Abstract

A cascade type liquefaction process for precooling coalbed methane (CBM) by residual pressure of pressure swing adsorption (PSA) belongs to the technical field of chemical industry and low temperature. The invention provides an integrated process of adsorption and liquefaction of CBM with high nitrogen content. The process comprises the following steps: before liquefaction, firstly desorbing most nitrogen in the CBM by the PSA process, adopting the residual pressure of adsorption in the above nitrogen to precool the CBM after expanding the residual pressure and liquefying the CBM by the cascade type liquefaction process formed by propane, ethane and methane three-stage refrigeration cycle. The precooling process of the nitrogen with residual pressure saves the propane flow used in first-stage cooling, thus reducing the overall power consumption of the system. With the increase of the nitrogen content of the CBM and the residual pressure of adsorption in the nitrogen, the temperature of the precooled CBM can be lower than that of the precooled original propane, therefore, the precooled CBM can be directly led into heat exchangers to which the ethane provides cooling capacity, and the ethane consumption can be saved, thus further reducing the power consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a coalbed gas liquefaction process, in particular to a coalbed gas cascaded liquefaction process which utilizes pressure swing adsorption residual pressure precooling and relates to high nitrogen content coalbed gas. It belongs to the field of chemical industry and low temperature technology. Background technique [0002] Coal bed methane is a kind of coal mine associated gas with methane as the main component, commonly known as "coal mine gas", which belongs to unconventional natural gas. The development and utilization of coalbed methane can not only provide a clean energy with high calorific value, but also prevent mine disasters caused by gas explosions and reduce the emission of methane, a greenhouse gas, which is of great significance to coal mine safety and environmental protection. my country's coalbed methane reserves are abundant, and they are mainly distributed in the economically developed or relatively developed c...
