Abstract
An air separation system includes a high temperature ozone converter, a mechanical separator, and an air separator downstream of the high temperature ozone converter and the mechanical separator. The air separator receives high temperature air and provides high temperature nitrogen-enriched air and high temperature oxygen-enriched air. The air separation system further includes a heat exchanger downstream of air separator that receives and cools the high temperature nitrogen-enriched air.
