetylene gas plant for oxy acetylene gas welding and cutting applications.
Automatic standard acetylene generation plant is used for producing acetylene which is a highly flammable fuel gas. Acetylene is produced because of a reaction between calcium carbide and water. As a by-product of the heat from the reaction, the plant is equipped with mechanism for moderating heat with water to ensure there is no explosion. Acetylene is a fuel gas which is widely used in applications such as cutting, heating and brazing. It can generate high temperature in combination with oxygen gas mixture. We equip the acetylene generating units with proper safety measures.
The process for producing acetylene gas involves a chemical reaction between calcium carbide and water. Raw materials used in the reaction are water and calcium carbide, which is popular for commercial production of acetylene. CaC2 (chemical formula for calcium carbide) is made by a mixture of line and coke in a blast furnace. The reaction between water and Cac2 is formulated as CaC2 + 2H2O -> C2H2 + Ca(OH)2 The reaction generates C2H2 (acetylene), calcium hydroxide and heat. Very less moisture content is generated during the reaction.
The process for generation of acetylene gas is described in detail below. We use the standard size of calcium carbide during the testing of acetylene gas plants. However, you can use the CaC2 of varying sizes which will have impact on the performance.
Acetylene is one of the most popular fuel gases, which is used in wide range industrial applications. It is used in combination with oxygen for generating high flame temperatures. Some of the industrial applications are given below:
