Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering ethylene and hydrogen from refinery dry gases through cold oil absorption, pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and membrane separation. The method has the advantages and beneficial effects that main components such as hydrogen, ethylene and the like are obtained from the refinery dry gases through the steps of compression and pressure increase, cold oil absorption, PSA, membrane separation, desorption, normal coarse distillation and the like; the main components are clearly separated; meanwhile, under the actions of PSA and membrane separation, the purity of various components can be more than 99%, the yield of hydrogen can reach 90-95%, the purity of ethylene is 99%, and the yield of ethylene can reach 92-98%; the whole recovery flow is reasonable; the method has the characteristics of high yield, high purity, low operating cost and lower energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of classified recovery of refinery dry gas, in particular to methods for refining dry gas cold oil absorption, pressure swing adsorption, membrane separation and recovery of ethylene and hydrogen. Background technique [0002] The useful components in refinery dry gas are mainly hydrogen, light olefins and light alkanes. These components are very valuable in refinery dry gas, but at present, a large amount of them have not yet been optimally utilized, but are directly used as fuel, and some are even directly ignited to vent. Refinery dry gas contains not only hydrogen, but also a large amount of light olefins and light alkanes. These components can be separated and used separately, which is more beneficial than using them directly as fuel or raw materials for reforming hydrogen production and synthesizing methanol. [0003] The technologies for recovering hydrogen, light olefins and light alkanes from refinery dry g...
