Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to urea production and chemical solution preparation technology, in particular to a device for preparing low-content biuret automotive urea solution and an application method. Background Art
[0002] Currently, heavy-duty trucks, buses, and other diesel vehicles must meet China IV emission standards by using a suitable SCR system for exhaust treatment. This system utilizes urea solution to treat nitrogen oxides in the exhaust, making automotive urea solution a must-have for heavy-duty trucks and buses meeting China IV emission standards. SCR technology requires minimal engine modifications, has low fuel and oil requirements, offers advantages in continuous technology upgrades, and eliminates the risk of catalyst clogging. Therefore, SCR technology is the most suitable emission reduction technology for heavy-duty diesel vehicles in my country's national conditions.
[0003] The preparation of automotive urea solution is one of the important conditions for the implementation of SCR technology in diesel vehicles such as heavy-duty trucks and buses. Automotive urea solution is a urea aqueous solution with a concentration of 32.5% and the solvent is ultrapure water. The production raw materials are special raw materials for automotive urea and ultrapure water. The key point lies in the purity of the raw materials. At present, the purity requirements of automotive urea are very high. Ordinary urea or urine cannot meet the high purity requirements of automotive urea. The quality of automotive urea products on the market is difficult to meet international standards, especially the problem of excessive biuret in automotive urea. From the perspective of production technology, the preparation of automotive urea is particularly critical. Only through strict process control and scientific automotive urea production technology can the biuret content in automotive urea be as low as 0.6%-0.7%. The biuret content in the automotive urea solution with a concentration of 32.5% is as low as 0.23%, which is far lower than the national standard GB29518-2013 "Urea Aqueous Solution - Nitrogen Oxide Reductant for Diesel Engines (AUS32)" which requires a biuret content of 0.3% (mass) in the urea aqueous solution.

[0007] The application method of the present invention comprises the following steps: raw liquid ammonia enters a liquid ammonia storage tank, is further pressurized by an ammonia booster pump and a high-pressure ammonia pump, and then is sent to a urea synthesis tower through an ammonia preheater. The liquid ammonia entering the synthesis tower is mixed with carbon dioxide pressurized by a compressor and then reacted in the urea synthesis tower. The reaction product exiting the synthesis tower flows to a stripping tower for stripping. During the stripping process, the gas at the top is mixed with the liquid from the medium-pressure absorption tower sent by the high-pressure methylammonium pump and then enters a high-pressure methylammonium condenser to produce by-product steam. The condensed gas-liquid mixture enters a high-pressure methylammonium separator for separation. The separated liquid phase is returned to the synthesis tower through a methylammonium ejector, and the gas is sent to the bottom of the medium-pressure decomposer through a pressure control valve.
[0008] The solution leaving the bottom of the stripping tower is decompressed to 17.6×10 5 Pa (absolute) enters the medium-pressure decomposer, and the solution enters the middle part for heating and decomposition after being separated at the top. The temperature at the bottom of the medium-pressure decomposer is controlled at 150-154°C, and the liquid level is controlled at 40-60%. The gas coming out of the top of the medium-pressure decomposer is mixed with the ammonium carbonate liquid from the medium-pressure ammonium carbonate liquid pump and enters the shell side of the vacuum pre-concentrator for condensation and absorption. The vapor-liquid mixture coming out of the vacuum pre-concentrator enters the medium-pressure condenser. The mixture from the medium-pressure condenser flows into the lower part of the medium-pressure absorption tower. The gas separated from the solution enters the upper distillation section, where CO2 is absorbed and NH3 is distilled off. The gaseous ammonia and inert gas coming out of the top of the medium-pressure absorption tower enter the ammonia condenser for condensation. The condensed liquid ammonia enters the liquid ammonia storage tank. The inert gas saturated with ammonia is sent to the absorption section of the medium-pressure inert gas scrubber, where it is washed and absorbed by countercurrent water to recover the gaseous ammonia. The inert gas is discharged from the tower.
[0009] The solution leaving the bottom of the medium pressure decomposer is decompressed to 5.0×10 5 Pa (absolute) enters the low-pressure decomposer, and the solution is separated at the top and then enters the middle part for heating and decomposition. The temperature at the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer is controlled at 134-138°C, and the liquid level is controlled at 10-30%. The gas coming out of the top of the low-pressure decomposer enters the ammonia preheater and the low-pressure condenser in turn into the ammonium carbonate liquid storage tank. The ammonium carbonate liquid is returned to the shell side of the vacuum pre-concentrator through the medium-pressure ammonium carbonate liquid pump. The gas that is not condensed and absorbed is washed in the low-pressure inert gas scrubber and then discharged.
[0010] The solution coming out from the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer is decompressed to 0.66x10 5Pa (absolute) enters the vacuum pre-concentrator. The upper part of the vacuum pre-concentrator is a separator. When the solution from the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer enters the separator, the flash gas released is separated into vapor and liquid here. The solution enters the heating section of the pre-concentrator, and the liquid level is controlled at 50-70%. The urea solution from the bottom of the vacuum pre-concentrator is sent to the first vacuum concentrator of the evaporation system through the urea solution pump. The water in the solution is evaporated by heating. Its operating pressure is 0.65x10 5 Pa (absolute), the temperature is 125-130 ℃, and the gas-liquid mixture from the first vacuum separation concentrator is separated into gas and liquid in the first vacuum separation concentrator. The urea solution from the first vacuum separation concentrator enters the second vacuum concentrator, which has an operating pressure of 0.05x 105Pa (absolute) and a temperature of 133-137 ℃. The water in the solution is evaporated by heating, and then enters the second vacuum separation concentrator for gas-liquid separation. The separated gas from the first and second stages is condensed and absorbed and then sent to the analytical system. The liquid enters the bottom of the separation concentrator, with the temperature controlled at 133-135 ℃ and the liquid level controlled at 50-70%. It is then sent to the vehicle urea crude preparation tank via the molten urine pump.
[0011] Ultrapure water produced from desalted water by the EDI water production equipment is stored in an ultrapure water storage tank and pumped into the rough urea tank for automotive use via an ultrapure water pump. After the liquid level in the rough urea tank rises to 30%, a portion of the urine from the second vacuum separation concentrator is pumped into the rough urea tank via a molten urea pump. Urine and high-purity water are roughly mixed at a volume flow rate of 1:1 and then pumped into the raw urea tank via a urine pump. From the raw urea tank, the urine pump pumps the urine to a blending tank, where it is mixed with high-purity water to create a urea solution with a urine concentration of approximately 32.5%. The prepared urea solution is then pumped to the finished urea tank via a blending tank pump and ultrafiltration filter element, and then packaged via a finished product pump.
[0012] The significance of the invention:
[0013] 1. The present invention is to produce molten urea with low biuret content after the raw materials liquid ammonia and CO2 react under high temperature and high pressure conditions, and then pass through a stripping tower, a medium-pressure decomposer, a low-pressure decomposer, a vacuum pre-concentrator, a first evaporation stage, and a second evaporation stage. By mixing with ultrapure water, a urea solution for automobiles with low biuret content is produced.
[0014] 2. In order to reduce the content of biuret in the product, the system before the device is adjusted first. The specific process adjustment measures are as follows: reduce the temperature and liquid level of the medium-pressure decomposer. The temperature of the medium-pressure decomposer is adjusted from 155-160℃ to 150-154℃, and the liquid level of the medium-pressure decomposer is adjusted from 50%-80% to 40%-60%; the temperature of the low-pressure decomposer is adjusted from 138-143℃ to 134-138℃, and the liquid level of the low-pressure decomposer is adjusted from 50%-80% to 10%-30%.
[0015] 3. In the ammonia stripping urea process, 61.8% of the biuret in urea granules is produced during the pre-concentration and evaporation stages one and two, and the granulation process in the upper tower. By adjusting the process parameters, the biuret content of the molten urine at the outlet of the molten urea pump was reduced from 0.9% to 0.7%. This was achieved by adjusting the evaporation system, adjusting the liquid level of the falling film vacuum pre-concentrator to 50%-70%, the vacuum (0.65x105 Pa) and temperature (125-130°C) of the evaporation stage one, the vacuum (0.05x 105 Pa) and temperature (133-137°C) of the evaporation stage one, and the temperature (133-135°C) and liquid level (133-135°C) of the separator storage tank in the evaporation stage two.
[0016] 4. Innovation in the extraction of liquid urine using a molten urine pump. Since the urine is directly mixed with ultrapure water after extraction, the urine concentration will quickly drop by about 50% from 98-99%, and the urea solution temperature will drop from 135°C to about 70°C. Through this process, firstly, the urine concentration will drop significantly, which will prevent urea from forming biuret according to the reaction mechanism; secondly, the biuret reaction is an endothermic reaction, and a significant drop in urine temperature will be unfavorable for the formation of biuret.
[0017] 5. The innovative molten urine pump extracts liquid urine. The ammonia content in the molten urine will be significantly lower than that extracted after pre-concentration and evaporation. This can ensure that the ammonia content in the prepared automotive urea solution is the lowest, effectively improving the quality of the automotive urea solution.
[0018] 6. Innovation in extracting liquid urine from the molten urine pump can avoid the biuret produced by the molten urine passing through the upper tower pipeline and the spraying granulation process. In this process, the biuret content in urea can be increased by 0.1%.
[0019] 7. By extracting liquid urine in the molten urine pump, the continuous production of automotive urea solution can be achieved, avoiding the repetition of processes caused by re-dissolving the molten urine to prepare automotive urea solution after solidification of urea granules.

2. The application method of the device for preparing a low-content biuret vehicle urea solution according to claim 1, characterized in that: The raw liquid ammonia enters the liquid ammonia storage tank (11), is pressurized by the ammonia booster pump (14) and the high-pressure ammonia pump (15), and is then sent to the urea synthesis tower (1) through the ammonia preheater (18). The liquid ammonia entering the urea synthesis tower (1) is mixed with the carbon dioxide pressurized by the compressor and reacts in the urea synthesis tower (1); the reaction product from the urea synthesis tower (1) flows to the stripping tower (2) for stripping. During the stripping process, the gas at the top is mixed with the liquid from the medium-pressure absorption tower (9) sent by the high-pressure methylammonium pump (13) and then enters the high-pressure methylammonium condenser (3) to produce steam as a by-product. The gas-liquid mixture after condensation enters the high-pressure methylammonium separator (4) for separation. After separation, the liquid phase returns to the urea synthesis tower (1) through the methylammonium ejector (5), and the gas is sent to the bottom of the medium-pressure decomposer (7) through the pressure control valve; The solution leaving the bottom of the stripping tower (2) is decompressed to 17.6×10 5 Pa enters the medium-pressure decomposer (7), and the solution is separated at the top and then enters the middle part for heating and decomposition. The temperature at the bottom of the medium-pressure decomposer (7) is controlled at 150-154°C, and the liquid level is controlled at 40-60%. The gas from the top of the medium-pressure decomposer (7) and the ammonium carbonate liquid from the medium-pressure ammonium carbonate liquid pump (22) are mixed and then enter the shell side of the vacuum pre-concentrator (23) for condensation and absorption. The vapor-liquid mixture from the vacuum pre-concentrator (23) enters the medium-pressure condenser (8), and the mixture from the medium-pressure condenser (8) flows into the lower part of the medium-pressure absorption tower (9). The solution at the bottom of the medium-pressure absorption tower (9) is condensed and absorbed by the high-pressure ammonium carbonate pump (1 3) The pressure is increased, and then the gas is sent to the high-pressure methylammonium condenser (3) after passing through the high-pressure methylammonium preheater (6). The gas separated from the solution in the medium-pressure absorption tower (9) enters the upper distillation section, where CO2 is absorbed and NH3 is distilled off. The gaseous ammonia and inert gas coming out of the top of the medium-pressure absorption tower (9) enter the ammonia condenser (10) for condensation. The condensed liquid ammonia enters the liquid ammonia storage tank (11). The inert gas saturated with ammonia is sent to the absorption section of the medium-pressure inert gas scrubber (12) and is washed and absorbed by countercurrent water to recover the gaseous ammonia. The ammonia water produced by washing is sent to the medium-pressure absorption tower (9) through the ammonia solution pump (16). The inert gas not absorbed is discharged from the tower and vented; The solution leaving the bottom of the medium pressure decomposer (7) is decompressed to 5.0×10 5 Pa enters the low-pressure decomposer (17), and the solution is separated at the top and then enters the middle part for heating and decomposition. The temperature at the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer (17) is controlled at 134-138°C, and the liquid level is controlled at 10-30%. The gas coming out of the top of the low-pressure decomposer enters the ammonia preheater (18) and the low-pressure condenser (19) in turn and enters the carbon ammonium liquid tank (20). The carbon ammonium liquid is returned to the shell side of the vacuum pre-concentrator (23) through the medium-pressure carbon ammonium liquid pump (22). The gas that is not condensed and absorbed is washed in the gas ammonia absorption tower (21) and then discharged. The solution coming out of the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer (17) is decompressed to 0.66x10 5 Pa enters the vacuum pre-concentrator (23). The upper part of the vacuum pre-concentrator is a separator. When the solution from the bottom of the low-pressure decomposer enters the separator, the flash gas released is separated into gas and liquid here. The solution enters the heating section of the pre-concentrator. The liquid level is controlled at 50-70%. The urea solution from the bottom of the vacuum pre-concentrator (23) is sent to the first vacuum concentrator (25) of the evaporation system through the 85% urine pump (24). The water in the solution is evaporated by heating.
