Abstract

The invention provides a low-pressure ammonia synthesis process, comprising the following steps: 1) performing cryogenic air separation on the air to obtain nitrogen and oxygen, and performing pure oxygen autothermal conversion between oxygen and natural gas to obtain CO and H 2 2) The mixed gas is subjected to electrolysis and water separation to obtain hydrogen; 3) The hydrogen and nitrogen are mixed to form a raw material gas for ammonia synthesis, and the first-level ammonia synthesis is carried out in the first ammonia synthesis tower filled with an iron-based catalyst. The synthesis pressure is 5-7MPa; 4) the mixed gas coming out from the first ammonia synthesis tower enters the second ammonia synthesis tower filled with ruthenium-based catalyst for secondary ammonia synthesis, and the synthesis pressure is 4-6MPa. The invention divides the ammonia synthesis process into two stages, which are carried out under a specific pressure, a specific type of catalyst, and a specific hydrogen-nitrogen ratio raw material gas, which not only meets the requirements of the ammonia synthesis process, ensures the smooth operation of the process, but also improves the net value of ammonia at the outlet of the ammonia synthesis tower and nitrogen and hydrogen utilization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ammonia synthesis, and in particular relates to a low-pressure ammonia synthesis process. Background technique [0002] Ammonia is one of the important inorganic chemical products and occupies an important position in the national economy. Except that liquid ammonia can be directly used as fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizers used in agriculture, such as urea, ammonium nitrate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium chloride and various nitrogen-containing compound fertilizers, all use ammonia as raw material. Therefore, synthetic ammonia plays an important role in the national economy. The world's annual synthetic ammonia output has reached more than 100 million tons, of which about 80% of ammonia is used to produce chemical fertilizers, and 20% is used as raw materials for other chemical products. [0003] As we all know, synthetic ammonia is directly synthesized by nitrogen and hydrogen under high temperature, high...
