Yango™: Standard Air Separation Unit
A standardized, mid-scale cryogenic air separation unit delivering cost-effective, fast-track, and highly reliable mass gas production.
Energy-intensive heavy industries demand massive, reliable gas supplies without compromising on project timelines. As your global technology partner, Air Liquide E&T designed the Yango™ standard air separation unit. It combines the mid-scale production capacity of a custom-built plant with the reduced construction costs and accelerated delivery of a standardized design.
Unmatched scale and speed
The YangoTM standardized air separation unit (ASU) is designed for customers with quick-launch projects, where time to production is a priority:
- Fast-track delivery: By utilizing pre-engineered modules and standardized components, Yango™ significantly reduces engineering time and time-to-production compared to fully customized Mega ASUs.
- Optimized economics: This standardization directly translates to reduced Capital Expenditures (CAPEX) while maintaining highly competitive Operational Expenditures (OPEX).
- High reliability: Based on decades of Air Liquide’s operational experience, the standardized design eliminates technical risks and ensures a deeply proven, robust plant architecture.
Maximum yield and flexibility
Like all Air Liquide cryogenic separation technologies, Yango™ compresses, purifies, and cools atmospheric air to extreme temperatures, separating molecules through distillation.
While optimized for massive gaseous oxygen production, the Yango™ process is highly flexible. It is capable of simultaneously producing gaseous nitrogen, as well as liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen, and liquid argon, ensuring all your industrial utility needs are met from a single, highly efficient facility.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a Yango™ standard air separation unit?
Yango™ is Air Liquide’s mid-scale, standardized Air Separation Unit (ASU). It utilizes pre-engineered cryogenic technology to deliver massive quantities of oxygen and nitrogen with a faster deployment time than custom-built plants.
What industries benefit from the Yango™ ASU?
The Yango™ unit is perfectly suited for heavy, energy-intensive sectors that require massive gas volumes, such as steelmaking, coal gasification, petrochemicals, and refining.
Does Yango™ produce liquid gases?
Yes. In addition to high-pressure gaseous oxygen and nitrogen, the Yango™ unit can be configured to co-produce liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen, and liquid argon to fill on-site backup storage or supply local markets.
