Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of coal chemical industry, and in particular relates to a system and method for coal-to-natural gas co-production of methanol. The system includes air separation unit, coal gasification unit, acid gas removal unit, cryogenic separation unit, methanation unit, methanol synthesis unit and methanol rectification unit. This method uses the carbon dioxide discharged from the acid gas removal unit as the raw material gas for methanol synthesis, which can not only ensure the optimal hydrogen-carbon ratio of the methanol synthesis unit, increase the output of methanol, but also reduce CO 2 emissions; supplementing the hydrogen-rich purge gas from the methanol synthesis unit to the methanation unit can not only ensure the optimal hydrogen-carbon ratio of the methanation unit, increase the production of SNG, but also reduce the purge gas emissions. The method improves the utilization rate of carbon element and hydrogen element by coproducing natural gas and methanol, wherein the utilization rate of carbon element can reach more than 50%, and the utilization rate of hydrogen element can reach more than 65%. The amount of natural gas and methanol output can be adjusted according to changes in market prices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coal chemical industry, and specifically relates to a system and method for coal-to-natural gas co-production of methanol. Through this invention, the production of natural gas and methanol of different scales can be realized, and part of the CO removed by the acid gas removal unit can be recycled. 2 gas and recycling of purge gas from the methanol synthesis unit. Background technique [0002] As a clean, safe, convenient and high-quality energy, natural gas (SNG) has always played an important role in the world's energy field. It is widely used in chemical industry, power generation and other industries, as well as commercial and civil fields. Natural gas with high calorific value can also be used as an energy storage carrier. With the continuous and rapid development of my country's economy and the increasing pressure of air pollution control, the gap between natural gas resources and market supply and...
