Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention specifically relates to a biogas fermentation, purification, liquefaction and carbon capture process. Background Art
[0002] Biogas projects are gradually developing towards large and medium-sized ones. The abundant biogas resources are facing the problem of subsequent consumption, especially when it is difficult to integrate into the natural gas pipeline network and power generation grid. This problem is more prominent.
[0003] An existing patent, patent number CN110078561A, discloses a method for comprehensive utilization of feces and crop straw by combined fermentation. First, hydrogen peroxide and urea are added to the straw for pretreatment, and then biogas is added for pyrolysis. The pyrolyzed straw is mixed with livestock and poultry manure, sprayed with biogas mist, and then anaerobic fermentation is carried out. Part of the biogas produced by the fermentation enters the boiler to generate steam, and the steam is returned to the fermentation system as a heat source or for heating in winter. The other part enters the gas pipeline as fuel gas. The biogas after solid-liquid separation is used as organic fertilizer, and the biogas residue is further pyrolyzed to produce gas; the second prior art patent No. CN111256431B discloses a mixed refrigerant biogas pressurized liquefaction system and its working method, the biogas is desulfurized, dehydrated, filtered and then pressurized by a biogas pretreatment unit, and a high-purity CH4 flow and CO2-rich biogas flow are obtained by a secondary membrane separation unit, and pressurized liquid CH4 and food-grade liquid CO2 are obtained by pressurized liquefaction and rectification; the third prior art patent No. CN111912168A discloses a biogas purification and liquefaction system, which consists of a carbon dioxide separation system, a refrigeration cycle loop and a biogas liquefaction loop. The carbon dioxide separation system uses a low-temperature liquefaction method to remove carbon dioxide. The water is first removed by a gas-liquid separator, and the gas enters the compressor. After being cooled by a heat exchanger, it enters the gas-liquid separator again to separate the liquid carbon dioxide.
[0004] However, the above patent has some shortcomings in practical application:
[0005] The existing patent is a process of "using feces and crop straw as raw materials and high-temperature anaerobic fermentation". The above process has the following problems: the fermentation temperature range is wide (50°C ~ 55°C), which can easily cause unstable gas generation, complex process flow, large consumption of chemical agents and high energy consumption.
[0006] The second existing technology uses the "dry desulfurization + two-stage membrane separation" process to separate CH4, CO2 and H2S from biogas, and combines the "mixed refrigerant four-stage compression + cryogenic distillation" process to obtain the product LNG + LCO2. The above process has the following problems: dry desulfurization and two-stage membrane separation of CO2 cannot meet the requirements of natural gas liquefaction; the four-stage compression process of mixed refrigerant is complex, energy-intensive, and has high investment and operating costs. At the same time, CH4, CO2, H2S and biogas residues in biogas are not recovered to the maximum extent, resulting in a waste of resources.
[0007] The third existing technology adopts low-temperature liquefaction to obtain LCO2 products and separate CH4, and combines the mixed refrigerant two-stage compression "pre-cooling + main cooling" process to obtain LNG products. The above process has the following problems: H2S in biogas is not removed, which cannot meet the requirements of NG and CO2 liquefaction, and there are safety hazards; CO2 liquefaction is not deeply dehydrated first, which is easy to cause equipment freezing and blocking. At the same time, the pre-cooling + main cooling process of natural gas liquefaction is complicated to operate. For this reason, we propose a biogas fermentation purification liquefaction and carbon capture process. Summary of the invention

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] (1) The present invention adopts the "biogas purification, liquefaction and carbon capture" process mode to separate and liquefy CH4, H2S and CO2 in biogas to produce liquid CH4 and CO2. During desulfurization, H2S is effectively removed by combining wet and dry methods in series. A mixed refrigerant compression unit with cold box precooling to provide cold capacity and two-stage compression can avoid the large energy consumption required for four-stage compression. Before CO2 is liquefied, it is deeply dehydrated and desulfurized first, which can effectively reduce the use of cold energy and reduce the occurrence of freezing and blockage of equipment. The process structure is simple.
[0026] (2) The “high temperature hydrolysis + aerobic bacteria” method is adopted to significantly improve the degradation rate of straw, improve the utilization rate of straw to a limited extent, avoid the use of chemical agents, and no chemical hazardous waste is generated. The high temperature constant temperature (51°C) anaerobic fermentation technology is adopted to significantly improve the killing rate of parasite eggs and shorten the fermentation time. By adjusting the ratio of straw and feces, the gas production rate and methane content per unit volume are significantly improved;
[0027] (3) The new process of "pressure swing adsorption + MDEA decarbonization" is adopted to solve the problems of the existing biogas purification processes, which mainly include water washing and membrane separation processes. The gas processing accuracy cannot meet the requirements for LNG production, the methane yield is low, and the membrane components are dependent on imports. At the same time, the new CO2 liquefaction model is combined to achieve 100% localization of technology and equipment, which is also conducive to ensuring that the methane yield is increased to more than 99%.
[0028] (4) Adopting the "solar collector + heat pump unit" process, the whole-field heat energy recovery is realized to provide heat for the biogas fermentation system, ensuring stable fermentation temperature and stable gas production;
[0029] (5) Under the action of microorganisms, the biogas residue is fermented into solid organic fertilizer using the "secondary fermentation" technology, thus maximizing the utilization of biogas residue. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0053] The process steps of the present invention are:
[0054] Step A: The straw crushed by the crushing unit 1a is mixed with the feces from the homogenization tank 2a and sent to the hydrolysis tank 3a. After being hydrolyzed by the bacteria at high temperature for a certain period of time under an aerobic environment, it is sent to the high-temperature anaerobic fermentation tank 4a. After the mixed materials are anaerobic fermented at high temperature of 51°C, the generated biogas is temporarily stored in the double-membrane gas cabinet 5a and then sent to the desulfurization unit 1b. The substrate sludge of the high-temperature anaerobic fermentation tank 4a is sent to the fermentation tank unit 1b of the organic fertilizer production system 4;
[0055] Step B: The biogas enters the desulfurization unit 1b and is first subjected to wet desulfurization and then dry desulfurization to remove H2S concentration to ≤6mg / Nm3, and then is pressurized and cooled by the first-stage booster unit 2b, and then enters the PSA decarbonization unit 3b together with the non-condensable gas from the CO2 purification and liquefaction unit 4c. After rough decarbonization by the PSA decarbonization unit 3b, biogas is obtained, and the CO2 content of the biogas is ≤3%;
[0056] Step C: After the biogas is pressurized and cooled by the secondary pressurization unit 4b, it is sent to the MDEA fine decarbonization unit 5b and the dehydration and mercury removal unit 6b to remove CO2, H2O and Hg in sequence (concentration index: CO2≤50ppm, H2O≤1ppm, Hg≤0.01μg / m 3 ), enters the liquefied cold box unit 7b to deep cool the biogas to -162°C (before throttling), and then is sent to the LNG loading unit 8b. After throttling, the gas phase refrigerant and the liquid phase refrigerant are respectively reheated by the liquefied cold box unit 7b and flow back to the entrance of the mixed refrigerant compressor unit 10b;
[0057] Step D: The CO2 analysis gas produced by the PSA decarbonization unit 3b is first metered and filtered by the CO2 metering and filtering unit 1c, and then sent to the CO2 compression unit 2c for pressurization and cooling, and then deeply dehydrated by the CO2 dehydration unit 3c, and sent to the CO2 purification and liquefaction unit 4c for purification and liquefaction to obtain the LCO2 product, which is sent to the LCO2 storage tank 5c, and finally loaded and transported by the LCO2 loading unit 6c, while the non-condensable gas produced by the CO2 purification and liquefaction unit 4c flows back to the PSA decarbonization unit 3b.
[0058] Step E: The substrate sludge from the high-temperature anaerobic fermentation tank 4a is proportioned with auxiliary materials such as plant straw and fermentation bacteria according to the formula requirements, and after mixing, it is evenly sent to the fermentation tank unit 1d by a forklift. After turning the pile 1-2 times, the oxygen provided by the contact between the material and the air during turning the pile is continuously aerobic fermented, so that the fermented material is quickly decomposed, sterilized, deodorized, dehydrated and dried. The fermentation cycle is 10-20 days. After the fermentation is completed, the material is sent to the secondary fermentation unit 2d for stacking and fermentation. After further decomposition and dehydration, it is sequentially passed through the feeding unit 3d, the crushing unit 4d, the screening unit 5d and the powder fertilizer packaging unit 6d to obtain a powdered finished organic fertilizer.
[0059] Step F: The hot water in the hot water tank 3e is transported to the solar collector 1e through the solar hot water pump 2e, and after being heated, it flows back to the hot water tank 3e, and then is transported to the electric heater 5e through the hot water pump 4e, and then transported to the heat pump unit 6e; using circulating water as a carrier, the waste heat of the biomass biogas purification and liquefaction system and the CO2 purification and liquefaction system is transported to the heat pump unit 6e. Under the action of the heat pump unit 6e, the hot water is heated to 65-75°C, and after being transported to the biogas fermentation system 1, it flows back to the hot water tank 3e.
[0060] The principle of biogas liquefaction and carbon capture of the present invention is described as follows:
[0061] Biogas desulfurization principle:
[0062] In desulfurization, the principle of wet desulfurization is to use Fe in the desulfurizer 3+ It undergoes redox reaction with H2S, and the chemical reaction equation is as follows:
[0063] H2S(g)+2Fe 3+ (aq)→2H + (aq)+$ + +Fe 2+ (aq)
[0064] The principle of desulfurization rich liquid regeneration is to use oxygen in the air to 2+ Oxidized to Fe 3+ , the chemical reaction equation is as follows:
[0065] 1 / 2O2(g)+H2O(I)+2Fe 2+ (aq)→2OH - (I)+2Fe 3+ (aq)
[0066] Dry desulfurization is to fill the desulfurizer in the filling tower. After the biogas and the desulfurizer come into contact, the H2S in it is removed. The reaction formula is as follows:
[0067] Fe2O3·4H2O+H2S→Fe2S3+4H2O
[0068] Fe2S3+3 / 2O2+3H2O→Fe2O3·H2O++2H2O+3S
[0069] PSA decarbonization principle:
[0070] Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology uses the property that the equilibrium adsorption capacity of the adsorbent increases with the increase of the partial pressure of the component to perform pressurized adsorption and reduced pressure desorption. The cyclic change of pressure is the driving force for separation, so that one or more components can be concentrated or purified.
[0071] MDEA decarbonization process principle:
[0072] MDEA is N-methyldiethanolamine, with the molecular formula CH3-N(CH2CH2OH)2, molecular weight 119.2, boiling point 246-248℃, flash point 260℃, freezing point -21℃, latent heat of vaporization 519.16KJ / Kg, miscible with water and alcohol, slightly soluble in ether. Under certain conditions, it has a strong absorption capacity for acidic gases such as CO2, and has low reaction heat, low desorption temperature, stable chemical properties, and no degradation. Pure MDEA solution does not react with CO2, but its aqueous solution can react with CO2 as follows:
[0073] CO2+H2O==H++HCO3 - (1b)
[0074] H++R2NCH3==R2NCH3H + (2b)
[0075] Formula (1b) is controlled by the liquid film, and the reaction rate is extremely slow. Formula (2b) is an instantaneous reversible reaction. Therefore, formula (1b) is the control step of MDEA absorbing CO2. In order to speed up the absorption rate, after adding 1-5% of the activator DEA (RNH) to the MDEA solution, the reaction proceeds as follows:
[0076] R2 / NH+CO2==R2 / NCOOH(3b)
[0077] R2 / NCOOH+R2NCH3+H2O==R2 / NH+R2CH3NH+HCO3 - (4b)
[0078] (3b)+(4b):
[0079] R2NCH3+CO2+H2O==R2CH3NH+HCO3 - (5b)
[0080] From formula (3b) to (5b), it can be seen that the activator absorbs CO2 and transfers CO2 to the liquid phase, which greatly accelerates the reaction rate, and MDEA is regenerated. The MDEA molecule contains a tertiary amine group, which generates bicarbonate after absorbing CO2. The heat required for heating regeneration is much lower than that of carbamate generated by primary and secondary amines.
[0081] Principles of natural gas dehydration and CO2 dehydration:
[0082] The principle of molecular sieve membrane dehydration is to use the regular pores of molecular sieve to achieve selective adsorption of water. Molecular sieve is a microporous crystal composed of a certain substance, and there are some pores and gaps in its structure. The size and shape of these pores and gaps are very regular, forming a molecular "screener" effect.
[0083] Principle of natural gas liquefaction:
[0084] The principle of natural gas liquefaction is to obtain cold energy by pressurizing and throttling the refrigerant to deep cool the gas phase natural gas. The MRC refrigeration process is adopted. The liquefied refrigerant mainly contains nitrogen, CH4, ethylene, isobutane and other components mixed in a certain proportion.
[0085] Principle of CO2 purification and liquefaction:
[0086] The CO2 liquefaction and purification system uses cryogenic distillation. This means that the difference in volatility and boiling point of each component in the liquid mixture is used to partially vaporize the liquid mixture multiple times and then partially condense it, so as to separate the components contained therein, thereby purifying the substance and finally obtaining a qualified product.
