Description

Technical Field

[0002] Low-carbon hydrocarbons are basic raw materials in the chemical industry, mainly including alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, etc. with carbon 1 to carbon 5. Common gases include natural gas, dry gas, liquefied gas and other mixtures. Taking natural gas as an example, its main component is methane, which is a clean, efficient, high-quality and relatively environmentally friendly energy. The advantages of natural gas as a clean energy are becoming increasingly prominent. The use of natural gas is of great significance for optimizing the energy structure, promoting energy conservation and emission reduction, and improving the atmospheric environment. In recent years, the global market demand for natural gas has shown a huge upward trend. Compared with the traditional land natural gas extraction, the extraction of marine natural gas has also attracted more and more attention, occupying an increasingly important position, and alleviating the problem of natural gas demand.

Limited by the limited space of the marine mining platform and the complex influence of ocean fluctuations, the traditional high-tower sulfur and carbon purification devices and processes used on land are not suitable for swaying marine platforms.

The micro-droplets break away from the first rotating disk 112 and diffuse to the entire first inner cavity 113, and the gas and liquid are in intense contact in the first inner cavity 113 area to achieve absorption of hydrogen sulfide impurities in the marine natural gas, and then the gas and liquid are discharged from the first gas outlet 115 and the first liquid outlet 117 respectively, and the gas is sent to the carbon impurity purification device for carbon impurity purification;

[0116] After reacting with the complex iron solution, the gaseous hydrogen sulfide is converted into sulfur element, and a solid sulfur product is formed in the liquid; the liquid-solid mixture at the first liquid outlet 117 of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 101 is sent to the liquid-solid separator 102 to separate the liquid from the solid sulfur product; the separated solid sulfur is sent to the product storage tank 104 for storage, and the liquid is sent to the second liquid inlet 126 and the liquid distributor of the first two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 101, and micro-droplets are generated by the second rotating disk 122; the air from the fan 107 is controlled by the valve and the flow meter, and is sent to the second inner cavity 123 of the first two-stage micro-droplet generator 101, and in the second inner cavity 123, the air contacts the liquid film on the surface of the second rotating disk 122 and the micro-droplets of the complex iron solution, and the iron ions in the complex iron solution are oxidized and regenerated by the oxygen in the air;

[0117] The complex iron solution after oxidation regeneration is sent to the liquid buffer tank 105 through the second liquid outlet 127 of the first two-stage micro-droplet generator 101, and is sent to the first liquid inlet 116 of the first two-stage micro-droplet generator 101 for recycling after being controlled by the pump 106 through the valve 108 and the flow meter 109; a small amount of complex iron solution is mixed in the air at the second gas outlet 125 of the first two-stage micro-droplet generator 101, which is sent to the first gas-liquid condensation separator 103, and the condensed liquid is sent to the liquid buffer tank 105, and the air can be directly discharged;

[0118] The carbon impurities in the marine natural gas are mainly carbon dioxide; the gas from the sulfur purification device is sent to the second two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 201 in the carbon impurity purification device; that is, the natural gas containing carbon impurities enters the first inner cavity 113 through the first gas inlet 114 of the second two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 201 in the carbon impurity purification device, and the alcohol amine solution is sent to the first rotating disk 112 through the first liquid inlet 116 and the liquid distributor. Under the action of centrifugal force, the liquid forms micro-droplets at the edge of the first rotating disk 112, and the micro-droplets break away from the first rotating disk 112 and diffuse to the entire first inner cavity 113. The gas and liquid are in intense contact in the inner cavity area to achieve the absorption of carbon dioxide in the natural gas, and then the gas and liquid are discharged from the first gas outlet 115 and the first liquid outlet 117 respectively; the alcohol amine solution can be monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, methyldiethanolamine and their composite alcohol amine solutions;

[0119] The carbon-containing alcohol amine rich liquid is sent to the heat exchanger 206 from the first liquid outlet 117 of the second two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 201 for preheating, and then sent to the second liquid inlet 126 and the liquid distributor of the second two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator 201 from the outlet of the heat exchanger 206, and micro-droplets are generated by the second rotating disk 122; the hot steam from the reboiler 202 is sent to the second inner cavity 123 of the second-stage micro-droplet generator 120 after being controlled by a valve and a flow meter, and heat is exchanged with the liquid film on the surface of the second rotating disk 122 and the micro-droplets of the alcohol amine rich liquid in the second inner cavity 123, and carbon dioxide is separated from the rich liquid by thermal analysis;

[0120] After the alcohol amine rich liquid is resolved, it becomes a lean liquid, which is sent to the reboiler 202 through the second liquid outlet 127 of the second two-stage micro-droplet generator 201. A part of it is converted into hot steam and sent to the second gas inlet 124 of the second two-stage micro-droplet generator 201. The other part is sent to the inside of the heat exchanger 206 as a heat source after being controlled by the pump 203 through the valve 204 and the flow meter 205. After heat exchange with the rich liquid from the previous stage, it is sent to the first liquid inlet 116 of the second two-stage micro-droplet generator 201 for recycling.

[0121] The lean liquid hot steam and the analyzed carbon dioxide are sent to the second gas-liquid condensation separator 207 through the second gas outlet 125 of the second two-stage micro-droplet generator 201, the condensed liquid is sent to the reboiler 202, and the carbon dioxide gas is sent to the bubble column reactor 208, and is converted into products through the raw material storage device 209 (storing liquid sodium hydroxide solution) and the product drying storage device 210;

[0122] The bubbling tower reactor 208 includes an aerated microbubble generator, a gas inlet, a liquid inlet, a gas-liquid mixed outlet, and a seal; the carbon dioxide gas from the second gas-liquid condensation separator 207 enters the interior of the aerated microbubble generator through the gas inlet of the bubbling tower reactor 208, and forms microbubbles on the surface of the aerated microbubble generator; liquid sodium hydroxide solution is sent into the interior of the bubbling tower reactor through the liquid inlet, reacts with carbon dioxide microbubbles, generates product sodium carbonate, and is sent to a product storage tank after drying.

[0123] Example 1

[0124] like Figure 1 As shown, the device and process are used for the purification and productization of sulfur and carbon in natural gas on a stable and non-fluctuating offshore platform. The specific steps are as follows:

[0125] Gas flow 1000m 3 / h, of which the volume fraction of hydrogen sulfide is 3% and the volume fraction of carbon dioxide is 5%. The liquid in the sulfur purification section is a complex iron solution with an effective iron ion concentration of 100 mol / m 3 ; The liquid in the carbon purification section is a 20% mass fraction of methyldiethanolamine solution. The disk diameter of the two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur-carbon purification section is 1000mm, and the speed is set to 800r / min. Then the liquid-solid separator, reboiler, gas-liquid condenser and separator are turned on. The liquid delivery pump in the sulfur purification device is started to transfer the complex iron solution in the liquid buffer tank at a speed of 30m 3 / h flow rate is sent to the liquid inlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur purification device; the liquid at the outlet of the first-stage micro-droplet generator is sent to the liquid inlet of the second-stage micro-droplet generator after passing through a liquid-solid separator, contacts with air in the inner cavity of the second-stage micro-droplet generator, and then is sent back to the liquid buffer tank, so that the entire system first forms a liquid circuit circulation and forms a micro-droplet environment in the two-stage inner cavity; the natural gas containing sulfur and carbon impurities is sent to the gas inlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur purification device, and the hydrogen sulfide concentration is detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator. The content of hydrogen sulfide is less than 30ppm; the effective iron ion content in the liquid for absorbing hydrogen sulfide is detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator. 97mol / m 3 The solid sulfur separated from the liquid-solid separator is sent to the product storage tank for storage.

[0126] Add fresh methyldiethanolamine solution to the reboiler to reach the predetermined temperature of 120°. Start the liquid delivery pump in the carbon impurity purification device to pump the lean amine liquid in the reboiler at a rate of 50m 3 / h flow rate is sent to the liquid inlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the carbon impurity purification device; the liquid at the outlet of the first-stage micro-droplet generator is sent to the liquid inlet of the second-stage micro-droplet generator after passing through the heat exchanger, and heat is exchanged with hot steam in the inner cavity of the second-stage micro-droplet generator, and then flows into the reboiler, so that the entire system is first maintained at the temperature required for the reaction and a micro-droplet environment is formed in the two-stage inner cavity; the flow rate of the hot steam is set to 10m 3 / h.

[0127] The natural gas desulfurized in the previous stage was fed into the gas inlet of the first stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the carbon impurity purification device, and the carbon dioxide concentration was detected at the gas outlet of the first stage rotating micro-droplet generator, and the removal rate of carbon dioxide was 97%. The carbon dioxide content in the liquid was detected at the liquid outlet of the second stage rotating micro-droplet generator, and the resolution rate of carbon dioxide was 96%.

[0128] The carbon dioxide gas from the gas-liquid condenser and separator is fed into the bubbling tower reactor. At the same time, the sodium hydroxide liquid is fed into the bubbling tower reactor at a flow rate of 30L / h, and the product at the outlet of the gas-liquid mixture is fed into the liquid storage tank. The purity of the sodium carbonate product in the liquid storage tank meets the requirements and is sent to the next stage for drying and storage.

[0129] Example 2

[0130] On the basis of Example 1, the rotation speeds of the two-stage rotating micro-droplet generators were adjusted to 1200 r / min, and the hydrogen sulfide concentration was detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur purification section. The content of hydrogen sulfide was less than 15 ppm, and the effective iron ion content in the liquid for absorbing hydrogen sulfide was detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator. 99 mol / m 3 The carbon dioxide concentration was detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the carbon purification section, and the removal rate of carbon dioxide was 99%. The carbon dioxide content in the liquid was detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator, and the resolution rate of carbon dioxide was 98%.

[0131] Example 3

[0132] On the basis of Example 1, this device and process are used for the purification and productization of sulfur and carbon in natural gas on an offshore platform that is swaying under the influence of wind and waves. Affected by wind and waves, the swing amplitude of the entire device is 15° away from the center, with a period of 10s. Since a centrifugal force environment is formed inside the two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator, the influence of wind and wave swing on the gas-liquid flow inside the device is overcome. Under the operating conditions of Example 1, in the sulfur purification device, the hydrogen sulfide content detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator is still 30ppm; the effective iron ion content in the liquid for absorbing hydrogen sulfide detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator is still 97mol / m 3 In the carbon impurity purification device, the removal rate of carbon dioxide at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator is still 97%; at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator, the resolution rate of carbon dioxide is still 96%, and the sulfur and carbon purification of the entire section is not affected.

[0134] See also Figure 3 As shown in the figure, on the basis of Example 2, super hydrophobic discs are used inside the two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur purification section, and the contact angle of the disc is 165°. The hydrogen sulfide concentration is detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the sulfur purification section, and the content of hydrogen sulfide is 20ppm. The effective iron ion content in the liquid for absorbing hydrogen sulfide is detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator, which is 98mol / m 3 ; After running for 1000 hours, the micro-droplet generator was turned on, and the surface of the disc was still clean without sulfur agglomeration. A hydrophobic disc was used inside the two-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the carbon purification section, and the contact angle of the disc was 135°. The carbon dioxide concentration was detected at the gas outlet of the first-stage rotating micro-droplet generator in the carbon purification section, and the removal rate of carbon dioxide was 98%. The carbon dioxide content in the liquid was detected at the liquid outlet of the second-stage rotating micro-droplet generator, and the resolution rate of carbon dioxide was 97%.
