Abstract

The invention provides a novel process for preparing methane from high energy-efficiency synthetic gas. The technology is characterized in that the process controls the reaction temperature of synthetic methane in a first section high temperature reactor through various means and allows the temperature to be high as possible in the range allowed by thermodynamics; therefore, the process recycles heat energy discharged by the reaction at high efficiency, can control the CO content of an outlet reactor of the high-temperature reactor so that the reaction temperature of the first section high temperature reactor and the reaction temperature of a second section intermediate temperate reactor meet the requirement of thermodynamics; and the process utilizes the heat exchange between low-temperature reaction gas and a catalyst bed layer to control the reaction temperature and ensures the material conversion ratio as high as possible.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of methane production from syngas, and particularly relates to a new process for efficiently recovering and utilizing the heat produced in the methane production process. Background technique [0002] Methanation technology was first applied in the synthetic ammonia process to remove CO and CO in the feed gas 2 In the 1940s, foreign countries paid great attention to the research on the production of qualified natural gas and city gas by methanation. In the early 1970s, domestic and foreign researches on substituting coal and naphtha for natural gas were conducted, and a series of technological processes were developed. How to efficiently recover and utilize a large amount of heat energy released by the strong exothermic reaction has become a hot spot for research and development. [0003] Denmark The patent US4130575 applied by the company uses multiple reactors connected in series. These reactors are all high-temperature...
