Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a dry purification device and process for removing total sulfur from blast furnace gas, and in particular to a dry purification device and process capable of removing sulfur-containing substances such as COS, CS2, H2S, SO2 and the like from blast furnace gas and synergistically removing HCl. The present invention belongs to a pollutant control technology in the field of environmental protection engineering technology, and is used for removing total sulfur from blast furnace gas in a set of processes. Background Art
[0002] Blast furnace gas is the combustible gas with the largest output in steel enterprises, with a statistical output of up to 70-80 billion cubic meters per month. The existing blast furnace gas purification and subsequent applications mainly use bag dust removal to remove particulate matter, and then after TRT residual pressure power generation, it is sent to blast furnace hot blast furnaces, steel rolling heating furnaces, gas power generation and other user units for use as fuel, but blast furnace gas still contains harmful substances such as sulfur and chlorine. With the promulgation of the "Opinions on Promoting the Implementation of Ultra-low Emissions in the Steel Industry", the steel industry has officially entered the "ultra-low emission" era. Users such as blast furnace hot blast furnaces, steel rolling heating furnaces, and gas power generation all require that the combustion tail gas SO2 reach ultra-low emission limits, but the existing blast furnace gas purification process cannot meet the SO2 control requirements.
[0003] The current technical routes mainly include source control and end-of-pipe treatment after combustion. If the end-of-pipe treatment method is adopted, desulfurization facilities need to be set up at multiple points. At the same time, the amount of waste gas after coal gas combustion is large, and the scale of treatment facilities becomes larger; if the source control method is adopted, centralized treatment can be carried out, and the amount of coal gas treated is only about 60% of the flue gas after combustion. Therefore, the total investment is low, the total area is small, the operating cost is low, and the management is convenient. At the same time, source treatment promotes the life of the pipeline network and combustion efficiency. Implementing the full sulfur removal of blast furnace gas and reducing the sulfur content in coal gas can greatly reduce the pressure of end-of-pipe treatment and even save end-of-pipe treatment facilities.
[0004] The removal of total sulfur from blast furnace gas is a new technological development direction. Currently, there are many single organic sulfur hydrolysis technologies and dry adsorption removal technologies, and there are also relevant application examples of blast furnace gas dechlorination technology. However, there are no reports or engineering cases on the technology for the removal of total sulfur from blast furnace gas.

Among them, the pneumatic conveying device 19 is connected to the desulfurizer inlet 7 at the top of the desulfurizer bin, and is used to deliver the desulfurizer into the reaction bin 12 to remove all sulfur from the blast furnace gas. Among them, the gas replacement system includes a first gas replacement valve 25, a first release valve 24, a first compressed air pipeline, a first nitrogen pipeline, a second compressed air pipeline, a second nitrogen pipeline, a second gas replacement valve 27 and a second release valve 26; the first nitrogen pipeline and the first compressed air pipeline are connected to the first replacement gas interface 10 through the first gas replacement valve 25, the second nitrogen pipeline and the second compressed air pipeline are connected to the second replacement gas interface 15 through the second gas replacement valve 27, and the first release valve 24 and the second release valve 26 are arranged on the release pipeline for controlling the release of the replaced coal gas.
[0042] like Figure 2As shown, there are 4 desulfurizer bins 3 in the desulfurization tower and 1 in reserve. During operation, the 4 desulfurizer bins take turns to replace the desulfurizer at certain time intervals to ensure the desulfurization effect. During normal operation, the first inlet shut-off valve 8, the second inlet shut-off valve 11, the first outlet shut-off valve 14 and the second outlet shut-off valve 17 are all in a closed state. If the desulfurizer needs to be replaced, first open the first outlet shut-off valve 14 to discharge the desulfurizer in the reaction bin into the outlet buffer bin 16, then close the first outlet shut-off valve 14, open the second gas replacement valve 27 and the second release valve 26, introduce nitrogen into the outlet buffer bin 16 to replace the coal gas in the bin and release it; then close the second gas replacement valve 27 and the second release valve 26, open the second outlet shut-off valve 17, discharge the desulfurizer in the outlet buffer bin 16 through the desulfurizer outlet 18, and transport it away by truck, and close the second outlet shut-off valve 17; Next, the desulfurizer transported by the truck is added to the desulfurizer inlet 7 through the pneumatic conveying device 19, the first gas replacement valve 25 and the first relief valve 24 are opened, and nitrogen is introduced into the inlet buffer bin 9 to replace the gas in the bin and release it; then the first gas replacement valve 25 and the first relief valve 24 are closed, the first inlet shut-off valve 8 is opened, the desulfurizer is discharged into the inlet buffer bin 9, the first inlet shut-off valve 8 is closed, the second inlet shut-off valve 11 is opened, the desulfurizer is discharged into the reaction bin 12, and the second inlet shut-off valve 11 is closed to complete the desulfurizer replacement process. The use of the buffer bin and gas replacement method can prevent the blast furnace gas from leaking and ensure the safe operation of the system. If the desulfurization tower needs to be inspected and repaired, after draining the desulfurizer in the above manner, close the first inlet shut-off valve 8 and the second outlet shut-off valve 17, open the second inlet shut-off valve 11 and the first outlet shut-off valve 14, open the second gas replacement valve 27 and the second vent valve 26, and introduce nitrogen into the entire desulfurization tower to replace the coal gas in the tower and release it, and then purge the entire system with compressed air to ensure the safety of the maintenance personnel.
[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the desulfurizer is a porous column, the carrier is a mixture of zeolite and pumice, the molar ratio of pumice to zeolite is between 0.2-0.5; the active ingredients are mainly one or more of iron oxide, manganese oxide, potassium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate, wherein the active ingredients account for 3%-10% of the mass fraction of the desulfurizer. The desulfurizer is filled with a certain volume so that the desulfurization reaction space velocity is 500-5000h -1 , ensuring efficient removal of pollutants in blast furnace gas.
[0044] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a dry purification process capable of achieving full sulfur removal from blast furnace gas, preferably a dry purification process capable of achieving the removal of sulfur-containing substances such as COS, CS2, H2S, SO2 and the coordinated removal of HCl in blast furnace gas, preferably, the purification process is to adopt Figure 1 ,2 A dry purification process for removing all sulfur from blast furnace gas is shown; it is characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
[0045] (1) The inlet blast furnace gas 1 first enters the catalytic hydrolysis tower for treatment, and the catalyst loaded in the catalytic hydrolysis tower catalytically converts COS and CS2 in the blast furnace gas into H2S;
[0046] (2) The generated H2S enters the desulfurization tower along with the blast furnace gas. The desulfurizer transported by truck is sent to the desulfurization tower through the pneumatic conveying system to absorb H2S, SO2, HCl and other acidic gases, thereby removing the sulfur-containing substances in the blast furnace gas.
[0047] (3) The blast furnace gas treated by the desulfurization tower is discharged through the clean blast furnace gas outlet 21 and sent to the blast furnace gas pipeline network, thereby achieving blast furnace gas desulfurization.
[0048] During operation, the replacement frequency of the desulfurizer is adjusted according to the concentration of H2S in the export gas, so as to remove the sulfur-containing substances in the blast furnace gas and solve the problem of excessive SO2 from the source. At the same time, the coordinated removal of HCl controls the corrosion problem of the gas pipeline to a certain extent.
[0049] The process of the present invention is as follows: the combustible gas (containing nitrogen (N2), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen (H2), hydrocarbons, a small amount of sulfur-containing compounds and dust) produced as a by-product in the blast furnace ironmaking production process is used as the inlet blast furnace gas 1 of the purification process described in the present invention after gravity dust removal, bag dust removal and residual pressure turbine power generation device (TRT). The blast furnace gas passes through a catalytic hydrolysis tower, which is filled with a catalyst. The catalyst uses one or more of activated alumina, activated carbon, cordierite, and hydrotalcite as carriers, one or more of Na, K, Fe, Cu, and Ni salts as active ingredients, and the catalyst configuration is a Raschig ring catalyst. The catalyst is filled with a certain volume so that the catalytic reaction space velocity is 500-4000h -1 , the gas flow rate is 0.5-2m / s, so that in the catalytic hydrolysis tower, 80%-95% volume fraction of COS and CS2 in the blast furnace gas is catalytically converted into H2S. Figure 2 The desulfurization tower is filled with a desulfurizer, which is a porous column, and the carrier is a mixture of zeolite and pumice, with the molar ratio of pumice to zeolite being between 0.2-0.5; the active ingredients are mainly one or more of iron oxide, manganese oxide, potassium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate, of which the active ingredients account for 3%-10% of the mass fraction of the desulfurizer. The desulfurizer is filled with a certain volume so that the desulfurization reaction space velocity is 500-5000h -1 , ensuring efficient removal of pollutants in blast furnace gas.

[0051] COS+H20=CO2+H2S;
[0052] CS2+H20=COS+H2S;
[0053] CS2+2H2O=2H2S+CO2.
[0054] The H2S produced by the reaction and the small amount of HCl, SO2 and other acidic gases existing in the blast furnace gas react with the desulfurizer as follows:
[0055] Fe2O3.H2O+3H2S=Fe2S3.H2O+3H2O
[0056] MnO+H2S=MnO+H2O
[0057] H2S+2KOH=K2S+2H2O, SO2+2KOH=K2SO3+H2O, HCl+KOH=KCl+H2O
[0058] H2S+2Na2CO3=Na2S+2NaHCO3, SO2+2Na2CO3+H2O=2NaHCO3+Na2SO3, HCl+Na2CO3=NaCl+NaHCO3
[0059] In the presence of O2, Na2SO3 can be oxidized to Na2SO4.
