Problems solved by technology

However, PSA units often face two key bottlenecks when processing high-hydrogen refinery gas: 1) Refinery gas contains a lot of heavy hydrocarbon components with carbon five and above, and it is difficult to regenerate and desorb after being adsorbed , long-term accumulation will easily lead to the failure of the adsorbent, short service life, and significantly increase the operation and maintenance cost of the adsorption device; 2) PSA tail gas contains a large amount of hydrogen, and its content generally exceeds 50vol%, and even exceeds 65vol% when the performance of the adsorbent is attenuated
Due to the above reasons, the cost of separating and purifying hydrogen from high-hydrogen refinery gas by pressure swing adsorption is relatively high

Abstract

The invention provides a purification technology with a membrane separation strengthening function for hydrogen in high-hydrogen-content refinery gas through pressure swing adsorption, and belongs tothe field of petrochemical industry. According to the technology, an organic vapor membrane separation unit is added to a pre-treatment system of a pressure swing adsorption device, heavy hydrocarboncomponents of carbon 5 or above are efficiently and deeply removed, and the content of the heavy hydrocarbon components is reduced to 0.3 vol% or below; the regeneration conditions of an adsorption agent are improved, the service life of the adsorption agent is prolonged, and the long-term operation stability of the pressure swing adsorption device is improved; a hydrogen membrane separation unitis added to an after-treatment system, organic vapor membrane permeation gas is further recovered, and low-concentration hydrogen in tail gas is subjected to pressure swing adsorption, so that the content of hydrogen in fuel gas is lower than 15 vol%, and the total hydrogen yield exceeds 95%.
