Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical processes, and in particular relates to an adsorption regeneration production process and system and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of high-purity ammonia for industrial ammonia production, an adsorption process is usually set up to remove some impurities. Since the adsorption process has a saturated regeneration cycle, the regeneration usually has a temperature and pressure change regeneration process. The temperature change process generally introduces hot carrier gas, and the adsorbent is completely regenerated by sufficient purge. In order to avoid the introduction of new trace impurities in the regeneration process, high-purity product gas is usually used as the hot carrier gas, which causes product consumption during the purge process and reduces the product yield.

[0003] At present, there are several different production processes for high-purity ammonia production, which can be roughly classified into: complete distillation type, filtration adsorption distillation type and complete filtration adsorption type. Compared with the three processes, the complete filtration adsorption type production process is relatively simple, but its production quality is relatively low at present, and the product quality is determined by the purifier; the process of production based on distillation is more complicated than the process of production based on purifier adsorption. The production process needs to control the process parameters to make the product meet the requirements, but the quality of production based on distillation will be more stable; the filtration adsorption distillation process combines the respective advantages of distillation and adsorption, and has certain advantages in the production process of high-purity ammonia. However, the high-purity ammonia adsorption regeneration process currently used basically uses purified product gas for regeneration to ensure the cleanliness of its system.

[0004] In addition to the process of regenerating the adsorbent using product gas as regeneration gas, which is commonly used in high-purity gas production processes, in other gas purification fields, the process of using a third gas (a third gas other than feed gas and product gas) as regeneration gas is also commonly used. For example, air purification in air separation units and crude hydrogen purification in liquid nitrogen washing units all use nitrogen as the hot regeneration gas.

[0005] The existing adsorption regeneration process includes pressure swing regeneration and temperature swing regeneration process, and is equipped with regeneration heater, molecular sieve adsorber and other equipment. The adsorption regeneration process is equipped with a sequential control program. However, the disadvantages of the existing technology are:

[0006] 1) Using product gas as hot regeneration gas causes product consumption during the purge process, reducing product yield;

[0007] 2) The use of a third gas as the thermal regeneration gas introduces impurity gases, which increases the difficulty of purifying the downstream high-purity gas, and the product purity is not easy to meet the requirements.

[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-purity ammonia production process that can achieve complete regeneration, does not introduce impurities during the process, and improves product yield. Summary of the invention
