Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of oil refining, in particular to a method for desulfurizing light hydrocarbons. Background technique
[0002] Light hydrocarbons such as crude liquefied gas (mainly C4 hydrocarbons) and light gasoline (mainly C5 hydrocarbons) produced by refineries contain a large amount of acidic sulfur-containing substances (mainly hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans). method to remove acidic sulfur-containing substances.
[0003] Sweetening of mercaptans is an important step in the refining process of liquefied gas. The commonly used alkaline cleaning method for liquefied gas desulfurization in industry is to contact liquefied gas with lye containing excess NaOH, so that mercaptan and NaOH react to form sodium mercaptide, which is dissolved in lye to remove liquefied gas thiols in.
[0004] The lye containing sodium mercaptide needs to be regenerated to remove the contained sodium mercaptide. The method of lye regeneration is gene...
