In a method for regulating a series of apparatus for separating air by cryogenic distillation, the series comprising N air separation apparatus (1, 2, 3, 4), where N>1, an air gas having substantially the same composition is sent from the N apparatus to a consuming unit (5), each apparatus comprising a system of distillation columns (1 B, 2B, 3B, 4B) and an air purification unit (1A, 2A, 3A, 4A) of the type in which at least two adsorbers are used, each, with a phase shift, following the same cycle in which an adsorption phase, at a high cycle pressure, and a regeneration phase with depressurization, succeed one another, terminating in a repressurization of the adsorber, the method comprising a step in which the adsorbers of a unit are placed in parallel, each apparatus having an adsorption cycle time and the operation of at least some of the purification units is regulated so that the repressurization step for one apparatus begins at a different time from the beginning of the repressurization for another apparatus. |
