Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an apparatus and method for removing grease and pretreatment of coal-to-olefins waste alkaline solution. Background Technology
[0002] The alkaline washing section of a coal-to-olefins plant generates a stream of waste alkaline liquid. Some companies treat this waste alkaline liquid by incineration, while others use wet air oxidation. However, both methods suffer from problems such as high investment, high operating costs, severe blockage, and unstable operation.
[0003] Unsaturated hydrocarbons in waste alkaline solutions undergo free radical reactions under trace oxygen conditions, generating cross-linked polymers. Additionally, oxygen-containing compounds such as aldehydes and ketones in the waste alkaline solutions undergo aldol condensation reactions under alkaline conditions, also forming high-molecular-weight polymers commonly known as "butter." Butter is highly viscous, has poor flowability, and easily clogs equipment and pipes. Furthermore, waste alkaline solutions have high salt content, complex organic pollutant compositions, poor biodegradability, and cannot be directly received by wastewater treatment plants.
[0004] For waste alkali liquid from coal-to-olefins plants, there are domestic cases of directly incinerating it at around 1100℃. However, direct incineration of waste alkali liquid from coal-to-olefins plants presents several challenges: the large volume of waste alkali liquid leads to high investment in incinerators, high operating costs, and a large amount of hazardous waste generated; grease can adhere to nozzles, causing blockages; at high temperatures, molten sodium carbonate can adhere to furnace tubes, causing coking and blockages in the waste heat recovery boiler and quench tower; refractory materials suffer from molten salt corrosion; and the incineration equipment requires frequent shutdowns for maintenance, hindering normal and stable operation.
[0005] Because waste alkaline solutions contain a large amount of grease, methods such as membrane separation, flotation, electrocatalytic oxidation, and strong chemical oxidation cannot operate stably for extended periods. Therefore, the primary task in treating coal-to-olefins waste alkaline solutions is to pretreat the waste alkaline solutions to remove the grease. Only by removing the grease from the waste alkaline solutions can subsequent treatment be facilitated.
[0006] While adding butter inhibitors and optimizing process parameters can reduce the amount of butter produced to some extent, a significant amount still remains. Methods for butter removal include physical separation methods such as gravity separation, coalescence separation, and drum separation; however, due to their respective advantages and disadvantages, these methods have not been widely adopted.
[0007] Currently, in the absence of a suitable technology for treating coal-to-olefins waste alkali, some companies have opted for carbon dioxide adsorption. This process uses a multi-tower alternating adsorption method, which is relatively complex to operate and control, requires a large investment in adsorption and regeneration facilities, and has an adsorbent lifespan of about one year with a short replacement cycle.
[0008] In view of the problems existing in the treatment of coal-to-olefins waste alkaline liquid, it is of great significance to develop a method that can operate stably and continuously, effectively remove grease from the waste alkaline liquid, and allow the grease-free waste alkaline liquid to meet the requirements of wastewater treatment after simple pretreatment. Summary of the Invention
[0009] To address the problems in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide an apparatus and method for removing grease and pretreating coal-to-olefins waste alkaline solution. It can perform fully automated hydraulic grease removal or instrument-controlled grease discharge, offering greater operational flexibility. Furthermore, a pipeline is added to return waste alkali from the bottom of the grease tank to the grease remover. The waste alkaline solution undergoes ozone catalytic oxidation to remove most of the organic matter, the catalyst is recycled, and the waste alkaline solution meets the requirements for wastewater treatment plant acceptance.

[0030] A method for removing grease and pretreating coal-to-olefins waste alkaline liquor using the processing apparatus as described in any one of claims 1-11, characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0031] Step 1: The waste alkaline liquid from coal-to-olefins is transported to the degreaser. The waste alkaline liquid containing grease flows into the degreaser through the water distribution hole and is left to stand. The density difference between the grease and the waste alkaline liquid is used to separate the oil and water. The upper part of the degreaser contains grease, and the lower part contains the waste alkaline liquid containing grease.
[0032] Step 2: The separated butter flows into the butter tank for collection. When the butter in the butter tank reaches the preset maximum liquid level L2, the screw pump is started. The waste alkali liquid at the bottom of the butter tank is first returned to the degreaser through the return pipeline. When the butter in the butter tank reaches the liquid level L3, the return pipeline is closed and the butter is bagged. After the butter is bagged, the bagging pipeline and the return pipeline are purged with nitrogen.
[0033] Step 3: After the processing in Step 1 and Step 2, the waste alkali solution for removing grease in the grease remover flows into the buffer tank. The sulfuric acid injection bag injects sulfuric acid into the outlet pipeline of the grease remover to adjust the pH value of the waste alkali solution for removing grease to 7-9.
[0034] Step 4: The degreased alkali solution with adjusted pH is pumped into ozone oxidation reactor A. A cooler is installed in the connecting pipeline to cool the temperature of the degreased alkali solution to 25-35℃. The cooled degreased alkali solution, together with the catalyst from the catalyst injection package and catalyst recovery unit, is sent into ozone oxidation reactor A. The effluent flows by gravity to ozone oxidation reactor B. The ozone generator introduces ozone into ozone oxidation reactor A and ozone oxidation reactor B to break down and oxidize the recalcitrant organic matter in the degreased alkali solution. Ozone is aerated using perforated pipes.
[0035] Step 5: The oxidized waste alkaline solution after removing the grease flows into the catalyst recovery unit for degassing and precipitation separation. The recovered catalyst is returned to the ozone oxidation reactor A, and the effluent meets the receiving requirements of the wastewater treatment plant.
[0036] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0037] 1. For coal-to-olefins waste alkaline liquor, the main problem with current industrialized treatment processes is the grease blockage at the front end. This invention employs multiple measures to effectively solve the equipment and pipeline blockage problem. Under nitrogen blanketing conditions, the grease remover, grease tank, and their inlet and outlet pipelines are all heated to improve grease flowability; a specially designed separation device is used for non-powered separation of grease from the waste alkaline liquor; the pipe walls and inner walls of the grease tank in contact with grease are lined with oleophobic materials to prevent grease adhesion and blockage during transportation; the lower part of the grease remover is a full tank, while the upper straight section has a small gas phase space, resulting in high volume utilization and a large grease layer thickness, which is beneficial for grease dehydration and facilitates grease discharge.
[0038] 2. This invention makes full use of the pressure resistance characteristics of cylindrical or spherical tanks. The drain outlet of the waste alkali solution for removing grease and the grease discharge outlet are placed at an appropriate height above the highest point of the cylindrical or spherical tank. By utilizing the full volume of the cylindrical or spherical tank, a larger oil layer thickness and the longest possible residence time of the waste alkali solution for removing grease are obtained with a smaller amount of grease stored, thus achieving ideal separation of grease and waste alkali solution and convenient removal of grease.
[0039] 3. This invention removes the butter from the waste alkali solution, and the butter is bagged, which reduces the COD of the waste alkali solution and creates favorable conditions for further treatment.
[0040] 4. This invention removes the grease from the waste alkali solution, and uses ozone catalytic oxidation to remove most of the organic matter. The catalyst is recovered and reused, saving operating costs. The effluent meets the receiving requirements of wastewater treatment plants, reducing the treatment load on these plants. Compared to directly incinerating the waste alkali solution at 1100℃, this method has lower energy consumption, significantly reducing operating costs and saving investment.
