Answer:

Cryogenic distillation

Step-by-step explanation:

Cryogenic Distillation is the process in which Nitrogen and Oxygen are separated from air. Thus in cryogenic distillations the components having very low boiling points are distilled selectively at low temperatures. This method produces products of high purity but also it is quite energy intensive.
