In a method for separating air by separation at sub-ambient temperature, a first heat pump, using the magnetocaloric effect, exchanges heat between a cold source at sub-ambient temperature and a hot source at sub-ambient temperature, thus providing at least some of the separation energy, and a second heat pump, using the magnetocaloric effect, exchanges heat between a cold source at sub-ambient temperature and a hot source at ambient temperature thus providing at least some of the cold needed to maintain the refrigeration balance of the method, the separation taking place in a single column at a pressure of below 2 bara. |
