5 Key Considerations in Air Separation Unit Construction Projects

5 Key Considerations in Air Separation Unit Construction Projects

Planning an ASU upgrade, turnaround or new facility requires extensive capital investment.  The difference between on-time completion and costly delays comes down to five critical factors.

When embarking on an air separation construction project, it’s essential to address these core considerations:

  1. Site Selection & Permitting – Proper evaluation of local infrastructure, utilities, and environmental regulations.
  2. Engineering Precision – Integrating process flow, safety, and scalability into the design phase.
  3. Specialized Construction Expertise – Partnering with teams experienced in cryogenic and high-pressure systems.
  4. Safety Compliance – Meeting or exceeding OSHA, ASME, and ISO standards throughout construction.
  5. Commissioning & Operational Readiness – Ensuring all systems meet performance targets before production begins.
