Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of distillation equipment, and in particular relates to a packed tower distillation system based on a two-stage distributor and a distillation process thereof. Background Art
[0002] The distributor is also called liquid distributor, which is mainly installed at the top of the packed tower. Its function is to evenly distribute the liquid on the cross section of the tower. It is an extremely important internal part in the packed tower. It not only affects the mass transfer efficiency of the packing, but also affects the operating elasticity of the packing. In order to avoid the deviation of the liquid in the packing layer in the packed tower, a distributor, that is, a redistributor, is usually set in the middle section of the packed tower.
[0003] However, when the packed tower is performing feeding operation, especially for intermittent distillation towers, the evaporation amount and reflux amount vary greatly at different stages, and sometimes the materials are changed. This leads to very high requirements on the operational flexibility and stability of the distributor and redistributor in the tower. Therefore, the distributor and redistributor play a vital role in the entire distillation system.
[0004] For example, Chinese patent application No. (CN201420516152.2) discloses a distillation tower with a distributor, including a packed distillation tower body, and the top of the packed distillation tower body is connected to a condensation tower, and the bottom of the packed distillation tower body is connected to a kettle, and the packed distillation tower is connected to the condensation tower and the kettle, and the packed distillation tower is provided with a first packing section and a second packing section inside the packed distillation tower body, and the first packing section is arranged above the second packing section, and also includes a liquid tank, and also includes a liquid separation device, and the liquid separation device is connected to a product tank through a first liquid outlet pipe, and also includes a distributor. The distributor of this application has low operating flexibility. If the reflux volume is too much, it is easy to cause the liquid to overflow to the top of the air duct, affecting the distribution uniformity. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a packed tower distillation system and a distillation process based on a two-stage distributor in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, so as to achieve two-stage distribution of liquid, have large operation flexibility and be able to cope with the situation of large reflux volume.
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a packed tower distillation system based on a two-stage distributor, comprising:
[0007] A packed tower, wherein a two-stage distributor is provided at the top of the packed tower, a two-stage redistributor is provided in the tower, a first gas outlet and a reflux port are provided at the top of the tower, and a first gas inlet and a first liquid outlet are provided at the bottom of the tower;

[0011] Wherein, valves are arranged between the second liquid outlet and the reflux port and between the second liquid outlet and the liquid inlet, and a sampling valve is also arranged between the second liquid outlet and the liquid inlet.
[0012] In this technical solution, by adopting a two-stage distributor and a two-stage redistributor, it is convenient to adjust the distributor and the redistributor according to the reflux volume, so as to avoid overflow due to excessive reflux volume, resulting in uneven liquid distribution, and the operation is flexible and stable.
[0013] In the above technical solution, further, it also includes:
[0014] A liquid collecting device, which is installed in the packed tower and is installed above the two-stage distributor and above the two-stage redistributor respectively;
[0015] Wherein, the two-stage distributor and the two-stage redistributor both include:
[0016] The liquid receiving hopper is installed below the liquid collecting device, and the liquid collecting device guides the liquid into the liquid receiving hopper, and a filter screen is installed in the liquid receiving hopper;
[0017] A first distribution pipe is installed below the liquid receiving hopper and is connected to the outlet at the bottom of the liquid receiving hopper by a first connecting pipe;

[0019] Wherein, a plurality of small holes are provided on the bottom surfaces of the first distribution pipe and the second distribution pipe.
[0020] In the present technical solution, the liquid collecting device is used to collect the refluxed liquid and introduce it into the liquid receiving bucket, so that the first distribution pipe and the second distribution pipe can evenly distribute the liquid. When the reflux amount is small, only the second distribution pipe arranged in the lower layer is used for distribution. When the reflux amount is large, the liquid overflows to the first distribution pipe, and the first distribution pipe on the upper layer is started, thereby avoiding liquid overflow and affecting the uniformity of liquid distribution. The filter net can block granular foreign matter and impurities to prevent clogging of small holes.
[0021] In the above technical solution, further, the first distribution pipe includes:
[0022] A first main pipe, the first main pipe is connected to the liquid receiving bucket through a first connecting pipe;
[0023] A first branch pipe, which is in multiple numbers and is installed on the bottom surface of the first main pipe, and a first connecting hole is provided at the connection with the first main pipe;
[0024] Wherein, a plurality of small holes are opened on the bottom surface of the first branch pipe, and the ports of the first main pipe and the first branch pipe are both closed, and a gas phase channel is formed between adjacent first branch pipes.
[0025] In the present technical solution, by configuring the first distribution pipe to be a first main pipe and a plurality of first branch pipes, the first main pipe serves as a guide to facilitate the flow of liquid to the plurality of first branch pipes, and then the plurality of first branch pipes facilitate uniform distribution of the liquid, and a gas phase channel is formed between adjacent first branch pipes. The plurality of gas phase channels can effectively avoid gas resistance and increased pressure drop, and have a buffering and reducing effect on abnormal phenomena such as liquid flooding and material rushing in the tower.
[0026] In the above technical solution, further, the second distribution pipe includes:
[0027] a second main pipe, the second main pipe is connected to the first main pipe through a second connecting pipe;
[0028] A second branch pipe, which is in multiple numbers and is installed on the bottom surface of the second main pipe, and a second connecting hole is provided at the connection with the second main pipe;
[0029] Wherein, a plurality of small holes are opened on the bottom surface of the second branch pipe, and the ports of the second main pipe and the second branch pipe are both closed, and a gas phase channel is formed between adjacent second branch pipes.
[0030] In the present technical solution, by configuring the second distribution pipe to be a second main pipe and a plurality of second branch pipes, the second main pipe serves as a guide to facilitate the flow of liquid to the plurality of second branch pipes, and then the plurality of second branch pipes facilitate uniform distribution of the liquid, and a gas phase channel is formed between adjacent second branch pipes. The plurality of gas phase channels can effectively avoid gas resistance and increased pressure drop, and have a buffering and reducing effect on abnormal phenomena such as liquid flooding and material rushing in the tower.
[0031] In the above technical solution, further:
[0032] The first branch pipe and the second branch pipe are arranged alternately on the same longitudinal plane;
[0033] The small holes on the first branch pipe and the small holes on the second branch pipe are arranged alternately on the same horizontal plane.
[0034] In the present technical solution, the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe are staggered and distributed on the same longitudinal plane, and the small holes on the first branch pipe and the small holes on the second branch pipe are staggered and distributed on the same horizontal plane, and the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe are respectively located at different levels, thereby effectively improving the uniform distribution of the liquid without affecting the gas phase channel, and the distribution points are multiplied, thereby greatly improving the distribution effect.
[0035] In the above technical solution, further:
[0036] The diameter of the small hole on the first branch pipe is larger than the diameter of the small hole on the second branch pipe.
[0037] In the present technical solution, by setting the diameter of the small hole on the first branch pipe at the upper layer to be larger than the diameter of the small hole on the second branch pipe at the lower layer, the flow rate can be increased exponentially when the reflux volume is large, effectively preventing the liquid from overflowing the liquid receiving bucket and affecting the uniformity of the liquid distribution.
[0038] In the above technical solution, further:
[0039] The diameter size of the small hole on the same first branch pipe and the diameter size of the small hole on the same second branch pipe are increased successively along the side close to the inner wall of the packed tower.
[0040] In the technical solution, through the above arrangement, the same first branch pipe or second branch pipe can promote the liquid to flow more easily to the side close to the inner wall of the packed tower, thereby ensuring that all the small holes on the same first branch pipe or second branch pipe participate and ensuring the uniformity of liquid distribution.
[0041] In the above technical solution, further, the liquid collecting device includes:
[0042] A flow guide hopper is installed above the liquid receiving hopper and is provided with a flow guide hole corresponding to the liquid receiving hopper;
[0043] A guide tube, which is installed on the inner wall of the guide hole;
[0044] The drainage component is installed on the diversion bucket and is used to drain the liquid into the diversion bucket.
[0045] In the present technical solution, the guide bucket is used to guide the liquid flowing down from the drainage component to the guide hole, and the setting of the guide tube can eliminate the horizontal flow of the liquid caused by the guide bucket, so that the liquid is twisted at the guide hole to form a vertical downward flow, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the liquid receiving bucket and preventing the liquid from splashing out of the liquid receiving bucket.
[0046] In the above technical solution, further, the drainage component includes:
[0047] Drainage buckets, there are multiple drainage buckets, which are installed on the diversion buckets at equal intervals and are provided with drainage holes corresponding to the diversion buckets;
[0048] A drainage tube, one end of which is connected to the inner wall of the drainage hole and the other end of which extends into the diversion bucket;
[0049] Drainage inclined plates, there are multiple drainage inclined plates, one end of which is respectively connected to multiple drainage buckets, and the other end extends to the top of the adjacent drainage bucket to form a drainage folded plate;
[0050] Wherein, a gas phase channel is formed between two adjacent drainage inclined plates.
[0051] In the present technical solution, the refluxed liquid is guided into the drainage bucket through a plurality of drainage inclined plates, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the drainage bucket through the drainage hole, and the drainage tube can eliminate the horizontal flow of the liquid caused by the drainage bucket, prompting the liquid to twist at the drainage hole to form a vertical downward flow, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the drainage bucket and preventing the liquid from splashing out of the drainage bucket.
[0052] The present invention provides a distillation process of a packed tower distillation system based on a two-stage distributor, comprising the following steps:
[0053] S1: The evaporator heats and evaporates the material, so that it enters the bottom of the packed tower through the second gas outlet and the first gas inlet, and rises along the packed tower;
[0054] S2: Steam enters the condenser through the first gas outlet and the second gas inlet, and the valve between the second liquid outlet and the liquid inlet is closed, so that the liquid flowing out of the second liquid outlet of the condenser is completely refluxed to the liquid collecting device in the packed tower, and enters the two-stage distributor and the two-stage redistributor through the liquid collecting device;
[0055] At this time, the reflux liquid is large, and the second distribution pipe cannot discharge the liquid in time. The liquid in the distribution pipe overflows to the first distribution pipe through the second connecting pipe, thereby ensuring that the gas phase channel remains unchanged while increasing the liquid falling density, thereby promoting the exchange and mass transfer between the falling liquid and the rising steam;
[0056] S3: Detect the reflux liquid through the pressure valve. If it meets the requirements, open the valve between the second liquid outlet and the liquid inlet to let the liquid that meets the requirements flow into the storage tank, and return part of the liquid to the packing tower;
[0057] At this time, the reflux liquid is significantly reduced. When the second distribution pipe is drained in time, the liquid drops in the second connecting pipe, so that the liquid is distributed only through the first distribution pipe, and in the change of the reflux amount, the second distribution pipe is automatically controlled to participate in the liquid distribution.
[0058] S4: After the distillation is completed, close the valve between the second liquid outlet and the reflux port to allow the liquid to flow into the storage tank.
[0059] In the present technical scheme, when the liquid flow rate is small, only the second branch of the lower layer works, and the small hole structure ensures the uniformity of the distribution points. When the liquid flow rate increases, the second branch of the lower layer continues to work, and the liquid level in the second connecting pipe rises until it exceeds the first branch. The first branch and the second branch of the upper and lower layers are both working. At this time, the two layers of distribution points are sprayed evenly and the points are doubled, which greatly improves the distribution and redistribution effects. The distributor and the redistributor have large operational flexibility and have good performance under various types of operating conditions. They have wide applicability and can be applied to pressurized and normal pressure reduction conditions, large or small liquid-to-gas ratios, gas velocities in the tower, and liquid spray volumes. Moreover, since the structure of the distributor and the redistributor is gravity self-flowing, it is basically not affected by the pressure in the tower, and can be applied to various pressure conditions. The multi-layer structure forms a larger gas phase channel, which can be automatically adjusted under various relatively harsh gas-liquid conditions, and has a good distribution effect.
[0060] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0061] 1. Through the liquid collecting device, it is convenient to collect the refluxed liquid and guide it into the liquid receiving hopper, so that the first distribution pipe and the second distribution pipe can evenly distribute the liquid. When the reflux amount is small, only the second distribution pipe arranged at the lower layer is used for distribution. When the reflux amount is large, the liquid overflows to the first distribution pipe, and the first distribution pipe at the upper layer is started, so as to avoid liquid overflow and affect the uniformity of liquid distribution. The filter can block granular foreign matter and impurities to prevent clogging of small holes.
[0062] 2. By staggering the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe on the same longitudinal plane, and staggering the small holes on the first branch pipe and the small holes on the second branch pipe on the same horizontal plane, and the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe are respectively located at different levels, the uniform distribution of the liquid can be effectively improved without affecting the gas phase channel, and the distribution points are multiplied, thereby greatly improving the distribution effect;
[0063] 3. The guide hopper and multiple drainage inclined plates can guide the refluxed liquid. The guide tube and drainage tube can eliminate the horizontal flow of the liquid caused by the guide hopper and drainage hopper, and cause the liquid to twist at the guide hole and drainage hole to form a vertical downward flow, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the guide hopper and liquid receiving hopper, and preventing the liquid from splashing out of the guide hopper and liquid receiving hopper;
[0064] 4. The operation flexibility of the distributor and redistributor is large, and they have good performance under various types of operating conditions. They have wide applicability and can be applied to pressurized and normal reduced pressure conditions, large or small liquid-gas ratios, gas velocities in the tower, and liquid spray volumes. Moreover, since the structure of the distributor and redistributor is gravity self-flowing, they are basically not affected by the pressure in the tower and can be applied to various pressure conditions. The multi-layer structure forms a larger gas phase channel, which can be automatically adjusted under various relatively harsh gas-liquid conditions and has a better distribution effect.

[0126] Drainage bucket 1830, there are multiple drainage buckets 1830, and they are installed on the guide bucket 180 at equal intervals, and are provided with drainage holes 1831 corresponding to the guide bucket 180;
[0127] A drainage tube 1832, one end of which is connected to the inner wall of the drainage hole 1831, and the other end of which extends into the guide bucket 180;
[0128] Drainage inclined plates 1833, there are multiple drainage inclined plates 1833, one end of which is respectively connected to multiple drainage buckets 1830, and the other end extends to the top of the adjacent drainage bucket 1830 to form a drainage folding plate 1834;
[0129] Wherein, a gas phase channel is formed between two adjacent drainage inclined plates 1833;
[0130] At the same time, welding is preferably used between the drainage bucket 1830 and the guide bucket 180, the drainage tube 1832 and the drainage inclined plate 1833, and the inclination angles of the drainage inclined plate 1833 and the drainage folding plate 1834 are both 30°-60°.
[0131] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the refluxed liquid is guided into the drainage bucket 1830 through a plurality of drainage inclined plates 1833, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the diversion bucket 180 through the drainage hole 1831, and the drainage tube 1832 can eliminate the horizontal flow of the liquid caused by the drainage bucket 1830, causing the liquid to twist at the drainage hole 1831 to form a vertical downward flow, thereby facilitating the liquid to enter the diversion bucket 180 and preventing the liquid from splashing out of the diversion bucket 180.
[0132] Embodiment 10:
[0133] This embodiment provides a packed tower distillation system based on a two-stage distributor, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features, and also includes:
[0134] A float 190, which is installed at the connection between the second connecting pipe 25 and the second main pipe 240;
[0135] A first limiting rod 191, which is installed at the connection between the second main pipe 240 and the second connecting pipe 25 and is used to limit the horizontal direction of the float 190;
[0136] A second limiting rod 192, which is installed on the inner wall of the second connecting pipe 25 and is used to limit the float 190 in the vertical direction;
[0137] Among them, the diameter of the float 190 is preferably smaller than the diameter of the second connecting pipe 25, and when not working, the gap area at the connection between the surface of the float 190 and the second connecting pipe 25 and the second main pipe 240 is not less than the cross-sectional area of the second connecting pipe 25, and at the same time, the buoyancy of the float 190 is greater than the gravity of the liquid on the float 190 when the second connecting pipe 25 is filled.
[0138] It can be seen from the present embodiment that by setting the float 190, when the reflux volume is large, the first branch pipe 221 cannot drain the liquid in time, thereby causing the water level in the second main pipe 240 to rise, thereby pushing the float 190 to rise. Due to the setting of the first limit rod 191, the float 190 enters from the bottom end of the second connecting pipe 25, and the liquid channel discharged from the second connecting pipe 25 into the second main pipe 240 becomes smaller, so that the speed at which the liquid enters the top end of the second connecting pipe 25 is greater than the speed at which the liquid flows out of the bottom end of the second connecting pipe 25, thereby accelerating the filling of the space above the float 190 in the second connecting pipe 25, so that when the second main pipe 240 is not filled, the water level can rise to the first main pipe 220, thereby accelerating the start-up of the first distribution pipe 22, shortening the adjustment switching time between the single-stage distribution and the two-stage distribution of the distributor and the redistributor, and improving work efficiency.
[0139] Embodiment 11:
[0140] This embodiment provides a distillation process of a packed tower distillation system based on a two-stage distributor, comprising the following steps:
[0141] S1: The evaporator 8 heats and evaporates the material, so that the material enters the bottom of the packed tower 1 through the second gas outlet 10 and the first gas inlet 6, and rises along the packed tower 1;
[0142] S2: The steam enters the condenser 11 through the first gas outlet 4 and the second gas inlet 12, and the valve 16 between the second liquid outlet 13 and the liquid inlet 15 is closed, so that the liquid flowing out of the second liquid outlet 13 of the condenser 11 is completely refluxed to the liquid collecting device 18 in the packed tower 1, and enters the two-stage distributor 2 and the two-stage redistributor 3 through the liquid collecting device 18;
[0143] At this time, the reflux liquid is large, and the second distribution pipe 24 cannot discharge the liquid in time. The liquid in the distribution pipe overflows to the first distribution pipe 22 through the second connecting pipe 25, thereby ensuring that the gas phase channel remains unchanged and increasing the liquid falling density, thereby promoting the exchange and mass transfer between the falling liquid and the rising steam.
[0144] S3: Detect the reflux liquid through the pressure valve, and if it meets the requirements, open the valve 16 between the second liquid outlet 13 and the liquid inlet 15 to let the liquid that meets the requirements flow into the storage tank 14, and return part of the liquid to the packed tower 1;
[0145] At this time, the reflux liquid is significantly reduced. When the second distribution pipe 24 is discharged in time, the liquid drops in the second connecting pipe 25, so that the liquid is distributed only through the first distribution pipe 22, and in the change of the reflux amount, the second distribution pipe 24 is automatically controlled to participate in the liquid distribution.
[0146] S4: After the distillation is completed, the valve 16 between the second liquid outlet 13 and the reflux port 5 is closed, so that the liquid completely flows into the storage tank 14 .
[0147] It can be seen from the present embodiment that when the liquid flow rate is relatively small, only the second branch pipe 241 of the lower layer works, and the small hole 26 structure ensures the uniformity of the distribution points. When the liquid flow rate increases, the second branch pipe 241 of the lower layer continues to work, and the liquid level in the second connecting pipe 25 rises until it exceeds the first branch pipe 221. The first branch pipe 221 and the second branch pipe 241 of the upper and lower layers both work. At this time, the two layers of distribution points are sprayed evenly and the points are doubled, which greatly improves the distribution and redistribution effects. The distributor and the redistributor have large operational flexibility and have good performance under various types of operating conditions. They have wide applicability and can be applied to pressurized and normal pressure reduction conditions, large or small liquid-to-gas ratios, gas velocities in the tower, and liquid spraying volumes. Moreover, since the structure of the distributor and the redistributor is gravity self-flowing, it is basically not affected by the pressure in the tower, and can be applied to various pressure conditions. The multi-layer structure forms a larger gas phase channel, which can be automatically adjusted under various relatively harsh gas-liquid conditions, and has a good distribution effect.
[0148] The embodiments of the present application are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present application is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation methods. The above-mentioned specific implementation methods are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Under the guidance of the present application, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the purpose of the present application and the scope of protection of the claims, all of which are within the protection of the present application.
