6. 1 General The Mobile TireSaver separates compressed air into nitrogen and an oxygen enriched air stream The separation system is based on membrane technology The compressed air is derived from a shared or dedicated compressor source The nitrogen produced is usually dispensed directly from the Mobile TireSaver unit to the tire or may be stored in a nitrogen storage vessel 3 2 Separation principle Separation layer Support layer Pressurized air Nitrogen Fig 3 1 Separation principle A Pressurized air inlet Fast B Hollow fiber membrane S Slow C Nitrogen outlet Ambient air contains nitrogen 78 196 oxygen 20 995 argon 196 carbon dioxide water vapor and traces of other inert gasses Pressurized air A is fed through the hollow fiber membrane B The various air components diffuse through the wall of the membrane The diffusion rate differs for the various gasses Oxygen and water vapor have a high diffusion rate and permeate rapidly through the membrane wall e Nitrogen has a low diffusion rate and permeates slowly through the membrane wall At the exit of the membrane C pressurized nitrogen is released 26 10 2006 Bulletin TI MTSO6B 8 3 3 Process parameters The nitrogen production depends on these parameters Flow rate The lower the flow rate of compressed air through the hollow fiber membrane the more oxygen can permeate through the membrane wall As a result the nitrogen produced at the outle
