Gas dehydration and dealkylation method for supersonic vortex tube

Abstract

The invention relates to a gas dehydration and dealkylation method for a supersonic vortex tube, wherein the feed gas enters a separator and a filter separator to separate large particles out, the filtering separated feed gas and a dry gas are cooled in a first level gas-to-gas heat exchanger, and enter a first level prewhirling pre-nucleation supersonic vortex tube to be dehydrated after fine and small solid particles are separated out through a fine filter, and are separated into a first level dry gas and a gas-liquid mixture; the gas-liquid mixture enters a first level gas-liquid separatorto be separated; the separated gas phase flows into the first level dry gas to enter a second level gas-to-gas heat exchanger; the cooled first level dry gas enters a second level prewhirling pre-nucleation supersonic vortex tube to be dehydrated, and is separated into a second level dry gas and the gas-liquid mixture; the gas-liquid mixture enters a second level gas-liquid separator to be separated; the separated gas phase is interflowed with the second level dry gas to enter the second level gas-to-gas heat exchanger and the first level gas-to-gas heat exchanger for exchanging heat with thefirst level dry gas and the feed gas for temperature rise, and the heated dry gas is exported; and the high water dew point and blockage problems of hydrocarbon are solved, the dehydration and the dealkylation of the feed gas are realized, and a purification device is ensured to stably operate.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0032] It can be seen from the above process flow that in order to avoid the formation of hydrates, the temperature of the natural gas before entering the supersonic vortex tube 6 cannot be lower than the hydrate formation temperature, so the gas-gas heat exchanger 4 cannot fully exchange heat and make full
