Problems solved by technology

Although CO 2 / N 2 The recovery efficiency of mixed gas is higher than that of gaseous CO 2 Replacement, liquid CO 2 Replacement, CO 2 Emulsion replacement has been greatly improved, but due to the injection of N in the gas 2 The content is high, resulting in CH in the produced gas 4 content is not high, and N 2 / CH 4 Difficult to separate, increasing the overall cost, leading to the acquisition of CH 4 Industrial application value is not high
[0005] The technical problems in the current exploitation and the cost of exploitation have become the bottleneck restricting the exploitation of natural gas hydrate in various countries

Abstract

The invention provides a method for extracting a natural gas hydrate by using a gas mixture of CO2 and H2. The method comprises the steps of: extracting, through a depressurized way, free gases in a natural gas hydrate mineral deposit until a pressure of the natural gas hydrate mineral deposit reduces to a balance pressure or to be 5%-10% greater than the balance pressure corresponding to a temperature of the hydrate mineral deposit; injecting a gas mixture A of CO2 and H2 into a natural gas hydrate settled layer to decompose the natural gas hydrate, replacing the gas mixture A so as to obtain CH4 and water; extracting, through the depressurized way, a gas mixture B formed by the CH4 released by replacement and residual gas mixture A; reforming the gas mixture B through water steam so as to obtain a gas mixture C of CO2 and H2; separating the gas mixture C to obtain hydrogen, and a gas mixture D of the CO2 and H4; circularly injecting the gas mixture D into the natural gas hydrate settled layer, continuing excavating the natural gas hydrate. The method for excavating the natural gas hydrate by means of depressurization and replacement disclosed by the invention can not only improve an excavation efficiency of natural gas, but also overcome shortages of a low molar fraction and hard separation of methane in extracted product, so that an extraction cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method using CO 2 and H 2 The invention discloses a method for exploiting natural gas hydrate with a mixed gas, belonging to the technical field of marine natural gas hydrate exploitation. Background technique [0002] Natural gas hydrate is a special form of natural gas. It has wide distribution, large scale and high energy density. It has attracted worldwide attention and is known as "future energy". The data shows that the amount of natural gas hydrate resources discovered in the ocean and tundra in the past two decades is particularly huge, and the organic carbon reserves are equivalent to twice that of the world's proven fossil fuels. In addition, hydrate has a high energy storage density, and produces very little residue and waste after combustion, making it an excellent green energy source. [0003] Most hydrate production methods are based on destroying the phase equilibrium conditions of hydrate, such as c...
