Problems solved by technology

CN101219919A adopts palladium catalytic hydrodeoxygenation method in the landfill gas purification, increases the consumption of hydrogen in the process, increases the operating cost, and the methane concentration of the obtained product gas is 90%-95%
The current pressure swing adsorption (PSA) system is still unable to meet the requirements of higher purity products of more than 99%, and the product gas contains a small amount of nitrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide
CH at home and abroad 4 CH for the product 4 / N 2 Systematic PSA research has also been very weak

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing methane by deeply purifying landfill gas, which adopts pressure varying adsorption method to remove nitrogen and oxygen contained in the landfill gas. The method utilizes the pressure varying adsorption method to separate a small quantity of N2 and O2 from the landfill gas; and the process is simple, the equipment is compact, the operation cost is low and the applicability is high. Simultaneously, the method does not use catalyst hydrogenation for removing oxygen so as to prevent hydrogen from entering purified methane. The methane obtained by the method has high purity which is greater than or equal to 99 percent; and organic impurities can be fundamentally removed and then the purity of methane can meet the application requirement of higher purity methane.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mixed gas separation, purification and renewable energy recovery and utilization, in particular to a method for purifying and preparing methane from landfill gas. Background technique [0002] Landfill gas (LFG) is one of the degradation products of sanitary landfills. The composition of landfill gas is complex, except for the main component CH 4 , CO 2 In addition, there are more than 140 other substances that have been detected, including N 2 , O 2 , H 2 S, H 2 O, high boiling point impurities, sulfides, chlorides, etc., and some other trace volatile organic impurities (VOCs) with very low content (total volume concentration less than 1%), such as chlorinated hydrocarbons, benzene series, halogenated hydrocarbons Wait. According to the United Nations, 148 million tons of waste are filled into landfills across China every year, and each ton of waste can generate approximately 100-200m during the life of the landfill. 3...
