Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for the resource utilization of conversion condensate. Background Technology

[0002] Coal gasification and gas shift are important technological pathways for syngas production and the starting point of the coal chemical industry. After these two processes, the gas exiting the shift furnace contains a large amount of water vapor and various impurities. After multi-stage condensation, a large amount of condensate (referred to as "shift condensate") is generated. Its water quality is characterized by high concentrations of pollutants such as NH3, H2S, and CO2, making it difficult to treat.

[0003] Previously, environmental protection strategies have focused on achieving the complete degradation of pollutants. However, the challenge in treating conversion condensate lies in the high concentration of sulfur (S). 2- The wastewater exhibits strong toxicity to microorganisms, making direct biological treatment impossible; pretreatment is necessary. The traditional pretreatment method is a single-tower stripping process, where steam separates H2S from the water, and a portion of the H2S, along with some NH3 waste gas, is incinerated in a flare; the remaining NH3 dissolves in the condensate at the top of the tower, which then enters the wastewater treatment plant's biological treatment system; the bottom liquid is returned to the gasification unit for reuse. However, this pretreatment method commonly suffers from the following problems during operation:

[0004] ① The consumption of steam and circulating cooling water is large (water has a high latent heat of phase change), resulting in high energy consumption;

[0005] ② The separation effect is limited, and flare incineration and biological treatment methods are still needed to remove pollutants, which is a cumbersome and complicated process;

[0006] ③ It generates secondary pollution. The incineration exhaust gas contains a large amount of sulfur dioxide, which requires further desulfurization processes.

[0007] ④ The concentration and total amount of NH3-N entering the biochemical system are high, and the treatment load is high, requiring an additional large amount of easily degradable carbon source to meet the denitrification requirements;

[0008] ⑤ The stripping tower top is severely corroded and clogged (ammonium bicarbonate crystals precipitate), requiring frequent shutdowns for cleaning, maintenance, and replacement.

[0009] ⑥ The treatment effect was not ideal; more than 300 mg / L of NH3 remained in the wastewater after stripping.

[0010] In recent years, single-tower side-stream pressurized stripping and double-tower stripping technologies have been developed and successfully applied to the treatment of shift converter condensates. These methods are improvements upon traditional single-tower stripping, utilizing the fact that CO2 and H2S are more volatile than NH3 to achieve stepwise separation of different components. Although this method offers good separation efficiency and allows for the recovery of some pollutants, it requires more energy, and the price of the recovered products cannot compensate for the additional operating costs.

[0011] Currently, most shift conversion condensate treatment technologies are optimizations and improvements based on the stripping principle. For example, Chinese patent CN210521820U discloses a high-efficiency and energy-saving shift conversion condensate stripping and ammonia recovery system, which solves the environmental pollution, resource waste, and ammonia salt crystallization problems caused by combustion treatment of acidic gas at the top of the stripping tower. However, this doubles the equipment investment and increases operating costs. Patent CN115259259B discloses a shift conversion condensate treatment system and process, which solves the water balance and ammonia balance problems of boiler desulfurization systems, improves the quality of ammonium sulfate, and turns shift conversion condensate into a valuable resource after purification. However, the three parallel shift conversion condensate systems it provides result in complex equipment and process flows.

[0012] Therefore, there is an urgent need to change the traditional mindset and seek a disposal and resource reuse technology that is efficient and economically beneficial. Summary of the Invention

[0013] This invention addresses the shortcomings of traditional stripping processes, which transfer pollutants to the gas phase, resulting in approximately 30-50% of NH3 and H2S being incinerated. These processes are characterized by high energy consumption, complex procedures, secondary pollution, and low efficiency. This invention provides a method for the resource utilization of shift conversion condensate. This invention is applicable to shift conversion condensate treatment processes of varying scales and features the following characteristics: ① Waste material recovery rate exceeding 99.0%, high product added value, and good economic benefits; ② Simple process flow, high treatment efficiency, and high resource utilization rate; ③ Avoidance of secondary pollution; ④ Guarantee of long-term continuous and stable operation of the membrane system, ensuring high technical reliability; ⑤ Avoidance of water phase change, resulting in low energy consumption and energy saving and emission reduction; ⑥ Assistance to coal chemical enterprises in achieving in-plant material self-circulation and generating by-products with good economic benefits.

[0014] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

The amount added can be determined by those skilled in the art according to their needs.

[0030] In some embodiments, in step a, the concentration of urea is 2 to 5 mol / L, for example 3 mol / L.

[0046] In some embodiments, the calcination time in step c is 2-6 hours, for example, 5 hours.

[0047] In some embodiments, in step S1, the decarbonization process includes blowing air into the mixture of the shift condensate and sulfuric acid; wherein the sulfuric acid can be sulfuric acid of any concentration.

[0048] In this process, air is blown into the mixture to remove dissolved carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. This air-blowing method can improve treatment efficiency and reduce the content of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide in the shift condensate.

[0049] In some embodiments, in step S1, the shift condensate comprises NH3, H2S, and CO2; the composition of the shift condensate is mainly composed of NH3, H2S, and CO2, with only trace amounts of F. - CN - The processing method and apparatus are not limited by the composition and content of the condensate.

[0050] In this invention, the purpose of decarbonation is to replace anions, converting carbonate and sulfide ions into sulfate ions, thereby generating carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, which then escape; the escaped hydrogen sulfide can be recovered by a sulfur recovery device.

[0160] Examples 6.1-6.6

[0161] This embodiment investigates the effect of the dosage of vanadium-intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite catalyst on the removal efficiency of sulfur ions. The same shift condensate as in Example 3.3 was used as the water sample in this embodiment.

[0162] In step S2, the amount of catalyst used accounts for 0.1% of the total mass of the conversion condensate, and the other operating steps and processes are the same as in Example 3.3.

[0163] In Examples 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, and 6.6, the amount of catalyst used accounts for 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 3.0%, and 5.0% of the total mass of the conversion condensate, respectively. All other conditions are the same as in Example 6.1.

[0164] Comparative Example 1

[0165] This comparative example used the same treatment method as in Example 6.1; however, no hydrotalcite catalyst was added in step S2. Otherwise, all other conditions were the same as in Example 6.1.

[0166] Example 2

[0167] This effective example demonstrates the sulfur ion treatment effect of Examples 6.1-6.6 and Comparative Example 1; the sulfur ion concentration in the effluent after the oxidation reaction was detected; the sulfur ion detection method was the current national standard iodometric method (HJ / T60-2000), and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0168] Table 2 shows the effect of catalyst dosage on the sulfur ion treatment effect in Examples 6.1-6.6 and Comparative Example 1.

[0173] Example 7

[0174] In this embodiment, the conversion condensate was taken from a coal chemical enterprise in Inner Mongolia, and approximately 20m³ of it was collected in the inlet tank. 3 The condensate concentration was changed, COD = 611 mg / L, and the water sample NH3-N = 4800 mg / L. 2- =236mg / L, alkalinity =18700mg / L;

[0175] This embodiment uses the processing system of Embodiment 1 and includes the following steps:

[0176] S1. In this embodiment, the shift condensate is pumped to the decarbonization tower 1, sulfuric acid is added (the molar ratio of sulfuric acid to the alkalinity of the shift condensate is 1.10) to control the pH to 4.0, and air is blown in to remove the generated carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide to obtain a crude ammonium sulfate dilute solution.

[0177] S2. The crude ammonium sulfate dilute solution is transported to oxidation reactor 2 and filtered by filter device 3 in the membrane filtration system to retain the vanadium intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite slurry prepared in Example 2 (catalyst dosage approximately 2.6%, % being the mass ratio of catalyst to total mass of shift condensate). Hydrogen peroxide is quantitatively added to the reactor (molar ratio of effective oxygen equivalent to sulfur ions = 4.5:1), and gas stirring is employed (stirring intensity 3.2 m). 3 / (m 2 After a reaction of 2.0 h, the effluent S 2- The concentration was 0.28 mg / L and the COD value was 34 mg / L. It was pumped into the membrane filtration system.

[0178] S3. Under operating pressure of 0.6 MPa, temperature of approximately 32℃, and surface flow velocity of 3.2 m / s, cross-flow filtration was performed using a stainless steel membrane (0.5 μm pore size). The catalyst slurry retained by the membrane was recycled to oxidation reactor 2. After 10 cycles of testing, the catalytic effect did not decrease, and the effluent S...2- The concentration is stable at ≤0.6 mg / L, and the COD value is ≤90 mg / L; the clear liquid permeating through the membrane enters the membrane concentration system. The concentration membrane is made of polyamide and operates at a pressure of 0.1-12 MPa and a temperature of approximately 25°C.

[0179] Based on NH3-N concentration, ammonium sulfate recovery rate = (N content in concentrate * flow rate of concentrate) / (N content in shift condensate * flow rate of shift condensate)

[0180] When the ammonium sulfate solution is concentrated to a mass concentration of about 18%, the concentration of NH3-N in the raw water, membrane permeate, and concentrate is detected and calculated, and the ammonium sulfate recovery rate reaches about 99.1%. The process water passing through the concentrated membrane is transported to the gasification section for recycling.

[0181] Based on sulfide ions, the sulfur recovery rate of the sulfur entering the plant's sulfur recovery unit after step S1 stripping is >98%; the oxidation reaction in step S2 achieves a recovery rate of over 99% for the remaining sulfur. Therefore, the overall sulfur recovery rate is also 98%.

[0182] Example 8

[0183] In this embodiment, the conversion condensate was taken from a coal chemical enterprise in Shaanxi Province, and approximately 10m³ of it was collected in the inlet tank. 3 The condensate was changed, with COD = 1864 mg / L, NH3-N = 3059 mg / L, and S... 2- =1760mg / L, alkalinity =12493mg / L.

[0184] This embodiment uses the processing system of Embodiment 1 and includes the following steps:

[0185] S1. In this embodiment, the shift condensate is pumped to the decarbonization tower 1, sulfuric acid is added (the molar ratio of sulfuric acid to the alkalinity of the shift condensate is 0.95) to control the pH to 5.0, and air is blown in to strip off the generated carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, and a crude ammonium sulfate dilute solution is obtained.

[0186] S2. The crude ammonium sulfate dilute solution is transported to oxidation reactor 2 and filtered by filter device 3 in the membrane filtration system to retain the vanadium intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite slurry prepared in Example 2 (catalyst dosage is approximately 4.7%, where % is the mass ratio of catalyst to total mass of conversion condensate). Hydrogen peroxide (molar ratio of effective oxygen equivalent to sulfur ions = 5.0:1) is quantitatively added to oxidation reactor 2 under mechanical stirring (stirring intensity is 10 W / m). 3 After a reaction of 4.0 h, the effluent S 2- The concentration was 0.74 mg / L and the COD value was 72 mg / L. It was pumped into the membrane filtration system.

[0187] S3. Under operating pressures of 0.2-1.0 MPa, temperatures of approximately 25°C, and surface flow rates of 2.4 m / s, cross-flow filtration was performed using a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (0.05 μm pore size). The catalyst slurry retained by the membrane was recycled back to the reactor. After 10 cycles of testing, the catalytic efficiency showed no decline, and the effluent S... 2- The concentration is stable at ≤1.0 mg / L, and the COD value is ≤100 mg / L; the supernatant permeating through the membrane enters the membrane concentration system. The concentration membrane operates at a pressure of 0.1-12 MPa and a temperature of approximately 25°C.

[0188] When the ammonium sulfate solution is concentrated to a mass concentration of about 17%, the concentration of NH3-N in the raw water, membrane permeate, and concentrate is detected and calculated, and the ammonium sulfate recovery rate reaches about 99.4%. The process water passing through the concentrated membrane is transported to the gasification section for recycling.

[0189] Example 3

[0190] The embodiments in this application do not use steam, and the total power consumption of the entire process is only 5-6 kWh / ton of water. With an electricity price of 0.6 yuan / kWh, the energy cost of treating one ton of shift condensate is only 3-4 yuan.

[0191] Comparative Example 2

[0192] This comparative example shows the operational results of Example 7 under different operating parameters.

[0193] Specifically, in step S2, no vanadium-intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite catalyst was added during the oxidation reaction; the molar ratio of effective oxygen equivalent to sulfur ions was 6.0, and the reaction time was extended to 3.0 h; all other operating conditions were the same as in Example 7.

[0194] Water Outflow S 2- The concentration was still 7.16 mg / L, with a strong H2S odor. This not only fails to ensure operational safety but also easily causes sulfide fouling in the downstream concentration membrane.

[0195] Comparative Example 3

[0196] This comparative example shows the operational results of Example 6.4 under different operating parameters.

[0197] Specifically, in step S2, the catalyst used in the oxidation reaction is a Ca-Mn composite catalyst formed by impregnation and calcination of calcium-based bentonite and potassium permanganate (not a vanadium-intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite catalyst); other operating conditions are the same as in Example 6.4.

[0198] When the catalyst dosage is increased from 1.0% to 5.0%, the effluent S 2- The concentration decreased from 9.45 mg / L to 2.08 mg / L, and the residual S2- The concentration remains high, and it is prone to sulfide fouling when it enters the membrane concentration system.

[0199] Comparative Example 4

[0200] This comparative example shows the operational results of Example 6.6 under different operating parameters.

[0201] Specifically, in step S2, the catalyst used in the oxidation reaction is a common Mg-Al hydrotalcite catalyst (not a vanadium-intercalated Ca-Mn-Fe ternary hydrotalcite catalyst).

[0202] When the catalyst dosage is 5.0%, the effluent S 2- At a concentration of 10.85 mg / L, it did not exhibit significant catalytic activity.
