TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coke oven gas purification, in particular to a semi-rich oil heat exchange system for benzene washing process. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the coke oven gas purification process, the final cooling benzene washing process is mainly responsible for the absorption of benzene hydrocarbons in the gas, which belongs to a physical absorption process. Research shows that the following important factors affect the benzene washing effect and the benzene yield:
[0003] 1) the quality of the washing oil;
[0004] 2) the washing oil circulation amount;
[0005] 3) the absorption temperature (the temperature of the gas and the washing oil);
[0006] 4) the structure and the packing of the benzene washing tower.
[0007] The gas is first cooled to about 25 DEG C by the final cooling tower or the final cooling device, and the regulating valve is arranged on the low-temperature water pipeline of the final cooling device. The temperature and the low-temperature water flow are adjusted in series, and the temperature is relatively stable. The benzene in the final cooled gas is removed by the benzene washing tower, and the washing oil circulation amount and the structure and the packing of the benzene washing tower are determined by design and are strictly calculated, which can usually meet the production needs. Therefore, in the production process, the washing oil temperature is the biggest factor affecting the benzene washing effect and the benzene yield. The relevant data and production experience show that the absorption effect of the washing oil on the benzene hydrocarbons is the best when the average temperature of the washing oil is 25-28 DEG C.
[0008] In spring and autumn, when the temperature is suitable, the temperature of the gas and the washing oil remains basically unchanged after passing through the benzene washing tower, and the operation of each index is stable. In summer and winter, due to the solar radiation or the low ambient temperature, the benzene washing tower and the pipeline are equivalent to a huge heat exchange device, which causes the change of the benzene washing temperature and reduces the benzene washing efficiency. Especially for the benzene washing tower with stainless steel corrugated plate packing, the temperature change is larger due to the higher metal heat transfer coefficient. For the two-stage series benzene washing tower, the temperature of the washing oil changes greatly after passing through the 2# benzene washing tower, and the washing oil enters the 1# benzene washing tower, which will seriously affect the benzene washing effect.

[0027] The poor oil valve 3, the poor oil regulating valve 4, the poor oil flowmeter 5, the low-temperature water valve 11, the low-temperature water regulating valve 12, the low-temperature water flowmeter 13 and the temperature meter 8 are interlocked controlled with the switch 7.
[0028] The switch 7 controls the poor oil regulating system or the low-temperature water regulating system (switched between the two in winter and summer) to work, so as to heat the semi-rich oil in winter or cool the semi-rich oil in summer.
[0029] The poor oil cryogenic cooler 17 is provided with a poor oil traffic pipeline valve 2 between the poor oil cooler 16.
[0030] The suitable temperature of the semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 for cooling the semi-rich oil in summer is about 25℃, and the suitable temperature of the semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 for heating the semi-rich oil in winter is about 28℃.
[0031] The semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 is preferably a spiral plate heat exchanger, which has low cost and high heat transfer efficiency.
[0032] Example The circulating amount of the wash oil in a certain plant: 110 m 2 / h, and the packing in the benzene washing tower is stainless steel corrugated plate.
[0033] In winter, the extreme outdoor temperature is -28.8℃, at this time, the temperature of the poor oil entering the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is about 27℃, after passing through the 2# benzene washing tower 19, the temperature of the poor oil is reduced to about 21℃, which affects the benzene washing effect of the 1# benzene washing tower 18. At the same time, it brings a series of problems, such as the condensation of water in the coal gas after the temperature is reduced, the increase of the water content in the rich oil, which affects the stable operation of the crude benzene distillation, and at the same time, it brings the vibration of the rich oil pipeline, which brings certain safety hazards. If the temperature of the poor oil entering the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is increased, the benzene washing effect of the 1# benzene washing tower 18 is correspondingly improved, but the benzene washing effect of the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is reduced; therefore, the overall benzene removal effect after the series connection is poor.
[0034] In summer, the extreme outdoor temperature is -37.2℃, at this time, the temperature of the poor oil entering the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is about 27℃, after passing through the 2# benzene washing tower 19, the temperature of the poor oil is increased to about 33℃, which affects the benzene washing effect of the 1# benzene washing tower 18. If the temperature of the poor oil entering the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is reduced, the benzene washing effect of the 1# benzene washing tower 18 is correspondingly improved, but the benzene washing effect of the 2# benzene washing tower 19 is reduced.
[0035] Similarly, the reduction of the temperature also causes the increase of the water content in the rich oil, which further affects the stable operation of the crude benzene distillation, therefore, the overall benzene removal effect after the series connection is also poor.
[0036] In view of the above situation, a suitable spiral plate heat exchanger is selected, and the calculation process is as follows:
[0037] A. In winter: since the semi-rich oil is heated and then passes through the 1# benzene washing tower, it will continue to be cooled, therefore, the upper limit is suitable, and it is appropriate to heat to about 28℃.
[0038] Poor oil at medium temperature 40℃→33℃
[0039] Semi-rich oil 28℃←21℃
[0040] Calculated temperature difference: △Tm=12℃
[0041] The specific heat of the semi-rich oil is about 1.8kJ / kgK, the specific heat of the poor oil at medium temperature and the specific heat of the semi-rich oil are approximately equal, and the poor oil at medium temperature is calculated to be used for heating, that is, the amount q=110 m 2 / h
[0042] Oil-oil heat exchange, heat transfer coefficient K is 250kcal / m2.℃.h
[0043] Total heat transfer amount: Q=Cp(T2-T1)q=363825kcal / h
[0044] According to Q=KA△Tm, the area of the heat exchanger is calculated: A=122m2
[0045] B. Summer: Since the semi-rich oil heat exchange, still need to go through the 1# washing benzene tower, will continue to warm, so it is appropriate to take the lower limit, heat exchange to ~ 25 ℃ is more appropriate.
[0046] Low temperature water 16 ℃→20 ℃
[0047] Semi-rich oil 25 ℃←33 ℃
[0048] The temperature difference is calculated: △Tm=10.88 ℃
[0049] Semi-rich oil specific heat ~ 1.8 kJ / kgK, low temperature water specific heat ~ 1 kJ / kgK, the amount of low temperature water 104 m 2 / h
[0050] Total heat transfer: Q=Cp(T2-T1)q=415800 kcal / h
[0051] Water-oil heat exchanger, heat transfer coefficient of 350 kcal / m2.℃.h
[0052] The heat exchanger area is calculated: 119 m 2
[0053] For the above example, under extreme conditions, due to the difference in heat transfer area is not big, the fluid flow and flow rate are basically the same, and considering a certain rich capacity, a F=130 m 2 Spiral plate heat exchanger can be selected as a common semi-rich oil cooler 15.
[0054] When working:
[0055] Summer, hot, heat intensity, washing benzene effect decline, open semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 inlet low temperature water valve (11) and low temperature water return pipe (14) on the valve, semi-rich oil heat exchanger (15) through the low temperature water inlet pipe (10) access to low temperature water cooling, will change the switch (7) into the low temperature water regulating system, according to the semi-rich oil outlet temperature, that is, temperature table (8), semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 inlet low temperature water regulating valve (12) and semi-rich oil heat exchanger inlet low temperature water flow meter (13) cascade regulation. When stopped, all the valves should be closed and thoroughly vented and purged.
[0056] When the effect of washing benzene is decreased due to cold winter environment and low ambient temperature, open the valve on the inlet lean oil of semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 (3), the lean oil pipeline (9) after the heat exchange of medium temperature lean oil and the valve on the return pipeline (6), close the valve on the lean oil pipeline (2), semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 is connected to the medium temperature lean oil heating at about 40℃ through the pipeline (1) before the heat exchange of medium temperature lean oil, connect the switch (7) to the medium temperature lean oil regulating system, according to the semi-rich oil outlet temperature, i.e. the temperature table (8), the cascade regulation is carried out between the semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 inlet lean oil regulating valve (4) and the semi-rich oil heat exchanger 15 inlet lean oil flowmeter (5). The excess medium temperature lean oil can be returned to the lean oil pipeline after the lean oil cooler 16 through the return pipeline (6) and continue to be cooled in the lean oil cryogenic cooler 17. The regulating valve is arranged on the low temperature water pipeline of the lean oil cryogenic cooler 17, the cascade regulation is carried out between the lean oil temperature into the 2# benzene washing tower and the low temperature water flow, therefore, the lean oil temperature into the 2# benzene washing tower is relatively stable. When the device is stopped, all the valves above should be closed and completely emptied and purged except the valve (2) on the lean oil pipeline.
[0057] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any skilled person in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application.
