Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of catalyst regeneration, and particularly to a regeneration system and method for a carbon-based catalyst. Background Art
[0002] The carbon-based catalytic method for synergistic control of multiple flue gas pollutants can effectively remove various pollutants such as SOx, NOx, soot, and heavy metal mercury in flue gas, achieving up-to-standard discharge of flue gas. In the existing process flow, SOx is separated from the flue gas through the efficient "adsorption-regeneration" process of the carbon-based catalyst and discharged into the material recycling system for resource utilization. NOx is reduced to harmless substances such as nitrogen and water, and dust is sieved and collected by a screening device for utilization. SOx, NOx, and dust cannot be enriched in large quantities in the material recycling system and can also be effectively treated or utilized after being discharged from the process device. Thus, it can ensure that the carbon-based catalyst can be reused indefinitely in the flue gas pollutant co-treatment device. For heavy metal mercury and its main compounds, at a catalyst regeneration temperature of about 380 - 450 °C, they will also be desorbed and mixed with SO2, H2O, etc. generated during catalyst regeneration to form a desorbed gas (SRG), which is continuously discharged to the sulfur resource utilization device. Under this process, the mercury concentration in SRG is relatively low and cannot be effectively utilized during the sulfur resource utilization process. Moreover, the presence of mercury increases the pretreatment cost of SRG on the one hand, affecting the quality of sulfur products, and on the other hand, causing waste of mercury resources. Summary of the Invention

Thus, a regeneration system and method for a carbon-based catalyst are proposed. The system includes a regeneration tower, a mercury measurement device, an adsorption tower, and a sulfur resource utilization device. Desorbed gas outlets are respectively arranged in the preparation section and the desorption section of the regeneration tower. By adjusting the opening and closing states of the desorbed gas outlets in the preparation section and the desorption section, the flow direction of the desorbed gas is controlled, so that mercury in the desorbed gas is continuously condensed and enriched in the preparation section, and finally, the effective separation of mercury and gases such as SO2 in the desorbed gas is achieved. The system of the present invention can complete the regeneration of the carbon-based catalyst, and at the same time, can effectively separate mercury and gases such as SO2 in the desorbed gas generated during the regeneration process, and respectively utilize the separated mercury and gases such as SO2 for resource utilization.

[0049] In the system of the present invention, in order to reduce the temperature of the desorbed gas and make the desorbed gas entering the mercury adsorption tower 5 meet the intake parameter requirements. Specifically, the intake parameter requirements are determined according to the adsorption material in the mercury adsorption tower 5.

[0055] In the system of the present invention, in order to extract the desorbed gas generated in the regeneration tower 1, in a specific embodiment, a fan 2 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the mercury measurement device 7 and the sulfur resource utilization device 3. The fan 2 can be a conventional selection in the art. In a preferred embodiment, the fan 2 is a high-temperature resistant SO2 fan.
[0056] In the system of the present invention, in order to make the regeneration and desorption process of the carbon-based catalyst safer and to control the flow direction of the final desorbed gas through air pressure control. In the specific implementation, the feeding section 11 is provided with an air inlet 103 for introducing a protective gas into the feeding section 11. The protective gas serves as the protective gas and carrier gas during the catalyst regeneration process, which can prevent leakage and corrosion problems caused by the upward flow of the desorbed gas; the discharging section 16 is provided with an air inlet 104 for introducing a protective gas into the discharging section 16. The protective gas serves as the protective gas during the catalyst cooling process or the carrier gas during the regeneration process. In a specific case, the protective gas can be nitrogen or purified flue gas with a low oxygen concentration. In a preferred case, the protective gas is nitrogen. During the specific implementation process, the protective gas is introduced into the feeding section 11 and the discharging section 16 respectively. When the system is in the normal operation mode, the first gas outlet 101 is opened and the second gas outlet 102 is closed. At this time, the upper gas flows downward and the lower gas flows upward, and the desorbed gas generated after desorption in the desorption section 14 is discharged from the first gas outlet 101 out of the regeneration tower 1. When the system is in the mercury removal mode, the second gas outlet 102 is opened and the first gas outlet 101 is closed. At this time, the upper gas flows downward and the lower gas flows upward, and the desorbed gas generated after desorption in the desorption section 14 is discharged from the second gas outlet 102 out of the regeneration tower 1.
[0057] In the system of the present invention, during the specific operation process, the fan 2 controls the gas pressure and the desorbed gas flow rate in the regeneration tower 1 by coordinating the opening degrees of the first valve 110 and the second valve 120, and by coordinating the intake parameters of the protective gas in the regeneration tower 1. In a specific case, the intake pressure of the protective gas should be controlled below 10 kPa. In a preferred case, the intake pressure of the protective gas is 5 - 8 kPa, such as 5 kPa, 5.5 kPa, 6 kPa, 6.5 kPa, 7 kPa, 7.5 kPa or 8 kPa.
[0058] In the system of the present invention, in order to control the flow rate of the protective gas entering the regeneration tower 1, in the specific implementation, the feeding section 11 is further provided with a first flow regulating valve 105, and the discharging section 16 is further provided with a second flow regulating valve 106. In a specific case, the flow rate of the protective gas entering the regeneration tower 1 is determined by the scale of the regeneration tower, as long as the SO2 concentration in the desorbed gas is about 15%.
[0059] In the system of the present invention, during the specific implementation process, when the system is in the normal operation mode, the first valve 110 is opened, the second valve 120 is closed, and protective gas is introduced into the regeneration tower 1 through the air inlet 103 and the air inlet 104 respectively, and the first flow regulating valve 105 and the second flow regulating valve 106 are used to control the flow rate of the protective gas entering the regeneration tower 1. The carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption is transported to the feeding section 11 and the distribution process of the carbon-based catalyst is completed, so that the carbon-based catalyst continues to flow downward evenly, and then is preheated at the preparation section 12, and finally is heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas generated by heating and desorption flows upward to reach the preparation section 12. Since the temperature of the preparation section 12 is lower than that in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14, the mercury vapor in the desorbed gas is condensed at the preparation section 12 and is re-enriched on the carbon-based catalyst in the preparation section 12. The remaining desorbed gas enriched with SO2 enters the mercury detection device 7 from the first air outlet 101 through the fan 2, the mercury content in the desorbed gas is measured, and the sulfur in the desorbed gas is utilized for sulfur resource recovery in the sulfur resource recovery device 3. When the measured mercury content in the desorbed gas reaches a fixed value or meets the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource recovery device 3, the system stops the normal operation mode and starts the mercury removal mode. In this article, the "fixed value" refers to "the measured value of the mercury content in the desorbed gas no longer increases", and the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource recovery device 3 generally refers to "the mercury concentration value allowed in the inlet gas of the sulfur resource recovery device".
[0060] In the system of the present invention, during the specific implementation process, when the system is in the mercury removal mode, the second valve 120 is opened, the first valve 110 is closed, and the carbon-based catalyst enriched with mercury in the preparation section 12 is heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury generated by heating and desorption enters the mercury adsorption tower 5 from the second air outlet 102, the mercury in the desorbed gas is adsorbed and removed, and the mercury content of the desorbed gas after mercury removal is measured in the mercury detection device 7, and then the desorbed gas is subjected to sulfur resource treatment in the sulfur resource recovery device 3.

[0069] In the second aspect of the present invention, a regeneration method of a carbon-based catalyst is proposed. This method is implemented in the above-mentioned system, and the method includes the following steps:
[0070] (1) Open the first air outlet 101 and close the second air outlet 102 at the same time. Convey the adsorption-saturated carbon-based catalyst to the feeding section 11, and then the adsorption-saturated carbon-based catalyst sequentially passes through the preparation section 12, the heating section 13, and the analysis section 14 for analysis. The generated analysis gas is subjected to mercury condensation enrichment in the preparation section 12. The SO2-containing analysis gas from which mercury has been removed enters the mercury detection device 7 through the first air outlet 101 to measure the mercury content, and then enters the sulfur resource utilization device 3 for treatment;
[0071] (2)When the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorbed gas in step S1 reaches a fixed value or meets the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource utilization device 3, the first air outlet 101 is closed, and at the same time, the second air outlet 102 is opened. The carbon-based catalyst enriched with mercury in the preparation section 12 is sequentially desorbed through the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury enters the mercury adsorption tower 5 through the second air outlet 102, and mercury is adsorbed in the mercury adsorption tower 5. The desorbed gas after mercury adsorption and removal enters the mercury measuring device 7 to measure the mercury content, and then enters the sulfur resource utilization device 3 for treatment.
[0072] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, in step S1, the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption is the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption discharged from the adsorption unit in the flue gas purification device. Specifically, the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption is obtained by the carbon-based catalyst adsorbing flue gas containing sulfur oxides, mercury, nitrogen oxides, water, dust, etc.
[0073] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, in step S1, the flow rate of the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption entering the feeding section 11 is determined by the removal load of the entire flue gas purification device and is affected by the flue gas parameters of the production main system. Generally, it is a stable value. In a preferred embodiment, when the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption reaches a certain bed height in the feeding section 11, it forms a sealing effect on the desorbed gas in the tower, thereby reducing the upward leakage amount of the desorbed gas. Specifically, the bed height is 0.5 - 2.0 m, and for example, it can be 0.5 m, 1 m, 1.5 m, or 2 m.
[0074] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, the temperature in the preparation section 12 ≤ 250 °C. In a preferred embodiment, the temperature in the preparation section 12 is 120 - 250 °C, for example, 120 °C, 150 °C, 180 °C, 210 °C, or 250 °C.
[0075] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, the temperature of the outlet catalyst in the heating section 13 is 380 - 450 °C, and for example, it can be 380 °C, 390 °C, 400 °C, 410 °C, 420 °C, 430 °C, 440 °C, or 450 °C.
[0076] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, the temperature in the desorption section 14 is 380 - 450 °C, and for example, it can be 380 °C, 390 °C, 400 °C, 410 °C, 420 °C, 430 °C, 440 °C, or 450 °C.
[0077] In the method of the present invention, in steps S1 and S2, during the specific operation process, since the temperature of the material layer gradually increases from the preparation section 12 to the analysis section 14, the desorption effect of various pollutants adsorbed by the carbon-based catalyst will continuously enhance and it is difficult to be adsorbed by the material layer again. The carbon-based catalyst can still maintain a good regeneration effect.
[0078] In the method of the present invention, on the one hand, in order to prevent mercury and its compounds from entering the sulfur resource utilization device 3 and affecting the quality of sulfur products, and on the other hand, the enrichment and concentration of mercury and its compounds in the regeneration tower 1 are realized, creating conditions for the resource recovery and utilization of mercury and its compounds. Therefore, step S1 of the present invention is implemented.
[0079] In the method of the present invention, during the specific operation process, in step S1, when in the normal operation mode, the first air outlet 101 is opened, and at the same time the second air outlet 102 is closed. The carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption is transported to the feeding section 11, and then the carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption sequentially passes through the preparation section 12, the heating section 13 and the analysis section 14 for regeneration and desorption. Since the opened air outlet position in the system is the first air outlet 101, the desorption gas generated by the regeneration and desorption flows upward to the preparation section 12. Since the temperature in the preparation section 12 is relatively low, the mercury and its compounds in the desorption gas are condensed in the preparation section 12 and are re-adsorbed on the carbon-based catalyst in the preparation section 12. As the operation time increases, the mercury and its compounds are continuously enriched in the preparation section 12. The SO2-containing desorption gas after mercury removal enters the mercury measurement device 7 through the first air outlet 101 to measure the mercury content, and then enters the sulfur resource utilization device 3 for sulfur resource recovery; the regenerated carbon-based catalyst is cooled in the cooling section 15 and evenly discharged in the discharging section 16.
[0080] In the method of the present invention, in the specific implementation manner, in step S1, when the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorption gas measured by the mercury measurement device 7 no longer increases, that is, reaches a fixed value, it indicates that the carbon-based catalyst in the preparation section 12 has been saturated with adsorption, and step S2 can be started. Or, when the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorption gas measured by the mercury measurement device 7 reaches the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource utilization device 3, step S2 can also be started. In the preferred implementation manner, it is bounded by the lowest value among the fixed value of the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorption gas measured by the mercury measurement device 7 or when the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorption gas measured by the mercury measurement device 7 reaches the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource utilization device 3.
[0081] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, in step S2, before the mercury-enriched desorbed gas enters the mercury adsorption tower 5, it is first passed into the cooling device 4 for cooling. In a preferred embodiment, the cooling temperature is 100 - 250 °C, for example, 100 °C, 150 °C, 175 °C, 200 °C, 225 °C or 250 °C. In a preferred embodiment, in step S2, the cooling product obtained from the cooling device 4 is subjected to recovery treatment in the waste liquid treatment device 6.
[0082] In the method of the present invention, in a preferred embodiment, in step S2, when the mercury content measured in the mercury measuring device 7 no longer increases, that is, reaches a fixed value, or when the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorbed gas measured by the mercury measuring device 7 reaches the set value of the mercury content in the sulfur resource utilization device 3, it indicates that the adsorbent in the mercury adsorption tower 5 has been saturated with adsorption, and the adsorbent needs to be replaced in time and the mercury adsorbed by the adsorbent is subjected to resource recovery.
[0083] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, in step S2, the regenerated and desorbed carbon-based catalyst enters the cooling section 15 for cooling, and the cooled carbon-based catalyst is evenly discharged from the discharge section 16.
[0084] In the method of the present invention, in a specific embodiment, in step S2, protective gases are respectively introduced into the feed section 11 and the discharge section 16. In the specific implementation process, the protective gas introduced into the feed section 11 serves as a sealing gas, and at the same time, as a carrier gas, it is mixed with pollutant gases such as SO2 generated during the reproduction of the carbon-based catalyst to form a desorbed gas and flow downward to the second gas outlet 102; the protective gas introduced into the discharge section 16 mainly prevents external air from leaking from the lower part of the regeneration tower 1 to the cooling section 15, and avoids spontaneous combustion or over-temperature accidents caused by the high-temperature carbon-based catalyst that has not completed the cooling process coming into contact with a higher concentration of oxygen.
[0085] In the method of the present invention, the time used in step S2 should be controlled within a certain range, and too long will affect the mercury content in the desorbed gas. In a specific embodiment, the running time of step S2 is approximately equal to the time required for the material in the preparatory section 12 to pass through the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14.
[0086] The regeneration system of the carbon-based catalyst of the present invention will be further described below through examples.

[0089] This example is implemented in the regeneration system of the carbon-based catalyst shown in Figure 1 . The system includes a regeneration tower 1, which is a conventional two-stage regeneration tower. The tower body of the regeneration tower 1 successively includes a feeding section 11, a preparation section 12, a heating section 13, an analysis section 14, a cooling section 15, and a discharging section 16 from top to bottom. The feeding section 11 is provided with a protective gas inlet 103 and a first flow regulating valve 105. The discharging section 16 is provided with a protective gas inlet 104 and a second flow regulating valve 106. Among them, the preparation section 12 is provided with a first air outlet 101. The vertical cross-sectional area of the first air outlet 101 gradually decreases along the flowing direction of the analysis gas and opens upward, and its bottom inclination angle is 60°. The first air outlet 101 is located 0.1 m below the lower end of the tube row structure of the preparation section 12. A mercury measurement device 7 and a sulfur resource utilization device 3 are successively arranged on the connecting pipe of the first air outlet 101 along the gas flow direction. Among them, the set value of the sulfur resource utilization device 3 regarding the mercury content is 0.03 mg / m 3 . A first valve 110 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the first air outlet 101 and the mercury measurement device 7. The first valve 110 is a V-type ball valve. A high-temperature resistant SO2 fan 2 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the mercury measurement device 7 and the sulfur resource utilization device 3; the analysis section 14 is provided with a second air outlet 102. The vertical cross-sectional area of the second air outlet 102 gradually decreases along the flowing direction of the analysis gas and opens upward, and its bottom inclination angle is 60°. The second air outlet 102 is located 0.1 m below the lower end of the tube row structure of the analysis section 14. A mercury adsorption tower 5 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the second air outlet 102 and the mercury measurement device 7. Among them, the adsorption material used in the mercury adsorption tower 5 is the same carbon-based catalyst as that in the regeneration tower 1. A second valve 120 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the second air outlet 102 and the mercury adsorption tower 5. The second valve 120 is a V-type ball valve. A cooling device 4 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the second valve 120 and the mercury adsorption tower 5. A third valve 121 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the cooling device 4 and the mercury adsorption tower 5. A fourth valve 122 is arranged on the connecting pipe between the mercury adsorption tower 5 and the mercury measurement device 7; the regeneration system of the carbon-based catalyst further includes a waste liquid treatment device 6, and the cooling device 4 is communicated with the waste liquid treatment device 6.
[0090] According to Figure 1 the regeneration system of the carbon-based catalyst shown in, the following method is implemented. The method includes the following steps:
[0091] S1. When the system is in the normal operation mode, open the first valve 110 and close the second valve 120. Nitrogen is introduced into the feeding section 11 and the discharging section 16 respectively through the protective gas inlet 103 and the protective gas inlet 104, so that the upper gas in the regeneration tower 1 flows downward and the lower gas flows upward. The carbon-based catalyst saturated with adsorption with a sulfur oxide concentration of 70 mg / g and a mercury concentration of 15 μg / g is transported into the feeding section 11 and the distribution process of the carbon-based catalyst is completed, so that the bed height of the carbon-based catalyst reaches 1.5 m, and it continues to flow downward evenly. Then it is preheated at the preparation section 12 with a temperature of 180 °C, and finally heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 with a desorption temperature of 420 °C to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas generated by heating and desorption flows upward to reach the preparation section 12. Since the temperature of the preparation section 12 is lower than that in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14, the mercury vapor in the desorbed gas is condensed at the preparation section 12 and re-enriched on the carbon-based catalyst in the preparation section 12. The remaining desorbed gas enriched with SO2 enters the mercury measuring device 7 from the first gas outlet 101 through the high-temperature resistant SO2 fan 2, the mercury content in the desorbed gas is measured, and the sulfur is resourcefully utilized in the sulfur resource utilization device 3. The measured mercury content in the desorbed gas is 0.03 mg / m 3 , the system stops the normal operation mode and starts the mercury removal mode;
[0092] S2. When the system is in the mercury removal mode, open the second valve 120 and close the first valve 110. The carbon-based catalyst with a mercury concentration of 0.15 mg / g in the preparation section 12 is heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury generated by heating and desorption enters the cooling device 4 and the mercury adsorption tower 5 in sequence from the second gas outlet 102. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury is cooled to make the parameters of the desorbed gas meet the inlet conditions in the mercury adsorption tower 5. The condensate and other sediments generated by cooling are collected in the waste liquid treatment device 6. Then the cooled desorbed gas adsorbs and removes mercury in the mercury adsorption tower 5, and the mercury content in the desorbed gas after mercury removal is measured in the mercury measuring device 7. Then the desorbed gas is subjected to sulfur resource treatment in the sulfur resource utilization device 3. When the mercury content in the SO2-containing desorbed gas measured by the mercury measuring device 7 is 0.03 mg / m 3 , the adsorbent is replaced in time and the mercury adsorbed by the adsorbent is resourcefully recovered. The time for which the system is in the mercury removal mode is the time required for all the carbon-based catalysts saturated with adsorbed mercury in the preparation section 12 to pass through the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14.
[0093] Example 2
[0094] It is implemented in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the adsorbed saturated carbon-based catalyst is changed. The specific operation steps are as follows:
[0095] S1. When the system is in the normal operation mode, open the first valve 110 and close the second valve 120. Nitrogen is introduced into the feed section 11 and the discharge section 16 through the protective gas inlet 103 and the protective gas inlet 104 respectively, so that the upper gas in the regeneration tower 1 flows downward and the lower gas flows upward. The adsorbed saturated carbon-based catalyst with a sulfur oxide concentration of 80 mg / g and a mercury concentration of 20 μg / g is transported into the feed section 11 and the distribution process of the carbon-based catalyst is completed, and it continues to flow downward evenly. Then it is preheated in the preheating section 12 at a temperature of 150 °C, and finally heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 at a desorption temperature of 450 °C to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas generated by heating and desorption flows upward to reach the preheating section 12. Since the temperature of the preheating section 12 is lower than that in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14, the mercury vapor in the desorbed gas condenses at the preheating section 12 and is re-enriched on the carbon-based catalyst in the preheating section 12. The remaining desorbed gas enriched with SO2 enters the mercury measuring device 7 from the first air outlet 101 through the high-temperature resistant SO2 fan 2, the mercury content in the desorbed gas is measured, and the sulfur is resourcefully utilized in the sulfur resource utilization device 3. The mercury content in the desorbed gas is measured to be 0.03 mg / m 3 , the system stops the normal operation mode and starts the mercury removal mode;
[0096] S2. When the system is in the mercury removal mode, open the second valve 120 and close the first valve 110. The carbon-based catalyst with a mercury concentration of 0.2 mg / g in the preheating section 12 is heated and desorbed in the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14 to complete the regeneration process of the carbon-based catalyst. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury generated by heating and desorption enters the cooling device 4 and the mercury adsorption tower 5 in sequence from the second air outlet 102. The desorbed gas enriched with mercury is cooled to make the parameters of the desorbed gas meet the inlet conditions in the mercury adsorption tower 5. The condensate and other sediments generated by cooling are collected in the waste liquid treatment device 6. Then the cooled desorbed gas adsorbs and removes mercury in the mercury adsorption tower 5, and the mercury content of the desorbed gas after mercury removal is measured in the mercury measuring device 7. Then the desorbed gas is subjected to sulfur resource treatment in the sulfur resource utilization device 3. The mercury content in the SO2-containing desorbed gas measured by the mercury measuring device 7 is 0.03 mg / m 3, the system stops the normal mercury removal mode, replaces the adsorbent in time, and conducts resource recovery on the mercury adsorbed by the adsorbent. The time for which the system is in the mercury removal mode is the time required for all the carbon-based catalysts saturated with adsorbed mercury in the preparation section 12 to pass through the heating section 13 and the desorption section 14.
[0097] As can be seen from the above embodiments, by using the regeneration system of the carbon-based catalyst of the present invention, the regeneration of the carbon-based catalyst can be completed. At the same time, the effective separation of mercury and gases such as SO2 in the desorbed gas generated during the regeneration process can be achieved, and the separated mercury and gases such as SO2 can be respectively utilized for resource recovery.
[0098] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.
