Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of energy and chemical industry, and discloses a process for synthesizing LNG and co-producing liquid ammonia by utilizing methanol purge gas. Under the action of a methane synthesis catalyst, the methanol purge gas produced from methanol synthesis is directly preheated to 250°C~350°C and enters the The methane synthesis unit performs a methane synthesis reaction. The obtained methane gas enters the cryogenic separation and liquefaction process after being cooled and dehydrated. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is obtained in the bottom of the rectification tower. The yield of LNG is 95%~100%. Hydrogen gas and hydrogen-rich gas enter the pressure swing adsorption separation process after recovery of cooling capacity. The hydrogen-rich gas is separated from hydrogen, nitrogen and methane in the pressure swing adsorption separation device to obtain hydrogen, nitrogen and methane respectively, and then the nitrogen is pressurized and mixed with hydrogen to enter the ammonia synthesis process according to the hydrogen-nitrogen ratio of 2.9~3.1 , hydrogen and nitrogen that meet the conditions are mixed and then pressurized to 12.0MPa~30.0MPa to enter the ammonia synthesis tower to produce liquid ammonia.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an application technology of methanol purge gas, and provides a process for synthesizing LNG and co-producing liquid ammonia by using methanol purge gas. Background technique [0002] Natural gas is an efficient and clean energy, but due to the lack of natural gas resources in my country, its supply is far from meeting market demand. Coal-to-synthetic natural gas is an important way to alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand of natural gas, and it is a new coal chemical project supported by the country during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period. [0003] On the other hand, my country's methanol production uses coal as the main raw material. During the methanol synthesis process of coal-to-methanol enterprises, a large amount of H 2 , CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and N 2 As the main component of Chi gas. According to each ton of methanol, 601.5Nm3 / h of purge gas can be produced. The typical composition of purge gas is show...
