Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an absorption tower, a system and a method for removing carbon dioxide by an amine method and controlling the escape of organic amines, belonging to the technical field of flue gas treatment. Background Art

[0002] CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is considered an essential technology for achieving current emission reduction targets. CO2 capture primarily involves separating high-purity CO2 from flue gases from fossil and biomass fuel combustion in the power and industrial sectors.

[0003] Among the numerous capture methods, the organic amine method for removing CO2 from flue gas has the greatest potential for industrial application. Its principle is to separate CO2 from flue gas through a reversible chemical reaction between CO2 and an organic amine absorbent. The organic amine absorbent reacts with the flue gas in an absorption tower to absorb CO2, and then is sent to a regeneration tower for a high-temperature reverse reaction to release CO2, thereby producing high-purity CO2 gas. However, while capturing CO2 from the flue gas, the organic amine comes into direct contact with the flue gas, and the flue gas carries some of the organic amine into the atmosphere, causing significant solvent loss and secondary environmental pollution. Conventional organic amine-based CO2 removal processes are subject to amine escape. Organic amine escape primarily occurs in the form of gaseous emissions and aerosol emissions.

[0004] The schematic diagram of the structure of the system for removing CO2 by amine method and controlling the escape of organic amines in the prior art is as follows: Figure 2 As shown. Figure 2 As can be seen, existing technology utilizes a water scrubber and wire mesh demister to control the escape of organic amines. After the flue gas enters the absorption section and directly contacts the organic amine absorbent for decarbonization, it is first cooled in the water scrubber to remove some of the gaseous organic amines. It then passes through a wire mesh demister to remove liquid particles and large aerosol droplets entrained in the gas and liquid, before ultimately being discharged into the atmosphere. Furthermore, the regeneration gas condensate from the top of the regeneration tower, due to its high amine concentration, is generally directly returned to the regeneration tower for reflux.

[0005] However, the current amine-based CO2 removal system and method for controlling organic amine escape have at least the following problems:

[0006] 1. The water wash section can only achieve the organic amine separation efficiency of one tray at most. In the water wash section, wash water is repeatedly pumped from the bottom of the tower, cooled, and circulated to the top. Once the system reaches stable operation, the amine concentration of the wash water can be roughly considered the same from top to bottom throughout the entire water wash section. From the perspective of gaseous organic amine separation, no matter how high the water wash section is, only one tray of gas-liquid equilibrium can be achieved.

[0007] 2. High amine concentration in the water wash section. To recover the organic amines in the wash water, it is typically added to the absorbent as makeup water. Therefore, the water scrubber cannot be overfilled with fresh water, as this would leave the excess wash water with nowhere to go and would have to be treated as waste. Furthermore, large amounts of gaseous and aerosolized organic amines in the flue gas, after being removed by the water wash section, accumulate in the wash section, resulting in high amine concentrations in the wash section and poor control effectiveness.

[0008] 3. Conventional wire mesh mist eliminators have poor control effectiveness. Conventional wire mesh mist eliminators can only effectively control particles larger than 2μm, and their control effectiveness for aerosol droplets is poor. Moreover, in actual working conditions, the low operating air velocity of conventional wire mesh mist eliminators makes their control effectiveness even worse.

[0009] 4. The regeneration gas condensate has a high amine concentration and a narrow application range, and is generally not suitable for replenishing the water washing section. Summary of the Invention

[0010] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention aims to provide an absorption tower, system and method for controlling the escape of organic amines in the amine-based CO2 removal process.

[0019] A third aspect of the present invention provides a method for controlling the escape of organic amines by removing carbon dioxide using an amine method, which is performed using the above-mentioned system for controlling the escape of organic amines by removing carbon dioxide using an amine method. The method comprises the following steps:

[0020] (1) The flue gas enters the absorption tower, contacts with the organic amine absorbent in the absorption section in countercurrent flow, and absorbs CO2 in the flue gas to obtain a rich liquid.

[0040] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives and beneficial effects of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is now described in detail below, but it should not be understood as limiting the scope of implementation of the present invention.

[0041] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figures 3 to 7As shown, the first aspect of the present invention provides an absorption tower 1 for removing carbon dioxide by an amine method and controlling the escape of organic amines, which comprises, from bottom to top, at least: an absorption section 101, a cooling condenser 102, a water washing section 103 and a first multi-layer demister 104;

[0042] The absorption tower 1 is provided with a flue gas inlet and a rich liquid outlet below the absorption section 101, a lean liquid inlet between the absorption section 101 and the cooling condenser 102, and a flue gas outlet above the first multi-layer demister 104;

[0043] The cooling condenser 102 includes a heat exchange unit 121 and a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 ; the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is provided below the heat exchange unit 121 , or the heat exchange unit 121 is interspersed inside the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 .

[0044] In some embodiments, when a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is disposed below the heat exchange unit 121 of the cooling condenser 102, the heat exchange unit 121 comprises a plate heat exchanger and / or a tube-fin heat exchanger, and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 comprises packing and / or trays. In other embodiments, when the heat exchange unit 121 is interspersed within the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 of the cooling condenser 102, the cooling condenser 102 is a packed heat exchanger.

[0045] In some embodiments, the plate heat exchanger includes at least a plurality of plates, a flue gas channel and a cooling water channel; one end of the flue gas channel is a flue gas inlet and the other end is a flue gas outlet, one end of the cooling water channel is a cooling water inlet and the other end is a cooling water outlet, the cooling water channel and the flue gas channel are respectively arranged on both sides of the plurality of plates, and the cooling water channel is arranged countercurrently with the flue gas channel from top to bottom.

[0046] In some embodiments, a tube-fin heat exchanger includes at least a cooling water pipeline and a plurality of fins disposed on the outer wall of the cooling water pipeline. One end of the cooling water pipeline serves as a cooling water inlet and the other end serves as a cooling water outlet. The channel between the plurality of fins serves as a flue gas channel, with one end of the flue gas inlet and the other end serving as a flue gas outlet. The cooling water pipeline is arranged countercurrently with the flue gas channel from top to bottom (e.g., in an S-shaped arrangement). The plurality of fins in the same vertical direction are interconnected to form a plurality of vertically distributed falling film plates. The falling film plates provide sufficient countercurrent contact and heat transfer space between the cooling water and the flue gas, and ensure that the flue gas condensate obtained after the flue gas is cooled can flow vertically downward along the falling film plates to the gas-liquid mass transfer unit.

[0047] In some embodiments, when a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is provided below the heat exchange unit 121 of the cooling condenser 102 and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 includes a filler, the specific surface area of ​​the filler is 200 m 2 / m 3The area of ​​the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 arranged per unit cross-sectional area of ​​the absorption tower 1 is 300m 2 / m 2 When the cooling condenser 102 is provided with a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 below the heat exchange unit 121 and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 includes a tray, the tray includes an overflow tray, the tray leakage is 20mm / h or less (ie 0.02m 3 / (m 2 h) below), the number of plates is 3-9.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present invention, a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is preferably further arranged below the plate heat exchanger and / or the tube-fin heat exchanger. The flue gas condensate generated after the flue gas is cooled by cooling water flows out through the flue gas outlet at the bottom of the plate heat exchanger and / or the tube-fin heat exchanger, and passes through the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 from top to bottom. The flue gas after passing through the absorption section 101 in the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is in countercurrent contact with the flue gas condensate from bottom to top, thereby allowing the flue gas condensate to further contact and transfer mass with the flue gas, thereby increasing the gas residence time of the cooling condenser 102 and absorbing the organic amines in the flue gas.

[0049] In some embodiments, when a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is provided below the heat exchange unit 121 of the cooling condenser 102 and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 includes a filler, the plate heat exchanger and / or the tube-fin heat exchanger is provided with a flue gas condensate diversion structure. Preferably, the flue gas condensate diversion structure includes a serrated and / or wavy structure formed by a combination of the lower edges of several plates of the plate heat exchanger and / or a combination of the lower edges of several fins of the tube-fin heat exchanger, or the flue gas condensate diversion structure includes a flue gas condensate diversion plate provided below several plates of the plate heat exchanger and / or below several fins of the tube-fin heat exchanger. More preferably, the spacing between each two adjacent serrated peaks and / or wave peaks in the serrated and / or wavy structure is less than 5 cm. In the embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned flue gas condensate diversion structure is preferably provided to prevent uneven distribution of flue gas condensate when entering the filler.

[0050] In other embodiments, when a gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is provided below the heat exchange unit 121 of the cooling condenser 102 and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is a tower plate, the plate heat exchanger and / or tube-fin heat exchanger does not need to be provided with the above-mentioned flue gas condensate diversion structure.

[0051] In some embodiments, a packed heat exchanger includes at least a plurality of packing plates and cooling water pipes interspersed within the plurality of packing plates; one end of the cooling water pipe is a cooling water inlet and the other end is a cooling water outlet. The cooling water pipe is interspersed through the plurality of packing plates and is in direct contact with the plurality of packing plates. The gaps in the plurality of packing plates serve as flue gas passages, and the cooling water pipe is arranged in countercurrent with the flue gas passages from top to bottom (e.g., in an S-shaped arrangement). Preferably, the specific surface area of ​​the plurality of packing plates of the packed heat exchanger is 200 m 2 / m 3 The area of ​​the packing plates arranged per unit cross-sectional area of ​​the absorption tower is 300m 2 / m 2 When the cooling condenser 102 is a packed heat exchanger, the heat exchange unit 121 is a cooling water pipeline, and the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122 is a plurality of packing plates. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the packing plates not only play a role in gas-liquid mass transfer, but also play a role in heat transfer.

[0052] The present invention incorporates a cooling condenser 102 between the absorption section 101 and the water washing section 103, providing ample space for gas-liquid heat and mass transfer. This cooling condenser 102 can reduce the flue gas temperature by 2-10°C. The flue gas undergoes countercurrent contact heat transfer with cooling water and countercurrent contact mass transfer with flue gas condensate, achieving gas-liquid equilibrium of organic amines across multiple trays. Furthermore, cooling the flue gas promotes aerosol particle size growth, facilitating subsequent aerosol removal.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first multi-layer demister 104 includes a wire mesh layer, wherein the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh or three layers of wire mesh; when it includes two layers of wire mesh, the specific surface area of ​​the lower layer of wire mesh is 250-650m 2 / m 3 , the specific surface area of ​​the upper screen is 500m 2 / m 3 When it includes 3 layers of wire mesh, the specific surface area of ​​the lower wire mesh is 250-650m 2 / m 3 , the specific surface area of ​​the middle wire mesh is 500m 2 / m 3 Above, the specific surface area of ​​the upper screen is 800m 2 / m 3Above. Preferably, when the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh, the lower wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 150μm-400μm), and the upper wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm) or a co-woven wire mesh of non-metallic wire (the wire diameter is preferably 5μm-50μm) and metal wire (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm); when the wire mesh layer includes three layers of wire mesh, the lower wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 150μm-400μm), the middle wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm), and the upper wire mesh includes a co-woven wire mesh of non-metallic wire (the wire diameter is preferably 5μm-50μm) and metal wire (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm). More preferably, the material of the non-metallic wire includes one or a combination of glass fiber, polypropylene, and polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0054] In some embodiments, the total height of the wire mesh layer of the first multi-layer demister 104 is 150 mm to 300 mm. Preferably, when the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh, the height ratio of the lower wire mesh to the upper wire mesh is 1:1; when the wire mesh layer includes three layers of wire mesh, the height ratio of the lower wire mesh, the middle wire mesh, and the upper wire mesh is 1:1:1 to 2:1:1.

[0055] In some embodiments, the operating air velocity of the first multi-layer demister 104 is 1-3 m / s, preferably 1-2 m / s.

[0056] In some embodiments, the absorption tower 1 further includes a second multi-layer demister 105 disposed between the cooling condenser 102 and the water washing section 103. In addition to the first multi-layer demister 104 disposed above the water washing section 103, the second multi-layer demister 105 is preferably disposed below the water washing section 103. The second multi-layer demister 105 can reduce the amine concentration in the water washing section 103, reduce the amount of aerosolized organic amines entering the water washing section 103, and slow down the accumulation of amines in the water washing section 103.

[0057] In some embodiments, the second multi-layer demister 105 includes a wire mesh layer, wherein the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh or three layers of wire mesh; when it includes two layers of wire mesh, the specific surface area of ​​the lower layer of wire mesh is 250-650m 2 / m 3 , the specific surface area of ​​the upper screen is 500m 2 / m 3 When it includes 3 layers of wire mesh, the specific surface area of ​​the lower wire mesh is 250-650m 2 / m 3 , the specific surface area of ​​the middle wire mesh is 500m 2 / m 3 Above, the specific surface area of ​​the upper screen is 800m 2 / m 3Above. Preferably, when the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh, the lower wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 150μm-400μm), and the upper wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm) or a co-woven wire mesh of non-metallic wire (the wire diameter is preferably 5μm-50μm) and metal wire (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm); when the wire mesh layer includes three layers of wire mesh, the lower wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 150μm-400μm), the middle wire mesh includes a metal wire mesh (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm), and the upper wire mesh includes a co-woven wire mesh of non-metallic wire (the wire diameter is preferably 5μm-50μm) and metal wire (the wire diameter is preferably 50μm-200μm). More preferably, the material of the non-metallic wire includes one or a combination of glass fiber, polypropylene, and polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0058] In some embodiments, the total height of the wire mesh layer of the second multi-layer demister 105 is 150 mm to 300 mm. More preferably, when the wire mesh layer includes two layers of wire mesh, the height ratio of the lower wire mesh to the upper wire mesh is 1:1; when the wire mesh layer includes three layers of wire mesh, the height ratio of the lower wire mesh, the middle wire mesh, and the upper wire mesh is 1:1:1 to 2:1:1.

[0059] In some embodiments, the operating air velocity of the second multi-layer demister 105 is 1-3 m / s, more preferably 1-2 m / s.

[0060] The present invention has found through research that organic amines emitted in the form of aerosols are more difficult to handle than organic amines emitted in the form of gaseous emissions. Organic amines emitted in the form of aerosols are mainly aerosol droplets with a particle size of 0.6μm-10μm. Conventional wire mesh demisters can usually only effectively control particles larger than 2μm, and have poor control effects on aerosol droplets. Moreover, the optimal operating air velocity of conventional wire mesh demisters is generally 3-4m / s, while the air velocity in actual working conditions is about 1-2m / s, which makes its control effect even worse. The optimal operating air velocity of the first multi-layer demister 104 and the second multi-layer demister 105 of the present invention is 1-2m / s, which meets the requirements of actual working conditions.

[0061] The embodiment of the present invention improves the demister in the existing amine method CO2 absorption tower. Under the premise of keeping the mesh layer height unchanged (150mm-300mm), a layered stacking design is adopted, which can be divided into 2 or 3 layers. The lower layer of the first multi-layer demister 104 and the second multi-layer demister 105 has a large liquid load, and a lower specific surface area (250-650m 2 / m 3) and a metal wire mesh with a larger wire diameter (150 μm-400 μm) to promote the convergence of droplets while preventing liquid flooding and gas entrainment. The upper liquid load of the first multi-layer demister 104 and the second multi-layer demister 105 is small, and the specific surface area is 500m 2 / m 3 As mentioned above, metal mesh with a wire diameter of 50μm-200μm, or a co-woven wire mesh of non-metallic wire with a wire diameter of 5μm-50μm and metal wire with a wire diameter of 50μm-200μm, has an operating air velocity more suitable for absorption tower 1, and the wire mesh with a smaller wire diameter is more effective in controlling aerosols around 1μm. Therefore, the specially designed multi-layer wire mesh demister with a dense upper layer and loose lower layer in the embodiment of the present invention promotes droplet convergence while preventing liquid flooding and gas entrainment, improves the control effect of aerosol droplets, and has a more suitable operating air velocity.

[0062] In some embodiments, the absorption tower 1 is further provided with a wash water outlet below the wash section 103, and a wash circulating water inlet above the wash section 103 (specifically, provided between the wash section 103 and the first multi-layer demister 104), the wash water outlet being connected to the wash circulating water inlet via a wash water circulation pipeline; and the absorption tower 1 is further provided with a wash reflux water nozzle 108 above the cooling condenser 102 (preferably between the second multi-layer demister 105 and the cooling condenser 102), the wash reflux water nozzle 108 being connected to the wash water outlet via a wash reflux pipeline. A wash water cooler 106 may be provided on the wash water circulation pipeline. The wash return water nozzles 108 are used to use excess water from the wash section as supplemental return water for the absorption section 101 and to flush the cooling condenser 102. This excess water from the wash section, along with the flue gas condensate, flows from top to bottom through the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122, cleaning the cooling condenser 102 while increasing the wetting rate of the gas-liquid mass transfer unit 122, thereby improving the gas-liquid mass transfer efficiency. The number of wash return water nozzles 108 can be adjusted routinely by those skilled in the art. The wash return water nozzles 108 can be configured for continuous or intermittent reflux.

[0063] In some embodiments, the water washing section includes a primary water washing section 131 and a secondary water washing section 132 from bottom to top; the primary water washing section 131 and the secondary water washing section 132 are respectively provided with a water washing water outlet below, a water washing circulating water inlet above, and a water washing water circulation pipeline connecting the water washing water outlet and the water washing circulating water inlet of each section; and the primary water washing section 131 and the secondary water washing section 132 are respectively provided with a water washing return water nozzle 108 below, and a water washing return pipeline connected to the water washing water outlet. Specifically, a first washing water outlet is provided below the primary washing section 131, and a first washing circulating water inlet is provided above the primary washing section 131. The first washing water outlet is connected to the first washing circulating water inlet through a first washing water circulating pipeline, and preferably a first washing water cooler 161 is provided on the first washing water circulating pipeline. A first washing return water nozzle 181 is provided above the cooling condenser 102 (preferably between the second multi-layer demister 105 and the cooling condenser 102). The first washing return water nozzle 181 is connected to the first washing water outlet through a first washing return pipeline, and is used to use the excess water of the primary washing section 131 as supplementary return water for the absorption section 101, and to flush the cooling condenser 102. A condenser 102; a second water washing water outlet is provided below the secondary water washing section 132, and a second water washing circulating water inlet is provided above the secondary water washing section 132 (specifically, it is provided between the secondary water washing section 132 and the first multi-layer demister 104); the second water washing water outlet is connected to the second water washing circulating water inlet through a second water washing water circulation pipeline, and preferably a second water washing water cooler 162 is provided on the second water washing water circulation pipeline, and a second water washing return water nozzle 182 is provided below the second water washing water outlet, and the second water washing return water nozzle 182 is connected to the second water washing water outlet through a second water washing return pipeline, for using the excess water of the secondary water washing section 132 as supplementary return water for the primary water washing section 131.
