Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing substitute natural gas. The problems of large using amount of high-temperature methanation reaction circulating gas, high energy consumption of a compressor and excess of an H2 or CO2 component in a substitute natural gas product in the prior art are mainly solved. According to the technical scheme, the method comprises the following steps: (a) proving a high-temperature methanation reaction area, wherein the high-temperature methanation reaction area comprises an n stages of cascaded reactors; (b) dividing synthesis gas raw materials into n sections, causing the n sections of synthesis gas raw materials to enter an inlet of a reactor in each stage in the high-temperature methanation reaction area, dividing a material flow Vn flowing out of an outlet of the reactor in a final stage into Vn' and Vn', and compressing and circulating the material flow Vn to an inlet of the reactor in the first stage; (c) providing a low-temperature methanation reaction area, wherein the low-temperature methanation reaction area comprises m stages of reactors which are connected in series; (d) supplementing an H2-containing material flow I into the reactor in any stage of a low-temperature methanation unit, and performing reaction to obtain the substitute natural gas product. According to the method, the problems are well solved; the method can be used for industrial production of preparing the substitute natural gas with synthesis gas.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of producing alternative natural gas. Background technique [0002] Natural gas is an efficient and clean energy that can make up for the increasingly scarce oil resources to a certain extent. However, in recent years, my country's natural gas demand has grown rapidly, and my country's natural gas reserves are relatively small. It is predicted that the demand for natural gas in China will reach 170-210 billion Nm in 2015 3 , while the natural gas production in the same period can only reach 140 billion Nm 3 , the gap between supply and demand is about 30 billion to 70 billion Nm 3 . In order to solve the contradiction between the supply and demand of natural gas in my country, other alternative ways must be sought. [0003] my country is rich in coal resources, so the methanation of synthetic gas from coal gasification to substitute natural gas (SNG) can effectively alleviate my country's demand for natura...
