Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of ejectors and supersonic liquefaction, and in particular to a supersonic cyclone oil and gas VOCs condensation recovery system. Background Art
[0002] During the production, storage, transportation, and use of oil products in the petrochemical industry, large amounts of light hydrocarbon components evaporate into the air due to factors such as respiration in oil depots, forming volatile organic chemicals (VOCs). This creates severe environmental pollution and energy waste. Recovering VOCs has significant energy-saving and environmental benefits, as well as significant economic value. my country has formulated standards such as the "Petrochemical Industry Pollutant Emission Standard (GB-31571)," stipulating that non-methane hydrocarbon (NMHC) emission concentrations should be below 120 mg / m³, with a removal efficiency exceeding 95%.
[0003] Current methods for treating VOCs in oil and gas primarily include incineration, condensation, absorption, adsorption, membrane separation, and combinations of these methods. Except for incineration, all of these methods can recover hydrocarbons from VOCs in oil and gas. While absorption, adsorption, and membrane separation are relatively simple, they suffer from issues such as low recovery rates, heat generation from adsorption that can lead to combustion, and limited lifespans for consumables such as absorbents, adsorbents, and separation membranes.
[0004] The condensation method can directly and continuously recover hydrocarbons from oil and gas VOCs, and has a low operating temperature and good safety. Existing oil and gas VOCs condensation recovery systems mostly use two- to three-stage cascade refrigerators, but these consume a lot of energy. At the same time, the refrigeration system has a complex structure, many compressors and other equipment, and the initial investment in equipment is high, which to a certain extent limits the application of the condensation method.
[0005] In addition, the separation effect of oil and gas VOCs can be significantly improved after pressurization, but the temperature increases during the compression process, posing a safety hazard of flammability and explosion. A safer means of pressurizing oil and gas VOCs is needed.
[0006] At present, supersonic cyclone separation technology has been applied to fields such as natural gas liquefaction. Its process structure is simple and does not require additional refrigeration equipment. It shows good liquefaction and separation effects and has certain application prospects in the field of oil and gas VOCs condensation.
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to build a safe, efficient, simple and low-cost oil and gas VOCs condensation recovery process based on the ejector principle and supersonic cyclone separation technology. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a supersonic cyclone oil and gas VOCS condensation recovery system that is safe, efficient, simple in structure and low in cost to address the defects of the existing technology.
