Problems solved by technology

Due to the high concentration of hydrogen in the permeate gas, the scale of the PSA device in this case is more reasonable; but in order to ensure that the pressure on the permeate side can meet the requirements of PSA to prepare higher pressure hydrogen products, the pressure drop on both sides of the membrane separation must be controlled at a low level Level, under the premise of ensuring the ideal hydrogen recovery rate, the number of required membranes increases, and the investment in membrane separation systems increases

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited.

[0027] In order to make the technical means, creative features and effects of the present invention easy to understand, the content of the present invention will be further explained through application examples and the accompanying drawings.

[0028] The following example takes a coal-to-olefin synthesis engineering plastics project as an example. The scale of the methanol plant is about 1.5 million tons / year of methanol, and methanol synthesis purge gas (6.52MPaG, H 2 ~68.2%) The amount is about 24700Nm 3 / h, the amount of hydrogen required downstream is 3100Nm 3 / h (pressure 4.0MPaG, H2~99.9%).

[0029] The process flow is described as follows:

[0030] The methanol synthesis purge gas first enters the first stage of membrane separation to produce 3690Nm 3 / h (4.4MPaG, H 2 ~91.3%) permeate gas, sent to PSA device, the remaining non-permea...

Abstract

The invention provides a treating process for recycling methanol synthesis purge gas and using part of the same to prepare hydrogen products. The treating process includes that the methanol synthesis purge gas is firstly subjected to first-section-membrane separation treating, permeable gas, sufficient in hydrogen quantity, prepared in a lot of purge gas enters PSA (pressure swing adsorption), and first-section-membrane separation permeation gas is further purified to obtain high-purity hydrogen; most of the remaining purge gas serving as non-permeable gas continues to enter second-section-membrane separation, the permeable gas serving as hydrogen rich gas returns to a synthesis unit for recycling; second-section-membrane separation non-permeable gas and desorbed gas of the PSA both serving as fuel gas are sent out of a boundary region. The PSA and two-section-membrane separation are creatively and organically combined, and recycling of the methanol synthesis purge gas is realized while a certain amount of high-purity hydrogen is prepared in a more reasonable and economical manner. The treating process is especially suitable for occasions of recycling the methanol synthesis purge gas of a large-scale coal chemical plant and preparing a small amount of high-purity hydrogen at the same time.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coal chemical industry, and particularly relates to a process for recovering methanol synthesis purge gas and partially preparing hydrogen products. Background technique [0002] In the methanol synthesis unit of the coal chemical project, in order to prevent the accumulation of inert gas, a small part of the circulating gas is usually released after the reactor. This part of the gas, due to the high hydrogen content, will cause a serious waste of useful gas if it is burned directly. For this reason, the current conventional method of methanol synthesis equipment is to use low-investment membrane separation technology to use the difference in the permeability of gas molecules in the membrane to filter out the macromolecular components in the purge gas, and to enrich the hydrogen in the purge gas. Return to the methanol synthesis unit for recycling, and the remaining non-permeate gas is sent out of the boundar...
