Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas processing technology, and more particularly to oil and gas processing equipment and its operating methods. Background Technology
[0002] Oil sludge is treated using thermal desorption and pyrolysis technology, which generates oil and gas. In order to recover and reuse the oil and gas, it is usually necessary to use condensation equipment to condense the oil and gas to a certain temperature so that the oil vapor in the oil and gas can eventually condense into liquid oil.
[0003] There are various methods for condensing oil and gas. One such method, according to the invention patent "A Spray Cooling System for Oil and Gas Condensation CN105219421A," involves spraying cold water onto the outside of the oil and gas pipeline to condense high-temperature oil and gas. High-temperature oil and gas typically travel at high speeds within pipelines, and the limited heat transfer area of the pipelines results in poor heat exchange between the oil and gas and the cold water, affecting oil and gas condensation. Furthermore, the indirect heat exchange between the cold water and the high-temperature oil and gas creates a temperature difference, which not only reduces the condensation effect but also decreases the utilization rate of the cold water's cooling capacity, causing unnecessary loss of cooling energy.
[0004] Furthermore, to improve the condensation efficiency of oil and gas, existing processing equipment typically performs multi-stage condensation. Cooling water or air is often used as the cooling medium, and the oil and gas to be condensed needs to exchange heat with at least two streams of cooling water or air to ultimately condense into oil and non-condensable gases. Clearly, this process requires the introduction of large amounts of cooling water or air, resulting in significant wastewater or waste gas emissions, increasing the burden of wastewater or waste gas treatment and substantially raising the operating costs of the equipment. Summary of the Invention
[0005] One advantage of this invention is that it provides an oil and gas treatment device and its working method. This invention utilizes oil-containing liquid to directly exchange heat with the oil and gas to be condensed, which effectively improves the condensation effect of the oil and gas to be condensed compared with indirect heat exchange.
[0006] One advantage of this invention is that it provides an oil and gas treatment device and its operating method. This invention can perform two-stage condensation of the oil and gas to be condensed. The cooling oil and water separated from the oil and gas to be condensed after the second condensation are cooled by heat exchange with a cooling fluid and used as the cooling medium for the cooling oil separated from the oil and gas to be condensed after the first condensation. Furthermore, the cooling oil and cooling oil and water that have been cooled by heat exchange are used as the cooling medium for the two-stage condensation, so that the cooling oil and cooling oil and water after the oil and gas to be condensed can be utilized, thereby improving the utilization rate of the oil and gas to be condensed, reducing the introduction of external cooling fluid, and reducing the overall operating cost.

The cooling oil sprayed by the spray element is stored in the processing chamber. The oil gas is condensed into a gaseous substance that has been condensed in the first stage and is guided to the inlet of another condensing device through the outlet. At this time, the corresponding condensing device performs a second-stage condensation operation.
[0022] After primary condensation, the oil and gas are directed to the processing chamber through the inlet of the condensation device that performs secondary condensation.

The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
[0031] Those skilled in the art should understand that, in the disclosure of this invention, the terms "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limiting this invention.
[0032] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number.
[0033] refer to Figures 1 to 3 An oil and gas processing device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below, the oil and gas processing device including at least one condensation device 100.
[0034] The condensation device 100 includes a processing box 110, which has a processing chamber 1101, an inlet 1102, and an outlet 1103. The inlet 1102 and the outlet 1103 are both located at the high end of the processing box 110 and are both connected to the processing chamber 1101. The inlet 1102 is used to introduce the oil and gas to be condensed into the processing chamber 1101, and the outlet 1103 is used to discharge the gaseous substances separated after the oil and gas to be condensed in the processing chamber 1101.
[0035] refer to Figure 3 The condensation device 100 further includes a spray element 120, which has a spray channel 1201, a spray nozzle 1202, and a spray inlet 1203. Both the spray nozzle 1202 and the spray inlet 1203 communicate with the spray channel 1201. The spray inlet 1203 is used to introduce oil-containing liquid into the spray channel 1201. The spray element 120 is installed in the processing chamber 110, with one end of the spray element 120 forming the spray nozzle 1202 located inside the processing chamber 110. The spray element 120 can spray oil-containing liquid to contact and cool the oil vapor to be condensed, which is guided from the inlet 1102 to the processing chamber 1101, thereby cooling the oil vapor to be condensed.
[0036] It is worth noting that the oil-containing liquid sprayed by the spray element 120 can be guided to the processing chamber 1101 and collected within it. After being cooled by the oil-containing liquid sprayed by the spray element 120, the condensed oil vapor can be sprayed onto the oil-containing liquid stored in the processing chamber 1101 for further cooling. Compared to indirect heat exchange, this effectively improves the condensation effect on the condensed oil vapor. Furthermore, the condensed oil vapor comes into direct contact with both the oil-containing liquid sprayed by the spray element 120 and the oil-containing liquid stored in the processing chamber 1101. The oil-containing liquid carries away dust from the oil vapor, achieving a dust removal effect. This effectively prevents excessive dust contamination in the gaseous substances separated after condensation, which could clog the pipeline and affect gaseous substance transport.
[0037] refer to Figures 2 to 3 The processing chamber 110 includes a housing 111 and an inlet 112. A processing chamber 1101 is formed in the housing 111. The inlet 112 has an inlet channel 11201, and an inlet 1102 is formed in the inlet 112 and communicates with the inlet channel 11201. The inlet 112 is mounted on the top of the processing chamber 110, and one end of the inlet channel 11201, away from the inlet 1102, communicates with the processing chamber 1101. The inlet channel 11201 guides the oil and gas to be condensed through the inlet 1102 into the processing chamber 1101. The spray member 120 partially extends into the inlet channel 11201 with the spray nozzle 1202 pointing towards the oil and gas to be condensed, guiding it along the inlet channel 11201 into the processing chamber 1101.
[0038] It is worth mentioning that the oily liquid sprayed by the sprayer 120 can flow along the inner wall of the inlet channel 11201 to guide the processing chamber 1101. During this process, an oil film is formed on part of the inner wall of the inlet channel 11201 to prevent the high-temperature oil gas to be condensed from directly contacting the inner wall and damaging the inlet 112. This protects the inlet 112 and allows it to exchange heat with the oil gas to be condensed again using the oil film to further cool the oil gas to be condensed.
[0039] refer to Figures 2 to 3Preferably, the inlet member 112 has a guide portion 1121. Taking the direction of introducing the oil and gas to be condensed into the housing 111 along the inlet member 112 as a reference, the cross-sectional dimension of the guide channel 11201 of the guide portion 1121 near the inlet port 1102 gradually decreases, and the cross-sectional dimension of the guide channel 11201 of the guide portion 1121 near the processing chamber 1101 gradually increases. When the oil and gas to be condensed flows through the inlet port 1102 and passes through the guide channel 11201 located in the guide portion 1121, a negative pressure is generated at the end of the guide channel 11201 of the guide portion 1121 away from the inlet port 1102 to guide the flow of the oil and gas to be condensed, increase the flow velocity of the oil and gas to be condensed, reduce the load on the device that guides the oil and gas to be condensed into the inlet port 1102, and improve the cooling efficiency of the oil and gas to be condensed.
[0040] The processing chamber 110 further includes a discharge member 113, which has a discharge channel 11301. A discharge port 1103 is formed in the discharge member 113 and communicates with the discharge channel 11301. The discharge member 113 is installed on the top of the chamber 111, and the discharge port 1103 communicates with the processing chamber 1101 through the discharge channel 11301. The gaseous substances separated from the condensed oil and gas in the processing chamber 1101 can be guided through the discharge channel 11301 to the discharge port 1103 for discharge.
[0041] refer to Figure 3 Preferably, the outlet channel 11301 includes a first portion 113011 and a second portion 113012, and the outlet member 113 includes a guide portion 1131 and a connecting portion 1132. The first portion 113011 is formed in the guide portion 1131, the second portion 113012 is formed in the connecting portion 1132, and the outlet 1103 is formed in the connecting portion 1132 and communicates with the second portion 113012. The guide portion 1131 is installed in the housing 111, and the first portion 113011 communicates with the processing chamber 1101 and the second portion 113012. The condensed oil and gas in the processing chamber 1101 is guided to the second portion 113012 through the first portion 113011.
[0042] refer to Figure 4Preferably, with reference to the direction perpendicular to the direction from the first part 113011 to the second part 113012 after condensation treatment, the cross-sections of both the first part 113011 and the second part 113012 are circular. The outlet 113 has a cross-section along the extension direction from the first part 113011 to the second part 113012, with one side wall of the first part 113011 tangent to the cross-section of the second part 113012. The first part 113011 can guide the condensed oil and gas to rotate along the inner wall of the second part 113012 towards the outlet 1103. During this process, the gaseous substances separated after condensation of the oil and gas are discharged from the outlet 1103, and the oily liquid separated after condensation adheres to the inner wall of the second part 113012, thus achieving gas-liquid separation.
[0043] refer to Figure 3 The condensation device 100 further includes at least one blocking member 130. The blocking member 130 is installed on the inner wall of the second part 113012, and a gap 1001 is formed between the blocking member 130 and a portion of the inner wall of the second part 113012. The blocking member 130 is positioned on the flow path of the condensed oil and gas to be condensed flowing through the second part 113012 and being guided to the outlet 1103. During the process of the condensed oil and gas in the second part 113012 being guided to the outlet 1103, the condensed oil and gas impacts the blocking member 130, which intercepts dust and oily liquid separated after the condensed oil and gas. At the same time, the gaseous substances separated after the condensed oil and gas pass through the gap 1001 and are guided to the outlet 1103, so as to avoid a large amount of oily liquid being discharged with the gaseous substances, which would increase the burden of subsequent processing and greatly reduce the possibility of subsequent pipeline blockage.
[0044] Preferably, multiple blocking members 130 are provided, with at least two blocking members 130 arranged opposite each other and spaced at a predetermined height. During the process of the condensed oil and gas flowing through the second part 113012 and being guided to the outlet 1103, the condensed oil and gas collide with multiple blocking members 130 successively to achieve multiple dust removal and intercept the oil-containing liquid separated after the condensed oil and gas, thereby improving the dust removal and liquid removal effects.
[0045] Preferably, the blocking member 130 extends obliquely towards the center from one side wall of the second portion 113012 to guide the oily liquid intercepted by the blocking member 130 to be concentrated and directed to the lower end of the blocking member 130 for collection of the oily liquid.
[0046] refer to Figure 3 The lower end of the connecting portion 1132 forms a liquid collection port 113201 communicating with the second portion 113012. The connecting portion 1132 is installed on the housing 111, and the lower end of the connecting portion 1132 extends into the processing chamber 1101. The second portion 113012 communicates with the processing chamber 1101 through the liquid collection port 113201. The oily liquid in the second portion 113012 can be guided to the processing chamber 1101 through the liquid collection port 113201 and collected in the processing chamber 1101.
[0047] It is worth mentioning that the height of the liquid collection port 113201 is lower than the liquid level of the oil-containing liquid stored in the processing chamber 1101, thereby liquid-sealing the liquid collection port 113201 to prevent the oil-gas to be condensed after being condensed in the processing chamber 1101 from entering the second part 113012 through the liquid collection port 113201. In this way, the oil-gas to be condensed after being condensed in the processing chamber 1101 can only enter the second part 113012 through the first part 113011. Utilizing the cooperation of the guide part 1131 and the connecting part 1132, and based on the blocking member 130 intercepting the oil-containing liquid, the separation effect of gaseous substances and oil-containing liquid is improved.
[0048] refer to Figure 3 The condensation device 100 further includes a demister 140, which is installed on the second part 113012 and is located in the direction in which the gaseous substances separated after the oil and gas to be condensed flow through the obstruction member 130 and are guided to the outlet 1103. The demister 140 can further separate the gaseous substances and oily liquid based on the obstruction member 130, maximizing the recovery of oily liquid.
[0049] It is worth mentioning that during the process of the oil and gas to be condensed being cooled and flushed by the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101 and then guided to the outlet 1103 through the outlet channel 11301, the blocking member 130 can intercept the dust in the oil and gas to be condensed after condensation treatment for further dust removal. This effectively prevents the oil and gas to be condensed from being blocked by dust when it is processed by the demister 140. At the same time, it can also prevent the gaseous material discharged from the outlet 1103 from being transported due to the large amount of dust mixed in with the gaseous material, which would cause the transport pipeline to be blocked and affect the subsequent processing progress.
[0050] refer to Figure 3The condensation device 100 further includes an air distribution component 150, which is installed in the inlet channel 11201. The air distribution component 150 has multiple vent holes 1501 in the direction in which the oil and gas to be condensed enters the inlet channel 11201 through the inlet port 1102. The oil and gas to be condensed through the inlet port 1102 can be dispersed by the air distribution component 150 through the vent holes 1501, so that the dispersed oil and gas to be condensed can come into uniform contact with the oil-containing liquid sprayed by the spray component 120, reducing the deviation of the oil and gas to be condensed and effectively avoiding the situation where the oil and gas to be condensed is too concentrated, resulting in poor cooling effect.
[0051] Preferably, the air distribution component 150 is located on the side of the spray nozzle 1202 of the spray component 120 near the inlet 1102. The air distribution component 150 can disperse the oil-containing liquid to be condensed before it exchanges heat with the oil-containing liquid sprayed by the spray component 120, so that the dispersed oil-containing liquid to be condensed can exchange heat with the oil-containing liquid efficiently.
[0052] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The housing 111 also has a discharge port 11101 communicating with the processing chamber 1101, the discharge port 11101 being used to discharge the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101.
[0053] refer to Figures 2 to 3 The housing 111 also has a drain port 11102 that communicates with the processing chamber 1101. The drain port 11102 is located at the lower end of the housing 111 and is used to discharge dirt from the oily liquid in the processing chamber 1101.
[0054] Preferably, the bottom wall of the housing 111 is inclined, and the drain port 11102 is located at the lower end of the bottom wall of the housing 111, so that the dirt in the oily liquid in the processing chamber 1101 can settle on the bottom wall of the housing 111 and collect along the bottom wall at the lower end of the bottom wall, so that the dirt can be discharged from the drain port 11102.
[0055] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5It is worth mentioning that two condensing devices 100 are provided. The outlet 1103 of one condensing device 100 is connected to the inlet 1102 of the other condensing device 100 via a pipeline, so that the oil and gas to be condensed can undergo two-stage condensation. The inlet 1102 of one condensing device 100 is introduced with the oil and gas to be condensed. At this time, the corresponding condensing device 100 performs a first-stage condensation operation, and the corresponding spray element 120 sprays out an oil-containing liquid to be cooled to cool the oil and gas. The oil and gas condenses in the corresponding condensing device 100 into cooling oil and the gaseous substance of the first-stage condensed oil and gas. The cooling oil is stored in the processing chamber 1101, and the first-stage condensed oil and gas is discharged through the outlet 1103; the other... The inlet 1102 of the condensing device 100 is used to introduce oil gas to be condensed after primary condensation. At this time, the corresponding condensing device 100 performs secondary condensation operation. The corresponding spray element 120 sprays out oil-containing liquid to be used as cooling oil-water to cool the oil gas after primary condensation. The oil gas after primary condensation is condensed in the condensing device 100 into cooling oil-water and gaseous substances to be used as non-condensable gases. The cooling oil-water is stored in the processing chamber 1101, and the non-condensable gases are discharged through the outlet 1103.
[0056] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The oil and gas treatment equipment includes a heat exchange component 200, which includes a first heat exchanger 210. The first heat exchanger 210 has a first inlet 2101 and a first outlet 2102. The first inlet 2101 is connected via a pipeline to the outlet 11101 of the condensing device 100 that performs the first-stage condensation operation. The first outlet 2102 is connected via a pipeline to the corresponding spray inlet 1203 of the condensing device 100. The first heat exchanger 210 can exchange heat with the cooling oil introduced through the first inlet 2101 to cool it down and guide the cooled cooling oil to the corresponding spray element 120, thereby providing a cold source for cooling the oil and gas passing through the inlet 1102, so that the cooling oil separated after the oil and gas condenses can be recycled as a cooling medium.
[0057] The first heat exchanger 210 further has a first inlet 2103 and a first outlet 2104. The first inlet 2103 is used to introduce cooling oil and water, thereby providing a cold source for the first heat exchanger 210 to exchange heat with the cooling oil introduced by the first inlet 2101. The first outlet 2104 is used to discharge the cooling oil and water that have been heated after heat exchange by the first heat exchanger 210.
[0058] The heat exchange assembly 200 further includes a second heat exchanger 220, which has a second inlet 2201 and a second outlet 2202. The second inlet 2201 is connected via a pipeline to the outlet 11101 of the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation, and the second outlet 2202 is connected via a pipeline to the corresponding spray inlet 1203 of the condensing device 100. The second heat exchanger 220 can exchange heat with the cooling oil and water introduced through the second inlet 2201 to cool it down and guide the cooled cooling oil and water to the corresponding spray element 120, thereby providing a cold source for cooling the oil and gas after the first stage of condensation through the inlet 1102, so that the cooling oil and water separated after the first stage of condensation can be recycled as a cooling medium.
[0059] The second heat exchanger 220 further includes a second inlet 2203 and a second outlet 2204. The second inlet 2203 is used to introduce a cooling fluid, such as cooling water or air, thereby providing a cold source for the second heat exchanger 220 to exchange heat between the cooling oil and water introduced through the second inlet 2201 and the cooling fluid introduced through the second inlet 2203. The second heat exchanger 220 is capable of exchanging heat between the cooling oil and water introduced through the second inlet 2201 and the cooling fluid introduced through the second inlet 2203. The second outlet 2204 is used to discharge the cooling fluid that has been heated after heat exchange by the second heat exchanger 220.
[0060] It is worth mentioning that the second outlet 2202 is connected to the first inlet 2103 via a pipeline, so that the second heat exchanger 220 can provide cooled oil and water to the first heat exchanger 210, thereby providing a cold source for the first heat exchanger 210 to exchange heat with the cooling oil discharged from the processing chamber 1101 of the condensing device 100 that performs the first-stage condensation operation.
[0061] In this way, the oil and gas treatment equipment can perform two-stage condensation of the oil and gas to be condensed. The cooling oil and water separated from the oil and gas to be condensed after the second condensation are cooled by exchanging heat with the cooling fluid and used as the cooling medium for the cooling oil separated from the oil and gas to be condensed after the first condensation. Furthermore, the cooling oil and cooling oil and water that have been cooled by heat exchange are used as the cooling medium for the two-stage condensation, so that the cooling oil and cooling oil and water after the oil and gas to be condensed can be utilized, thereby improving the utilization rate of the oil and gas to be condensed, reducing the introduction of external cooling fluid, and reducing the overall operating cost.
[0062] refer to Figures 1 to 3It is worth mentioning that the housing 111 also has a replenishment port 11103 communicating with the processing chamber 1101. The replenishment port 11103 is used to replenish the processing chamber 1101 with oil-containing liquid. The first outlet 2104 is connected to the replenishment port 11103 of the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation via a pipeline. The first heat exchanger 210 can guide the heated cooling oil-water to the corresponding processing chamber 1101, thereby replenishing the processing chamber 1101 of the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation with cooling oil-water. This allows the cooling oil-water discharged from the first heat exchanger 210 to be subsequently heated by the second heat exchanger 220, serving as the cooling medium for both the first heat exchanger 210 and the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation, thus enabling the cooling oil-water to be recycled.
[0063] refer to Figures 2 to 3 The housing 111 has a thermometer interface 11104 that communicates with the processing chamber 1101. The thermometer interface 11104 allows a thermometer to be inserted into and extended into the oily liquid in the processing chamber 1101 so that the operator can monitor the temperature of the oily liquid in the processing chamber 1101.
[0064] Preferably, a first valve is installed on the pipeline connected to the second inlet 2203 of the second heat exchanger 220. When the temperature of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101 exceeds a predetermined temperature value as indicated by the thermometer, the flow rate of the cooling fluid directed to the second inlet 2203 is increased by controlling the first valve, so that the temperature of the cooling oil and water cooled after being heated by the second heat exchanger 220 is greatly reduced, thereby improving the two-stage condensation effect.
[0065] As a deformable feature, a second valve is installed on the pipeline connected to the inlet 1102, so that when the thermometer shows that the temperature of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101 exceeds a predetermined temperature value, the flow rate of the oil-containing gas to be condensed directed to the inlet 1102 is reduced by controlling the second valve, thereby reducing the heat exchange burden of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101.
[0066] refer to Figures 2 to 3The housing 111 also has at least one level gauge interface 11105 communicating with the processing chamber 1101. A level gauge is installed at the level gauge interface 11105 of the housing 111 to allow operators to monitor the level of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101. A third valve is installed on the pipeline communicating with the inlet 1102. When the level gauge indicates that the level of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101 is lower than a predetermined value, the third valve is controlled to reduce the flow rate of the condensable oil vapor directed to the inlet 1102. This is to prevent the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101 from being too low while the flow rate of the condensable oil vapor is too high, which would result in the condensable oil vapor not being effectively cooled.
[0067] refer to Figures 2 to 3 A pressure measuring port 1104 is formed at the high end of the processing tank 110, and the height of the pressure measuring port 1104 is higher than the liquid level of the oil-containing liquid in the processing chamber 1101. The pressure measuring port 1104 is connected to any one of the processing chamber 1101, the inlet channel 11201, and the outlet channel 11301. A pressure transmitter is installed at the pressure measuring port 1104 of the processing tank 110 so that the operator can monitor the pressure changes in the processing tank 110 and suspend the equipment when the pressure in the processing tank 110 exceeds a predetermined value to prevent an explosion.
[0068] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The oil and gas processing equipment further includes a circulation pump assembly 300, which includes a first circulation pump 310. The first circulation pump 310 is installed on the pipeline between the outlet 11101 and the first inlet 2101 of the condensing device 100, which performs the first-stage condensation operation. The first circulation pump 310 can guide the cooling oil in the corresponding processing chamber 1101 to the first heat exchanger 210.
[0069] The circulating pump assembly 300 further includes a second circulating pump 320, which is installed on the pipeline between the outlet 11101 and the second inlet 2201 of the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation. The second circulating pump 320 can guide the cooling oil and water in the corresponding processing chamber 1101 to the second heat exchanger 220.
[0070] refer to Figure 1 The oil and gas processing equipment further includes an oil storage tank 400, which has an oil inlet 4001. The first outlet 2102 is connected to the oil inlet 4001 via a pipeline. A portion of the cooling oil that has cooled down after heat exchange in the first heat exchanger 210 is directed to the oil storage tank 400 for recovery.
[0071] refer to Figure 1The oil and gas treatment equipment further includes an oil-water separator 500, which has a liquid inlet 5001 and an oil outlet 5002. The liquid inlet 5001 is connected to the second outlet 2202 via a pipeline, and the oil outlet 5002 is connected to the oil inlet 4001 via a pipeline. The oil-water separator 500 is configured to separate the cooling oil and water introduced through the liquid inlet 5001 to separate cooling oil and wastewater. The oil outlet 5002 is used to guide the cooling oil to the oil inlet 4001 for recovery.
[0072] It is worth mentioning that during the process of treating the condensed oil and gas in the oil and gas treatment equipment, the greater the degree of temperature reduction of the cooling oil and water discharged from the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation after heat exchange in the second heat exchanger 220, the greater the degree of temperature reduction of the cooling oil discharged from the condensing device 100 performing the primary condensation operation after heat exchange in the first heat exchanger 210. Since the cooling oil and water heated up after heat exchange in the first heat exchanger 210 can be introduced into the replenishment port 11103 of the condensing device 100 performing the secondary condensation operation, the temperature of the two-stage condensation can be controlled by adjusting the flow rate of the cooling fluid in the first inlet 2103 of the second heat exchanger 220. In this way, by controlling the temperature of the two-stage condensation, the amount of cooling oil separated from the oil and gas after the first-stage condensation is increased, thereby increasing the amount of cooling oil recovered in the first-stage condensation process, reducing the load on the subsequent oil-water separator 500, lowering the specification requirements of the oil-water separator 500, saving processing costs, reducing the impact of the operating error of the oil-water separator 500 on the overall quality of the recovered oil, and improving the quality of the recovered oil.
[0073] refer to Figure 1 The oil and gas treatment equipment further includes a wastewater treatment device 600, which has an inlet 6001. The oil-water separator 500 also has an outlet 5003, which is connected to the inlet 6001 via a pipeline. The wastewater treatment device 600 is used to treat the wastewater separated from the cooling oil by the oil-water separator 500.
[0074] refer to Figure 1 The oil and gas processing equipment includes a non-condensable gas processing device 700, which has an inlet 7001. The outlet 1103 of the condensing device 100, which performs a two-stage condensation operation, is connected to the inlet 7001 via a pipeline. The non-condensable gas processing device 700 is used to process the non-condensable gas separated after condensation by the condensing device 100 during the two-stage condensation operation.
