Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of chemical purification equipment, and particularly relates to a device for removing ammonia from hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas and purifying hydrogen cyanide. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hydrogen cyanide is a colorless liquid with the molecular formula HCN, a molecular weight of 27.03, a boiling point of 26 DEG C, and a bitter almond taste. Hydrogen cyanide is a highly hazardous and toxic medium, and the lethal dose is 1 mg / kg of body weight. The maximum allowable concentration of hydrogen cyanide in the air is 1 mg / m 3 (1 ppmv in volume).

[0003] Hydrogen cyanide is a widely used basic chemical raw material, and downstream products such as adiponitrile, methionine, sodium cyanide, insecticides, and herbicides have a large demand. Taking the downstream product adiponitrile as an example, an adiponitrile device with an annual output of 300,000 tons needs to consume tens of millions of tons of hydrogen cyanide every year. In recent years, with the breakthrough of the domestic adiponitrile technology, the demand for adiponitrile is more than one million tons, so the demand for hydrogen cyanide will also increase accordingly. Although hydrogen cyanide has a wide range of uses and a huge demand, due to its characteristics as a highly toxic medium, there are fewer domestic and foreign enterprises that master the safe production technology of hydrogen cyanide, thus limiting the large-scale development of hydrogen cyanide products.

[0004] In the synthesis method of hydrogen cyanide, whether it is the An process (methane ammonia oxidation method), BMA method, or methanol ammonia oxidation method, the hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas includes unreacted ammonia and product hydrogen cyanide that needs to be absorbed. The presence of ammonia can cause hydrogen cyanide to polymerize to produce black polymers, which can seriously block equipment pipelines and even cause explosions and other hazards. Therefore, a high-efficiency and safe ammonia removal process is needed before the absorption of hydrogen cyanide into a liquid phase. After the removal of ammonia, the product should be absorbed as much as possible, on the one hand to improve the product recovery rate, and on the other hand to avoid the HCN content in the tail gas exceeding the standard to affect the downstream incineration device. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-efficiency and safe process for removing ammonia from hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas and absorbing hydrogen cyanide.

[0005] Patent No. CN102502707A proposes a process for pressurized absorption of hydrogen cyanide from hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas. The pressurized absorption needs to set up a compressor, which increases the equipment investment. At the same time, the temperature of the synthesis gas after pressurization will increase, which will intensify the polymerization of hydrogen cyanide. In addition, the current hydrogen cyanide ammonia removal and absorption process has the following problems:

[0006] 1. The ammonia removal process is low in efficiency. The conventional pickling process will cause the ammonia gas to be entrained by the mist to the downstream absorption tower when the production load fluctuates, which will increase the ammonia content of the absorption tower.

[0007] 2. The hydrogen cyanide absorption process is unreasonable, which leads to a high temperature of the absorption tower, a large amount of absorbent, a large number of tray numbers, and high investment and energy consumption.

[0008] 3, not consider the accident condition of ammonia and hydrocyanic acid processing related emergency measures, resulting in ammonia and hydrocyanic acid content in the exhaust gas over standard; lead to production process can not long-term, safe, stable operation. SUMMARY

[0048] The operation process of the hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas ammonia removal and purification device is as follows:

[0049] The hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas S01 from the reactor enters the ammonia removal column 1, the hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas pressure is 0.01-0.1 MPaG, the temperature is 150-250℃, the bottom of the ammonia removal column 1 is provided with an ammonia removal circulating pump 7, the circulating liquid S02 is cooled by the ammonia removal cooler 8, mixed with fresh acid, and then enters the first liquid collection package 4 at the top of the ammonia removal column 1, the circulating liquid is divided into two streams S03 and S04 in the first liquid collection package 4, the flow rate of S02 is the sum of the flow rates of S03 and S04, the flow rate of S04 is limited by the flow limiting orifice plate 5, and the excess circulating liquid overflows from the first overflow port of the first liquid collection package 4 to the lower section, the first liquid collection package 4 always maintains the circulating liquid with a residence time of 5-15 min, when a power failure or pump failure accident occurs and the absorbing liquid cannot be circulated, the reactor is stopped, at the same time, the circulating liquid in the first liquid collection package 4 can still maintain the circulating liquid supply time of 5-15 min, so that ammonia gas is also captured and absorbed by the circulating liquid under the accident state; the fresh acid can be sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid or acetic acid, preferably sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, the circulating liquid is in contact with the hydrogen cyanide synthesis gas in the countercurrent absorption section of the ammonia removal column 1, the process gas from which ammonia gas is removed is further subjected to a lean water washing section, so as to prevent the ammonia gas from being carried into the downstream absorption column 2 by gas mist entrainment, the countercurrent absorption section can be a packing or a tray, and the packing is preferred, the lean water washing section is a bubble cap tray, because the flow rate of the lean water washing liquid is small, the gas-liquid mass ratio of the process gas S01 to the circulating liquid S02 is 1-10:1, and the ratio is preferably 2-5:1; the gas-liquid mass ratio of the process gas S01 to the lean liquid S11 is 20-50:1, and the ratio is preferably 30-40:1; the absorbing liquid at the bottom of the column is sent to a sulfur ammonium device;

[0050] The process gas S05 after removing ammonia gas in the ammonia removal tower 1 has a temperature of 40-60°C, enters the absorption tower 2, and the middle section of the tower bottom of the absorption tower 2 is provided with reflux, the reflux liquid is sent to the absorption cooler 10 by the absorption circulating pump 9, and then returned to the tower after cooling, the tower top poor liquid absorbs hydrocyanic acid, and the tower bottom liquid S06 after absorbing hydrocyanic acid is a hydrocyanic acid-rich aqueous solution, referred to as rich liquid. The rich liquid is sent to the rectification tower 3 by the rich liquid pump 14, and the hydrocyanic acid and aqueous solution are purified by the rectification tower 3, the tower top obtains hydrocyanic acid product, and the tower bottom obtains aqueous solution containing trace hydrocyanic acid as poor liquid S07.

When a power failure or pump failure accident occurs and the absorption liquid cannot be circulated, the reactor is stopped. At the same time, the poor liquid in the second liquid collecting pack 6 can still maintain a poor liquid supply time of 5-15 min, ensuring that the hydrocyanic acid will also be captured and absorbed by the absorption liquid in the accident state. The absorption tower 2 system is provided with an emergency acid tank 11. Once the increase of ammonia gas content or polymer in the rich liquid is monitored, the emergency switch valve is opened to add polymerization inhibitor acid to the tower bottom of the absorption tower 2, the polymerization inhibitor is uniformly dispersed in the system by the poor liquid pump 12 and the rich liquid pump 14, the generated polymer is reacted with the acid, the absorption liquid is discharged to the incineration treatment, and the polymer will not accumulate in the system.

[0051] The rich liquid pump 14 and the poor liquid pump 12 are each provided with three pumps, two of which are used and one of which is reserved. The standby pump is automatically started. Even when one pump fails and cannot be opened, half of the poor liquid can still be circulated to absorb hydrocyanic acid.
