Zusammenfassung:A plate fin heat exchanger assembly (S) for a cryogenic air separation unit, comprising: a heat exchanger having at least two cryogenic liquid inlets (B,C) at least two cryogenic liquid outlets (B,C), at least one nitrogen-rich stream inlet (D) at a first end of the heat exchanger and at least one nitrogen-rich stream outlet at a second end of the heat exchanger, the heat exchanger configured to receive a flow of at least one nitrogen-rich stream (WN,LPGAN) of the air separation unit at the at least one nitrogen-rich stream inlet and separate flows of at least two cryogenic liquids (LOX,LIN,LR) at the at least two cryogenic liquid inlets; wherein the inlet of the first of the cryogenic liquids is closer to the first end than the outlet of the second of the cryogenic liquids.
