Abstract

The invention discloses a methanation process of synthetic natural gas (SNG) prepared from coal. Purified and decarbonized synthetic gas prepared from coal is divided into three parts, wherein the first part of synthetic gas enters into a first methanation reactor after being mixed with recycle air, gas at the outlet of the first methanation reactor enters into a second methanation reactor after being mixed with the second part of synthetic gas, the gas at the outlet of the second methanation reactor enters in to a third methanation reactor after being mixed with the third part of synthetic gas, after the gas is cooled in the third methanation reactor, part of the gas enters into a cyclic compressor to be boosted to be used as the recycle gas, other gases sequentially enter into a fourth methanation reactor, a fifth methanation reactor and a sixth methanation reactor to be subjected to methanation reaction, the dry basis content of methane in the gas at the outlet of the final methanation reactor is larger than 95%, and then the SNG meeting the requirement is obtained through cooling, compressing and dehydrating. The invention has the advantages of small recycle gas quantity, high energy utilization ratio and small investment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to rich H 2 , CO and CO 2 The gas methanation process method particularly relates to a coal-to-synthetic natural gas methanation process. Background technique [0002] China's estimated coal reserves are about 5.47 trillion tons, and most of them are in Shanxi Province, Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang, especially Xinjiang is located in the northwest, with poor transportation conditions. At the same time, my country's conventional natural gas resources are about 35-38 trillion Nm 3 , accounting for 2% of the world's total; of which the recoverable resources are 10-12 trillion Nm 3 , the remaining recoverable reserves of natural gas per capita are only equivalent to 6% of the world's average level, and my country is relatively rich in coal and less in gas. As a high-quality clean energy, natural gas currently accounts for only 3.9% of my country's primary energy consumption, far below the world average of 23.7%. Over the ye...
