Embodiment 1

[0033] Taking the 115,000-ton / year ethylene plant of the production scale as an example, a method for recovering pressure energy of the ethylene plant of the present invention is adopted, such as figure 1 As shown, the process flow is as follows: the quenched and compressed cracked gas 11 flowing out from the ethylene cracking furnace outside the boundary enters the bottom of the absorption tower 1, and the low-temperature lean liquid absorbent 23 after the temperature is reduced and the pressure is increased enters the top of the absorption tower 1 , in the absorption tower 1, the cracked gas 11 is in countercurrent contact with the low-temperature lean liquid absorbent 23, the acid gas hydrogen sulfide H2S and carbon dioxide CO2 in the cracked gas 11 are absorbed by the low-temperature lean liquid absorbent 23, and the purified cracked gas is removed from the acid gas 12 flows out from the top of the absorption tower 1 and sends it out of bounds. The high-pressure rich liqui...

Embodiment 2

[0040] Same as [Example 1], only the production scale is changed to 300,000 tons / year ethylene plant, the cracking raw material is changed to 100% heavy naphtha, and the composition of the cracked gas entering the separation unit is changed accordingly, as shown in Table 3.

[0041] The cracked gas composition list of table 3 separation unit

[0042] component name methane hydrogen carbon dioxide Vinyl carbon two Propylene carbon three carbon four heavy component total Yield / wt% 14.00 0.15 19.90 3.10 12.00 0.10 8.10 42.65 100.00

[0043] The process parameters are as follows: the cracked gas 11 entering the bottom of the absorption tower 1 contains acid gas carbon dioxide CO2 with a mass fraction of 0.15%; the purified cracked gas 12 flowing out of the top of the absorption tower 1 contains acid gas carbon dioxide CO2 The mole fraction is ≤ 2.0ppm. The operating pressure of absorption tower 1 is 1.9MPa, the operating temperature at...

Embodiment 3

[0046] Same as [Example 1], except that the production scale is changed to 700,000 tons / year ethylene plant, the cracking raw material is changed to 100% ethane, and the composition of the cracked gas entering the separation unit is changed accordingly, as shown in Table 4.

[0047] The cracked gas composition list of table 4 separation unit

[0048] component name methane hydrogen acid gas Vinyl carbon two Propylene carbon four heavy component water total Yield / vol% 38.39 0.19 31.51 24.54 0.76 0.18 0.09 4.34 100.00

[0049] The process parameters are as follows: the cracked gas 11 entering the bottom of the absorption tower 1 contains acid gas hydrogen sulfide H S and carbon dioxide CO The mole fraction is 0.19%; the purified crack gas 12 flowing out of the top of the absorption tower 1 contains acid gas hydrogen sulfide H S and carbon dioxide CO The score is ≤ 2.0 ppm. The operating pressure of absorption tower 1 is 2.0MPa, the ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for recovering pressure energy in an ethylene plant, which mainly solves the problems of large energy consumption and high power and electricity costs in the prior art. The present invention adopts a method for recovering pressure energy from an ethylene unit, and a pressure recovery device is added between the absorption tower and the desorption tower to convert the high-temperature rich liquid absorbent from high pressure to a low-pressure rich liquid absorbent. The low-pressure lean liquid absorbent is changed from low pressure to high-pressure lean liquid absorbent, thereby saving external energy and electricity costs. The technical solution solves the above problems well, and can be used in ethylene plants.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recovering pressure energy in an ethylene plant. Background technique [0002] Ethylene production by steam thermal cracking is the most mature olefin production process technology. It uses petroleum cracking raw materials to undergo carbon chain scission or dehydrogenation reaction under high temperature conditions to produce ethylene and propylene products. At the same time, butene, butadiene and pyrolysis gasoline can also be obtained. , pyrolysis diesel, pyrolysis fuel oil and other by-products. The ethylene unit is a typical petrochemical large-scale commercial industrial production unit that uses steam thermal cracking to prepare ethylene. Usually, the content of acid gas hydrogen sulfide H2S and carbon dioxide CO2 in the cracked gas flowing out of the cracking furnace is 0.02-0.19mol%. For grade ethylene and polymer grade propylene, it is generally required to remove hydrogen sulfide H2S and carbon dioxide ...
