Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical equipment, and in particular to a swirl nozzle, a tubular distributor, a fluidized bed reaction device and a method for hydrocarbon ammoxidation reaction. Background Art

[0002] Tubular distributor is a kind of gas distributor commonly used in catalytic cracking and hydrocarbon ammoxidation reactors. It is characterized by a free end, which can solve the problems of thermal expansion and multi-stage gas feeding. It is especially suitable for large reactors and processes that require multiple groups of gas feeds. At present, the tubular distributor is composed of a main pipe, a branch pipe, a branch pipe and a nozzle.

[0003] CN204017797U discloses a feed distributor for an ammonia oxidation reactor. The various sections of the distributor are attached to each other and the wall of the reactor using gas-tight quick disconnect fittings to facilitate the replacement of different sections of the feed distributor used in a commercial ammonia oxidation reactor. In addition, the diameter of the branch pipes in these distributor sections and the diameter of the feed nozzles attached to these branch pipes are changed to facilitate the uniform flow of the feed gas through these components. The distributor can be subdivided into a plurality of feed distributor sections arranged for better reactor control. Finally, the end cap terminated at the far end of the distributor branch pipe can be provided with a nozzle for removing any ammonia oxidation catalyst that may accidentally reach the inside of the distributor. However, as the size of the reactor is enlarged, the problem of uneven flow field in the distributor is further exacerbated. Summary of the invention

[0004] Most of the existing tubular distributor nozzles are simply short tubes connected to branch pipes. When the airflow enters the nozzle from the branch pipe, the sudden change in flow direction may cause serious deviation, or even cause the backflow of materials (such as catalysts) outside the tubular distributor due to local decompression. Although a type of pressure swirl nozzle commonly used in liquid atomization has good uniform distribution performance, it is difficult to apply to reactors containing particulate materials (such as catalyst particles) due to the strong back suction effect caused by central centrifugal decompression. Furthermore, it is also difficult to apply to hydrocarbon ammoxidation reactions that use more tubular distributors. Based on the foregoing, the purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems existing in the prior art, and through a large amount of CFD simulation and flow field analysis and specific experimental research, a swirl nozzle, a tubular distributor, a fluidized bed reaction device and a method for hydrocarbon ammoxidation reaction are provided, which can enhance the uniform gas distribution performance of the tubular distributor, and further have the effect of improving the yield of the ammoxidation product.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a swirl nozzle on one hand, the swirl nozzle comprising:

[0007] A center column is arranged in the cyclone chamber, the top end of the center column is connected to the shell top wall of the cyclone chamber, the bottom end of the center column extends to the bottom opening of the lower cyclone chamber, the bottom end of the center column is connected to a guide body, and a nozzle discharge port with an annular gap is formed between the guide body, the bottom end of the center column and the bottom opening of the lower cyclone chamber;

[0008] The material entering from the nozzle feed port can flow on the inner peripheral wall of the swirl chamber to form a downward swirl around the central column, and the downward swirl is ejected in an umbrella shape through the nozzle discharge port.

[0009] The second aspect of the present invention provides a tubular distributor, which includes a branch pipe and a plurality of branch pipes connected to the branch pipe, a plurality of swirl nozzles according to the present invention are installed on the branch pipe, and the connecting ends of the branch pipe and the branch pipe are provided with rectifying components capable of enhancing logistics distribution.

[0010] A third aspect of the present invention provides a fluidized bed reaction device, which comprises a reaction chamber, wherein a material distributor is arranged in the reaction chamber, and the material distributor comprises the tubular distributor described in the present invention.

[0011] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides the use of the swirl nozzle of the present invention, the tubular distributor of the present invention, or the fluidized bed reaction device of the present invention in ammonia oxidation, catalytic cracking, nitrobenzene hydrogenation or coal gasification reaction.

[0012] The fifth aspect of the present invention provides a method for hydrocarbon ammoxidation reaction, which adopts the fluidized bed reaction device of the present invention, and the material distributor includes at least one tubular distributor and a gas distribution plate;

[0013] Preferably, the method comprises:

[0014] The raw materials containing hydrocarbon source and ammonia source enter the reaction chamber through the tubular distributor.

[0017] Through the above technical scheme, the swirl nozzle of the present invention allows the incoming material to flow on the inner wall of the swirl chamber to form a downward swirl around the central column, and is ejected in an umbrella shape through the nozzle discharge port. On the one hand, it can achieve a more optimized material flow distribution effect, and on the other hand, it can eliminate the influence of the backflow of materials outside the swirl nozzle caused by local decompression; the rectifying component of the tubular distributor of the present invention can eliminate the gas deviation inside the tubular distributor, so that the gas distribution performance of the distributor is closer to the ideal gas distribution state, and the uniform distribution of the gas flow is enhanced; further, the reaction materials of the fluidized bed reaction device of the present invention are closer to the ideal gas distribution state, so that the reaction materials are fully contacted and the raw material conversion rate is improved; further, the method of hydrocarbon ammoxidation reaction of the present invention has the effect of improving the yield of ammoxidation products and reducing the amount of raw materials.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.

[0032] The endpoints and any values ​​of the ranges disclosed in this article are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values ​​should be understood to include values ​​close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoint values ​​of each range, the endpoint values ​​of each range and the individual point values, and the individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed in this article.

[0033] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, directional words such as "up, down, top, bottom" are usually used with reference to the directions shown in the drawings or are used to describe the relative positional relationships of components in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; "inside and outside" usually refer to the inside and outside of a chamber relative to an inner chamber or the radial inside and outside relative to the center of a circle.

[0034] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the first aspect of the present invention provides a swirl nozzle, the swirl nozzle 19 comprises:

[0035] A shell, wherein a swirl chamber is formed around the shell, and the swirl chamber includes an upper swirl chamber 22 and a lower swirl chamber 23, wherein the lower swirl chamber 23 is configured as a tapered chamber that tapers downward, and a bottom opening is formed at the bottom end of the tapered chamber, and the shell is provided with a nozzle feed port 21 connected to the upper swirl chamber 22;

[0036] The center column 24 is arranged in the swirl chamber, the top of the center column 24 is connected to the top wall of the shell of the swirl chamber, the bottom of the center column 24 extends to the bottom opening of the lower swirl chamber 23, the bottom of the center column 24 is connected to the guide body 26, and the nozzle outlet 25 with an annular gap is formed between the guide body 26, the bottom end of the center column 24 and the bottom opening of the lower swirl chamber 23. Figure 8 As shown, the entire shell is sleeved around the center column 24 and the guide body 26 , but does not contact the guide body 26 .

[0037] Among them, the material entering from the nozzle feed port 21 can flow on the inner wall of the swirl chamber to form a downward swirl around the central column 24, and the downward swirl is ejected in an umbrella shape through the nozzle discharge port 25. In this way, on the one hand, a more optimized material flow distribution effect can be achieved; on the other hand, the influence of backflow of materials (such as catalysts) outside the swirl nozzle caused by local decompression can be eliminated.

[0038] like Figure 8 As shown, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the flow guide 26 includes a gradually expanding section whose cross section gradually increases in the axial downward direction, the small end of the gradually expanding section is connected to the bottom end of the center column 24, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the large end of the gradually expanding section is larger than the area of ​​the bottom end opening of the lower swirl chamber 23;

[0039] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the material that is backflowed into the swirl nozzle 19 is taken as an example of catalyst particles, but the present invention is not limited to this. In some embodiments, in the fluidized bed reaction device, the catalyst particles will be carried upward by the gas (such as air) of the bottom feed, and the nozzle outlet 25 of the swirl nozzle 19 is located above the gas feed port of the bottom feed, and the nozzle outlet 25 is facing the bottom of the fluidized bed reaction device. In this way, since the gas velocity of the nozzle outlet 25 is greater, the formation of local decompression will cause the catalyst particles that are upward with the gas to be sucked into the swirl nozzle, and the gradually expanding section of the guide body 26 can prevent the backflow of the catalyst; further, the gradually expanding section is set to be a truncated cone, and the small end of the truncated cone is connected to the bottom end of the center column 24, and the connection surface of the two can be located above, below or flush with the bottom end surface of the conical cavity; the distance between the connection surface of the gradually expanding section and the center column 24 and the bottom end surface of the conical cavity in the height direction is 0 to 0.1 times the diameter of the center column 24.

[0040] In the present invention, the central column 24 can be a cylindrical column with a constant diameter or a tapered column with a diameter gradually decreasing from top to bottom, and the ratio of the large end diameter to the small end diameter of the tapered column is 1 to 1.5.

[0041] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a tapered section with a gradually decreasing cross-section axially downward is provided below the gradually expanding section; the tapered section is configured to be conical, so that when the gas carrying particulate matter, such as catalyst particles, fed from below the swirl nozzle 19 passes through the conical tapered section upward, the catalyst particles are dispersed, which increases the contact area with the reaction materials on the one hand, and on the other hand, the dispersed catalyst is also away from the nozzle outlet 25, thereby avoiding being sucked into the nozzle due to the pressure difference.

[0042] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tapering section and the gradually expanding section are connected by a buffer section. The tapering section, the buffer section and the gradually expanding section can be integrally formed, and the buffer section is cylindrical or drum-shaped with a raised middle portion, so that the longitudinal cross-section of the flow guide 26 is roughly elliptical or spindle-shaped; wherein the buffer section located in the middle increases the spacing between the tapering section and the gradually expanding section, so that the particles dispersed through the conical tapering section can be further away from the nozzle outlet 25 when reaching the height of the nozzle outlet 25 to avoid being sucked into the nozzle 19, thereby eliminating the influence of backflow.

[0043] In the present invention, the nozzle feed port 21 is connected to the peripheral wall of the shell and communicates with the upper swirl chamber 22. The nozzle feed port 21 extends along the tangent direction, involute direction or spiral direction of the inner peripheral wall of the shell, so that the material is fed along the tangent direction, involute direction or spiral direction of the swirl chamber 22; Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the nozzle feed port 21 extends along the tangent direction of the inner circumferential wall of the shell.

[0044] In the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, the angle β between the intersection of the first inner wall 211 of the nozzle feed port 21 and the inner circumferential wall of the shell and the line connecting the center of the shell and the tangent of the intersection is 60° to 120°.

[0045] In the present invention, the normal cross section of the nozzle feed port 21 in the material flow direction is one of rectangular, circular or elliptical.

[0046] In the present invention, the upper swirl chamber 22 is a cylindrical or truncated cone-shaped chamber.

[0047] In the present invention, preferably, the ratio of the height of the cylindrical cavity and / or the truncated cone cavity to the diameter of the circle at the middle position is 0.1-10.

[0048] In the present invention, the ratio of the maximum diameter to the minimum diameter of the truncated cone-shaped cavity is more preferably 0.1-10.

[0049] In the present invention, the top diameter of the conical cavity is the same as the bottom diameter of the upper swirl cavity 22, and the ratio of the bottom diameter to the top diameter of the conical cavity is 0.1 to 10. It should be noted that the lower swirl cavity of the nozzle in the present invention is not limited to Figure 7-Figure 8The downwardly tapering conical cavity shown in the figure may also be a downwardly expanding conical cavity according to actual use requirements. In the embodiments of the present invention, only the downwardly tapering conical cavity is used as an example to illustrate the advantages of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0051] In the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the tubular distributor 4 is a tree-shaped tubular distribution structure; a plurality of branch pipes 14 are arranged on both sides of the branch pipe 13, and the plurality of branch pipes 14 on both sides are symmetrically arranged with the branch pipe 13 as an axis, and the length gradually decreases from the middle of the branch pipe toward both ends.

[0052] In the present invention, the branch pipe 14 is extended radially along the branch pipe 13, one end of the branch pipe 14 is connected to the side of the branch pipe 13 through the rectifying component 16, and the other end is closed; the cross section of the branch pipe 14 is circular, elliptical or rectangular.

[0053] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, along the mainstream direction 15 of the logistics, the branch pipe 13 is a tapered pipe with a gradually decreasing cross-section of the tube cavity; in this way, the gas flow rate from the branch pipe 13 to the branch pipe 14 can be evenly distributed. Furthermore, the branch pipe 13 is preferably a round pipe, and the ratio of the large end diameter to the small end diameter of the round pipe is 0.1 to 0.9; more preferably, the branch pipe 13 is composed of multiple sections of round pipes with different diameters connected end to end; further preferably, the length of each section of the round pipe accounts for 0.05 to 0.95 of the total length of the branch pipe 13; further, the ratio of the maximum diameter to the minimum diameter of the branch pipe 13 is 0.1 to 0.9. Figure 2 As shown, in the present invention, the tubular distributor 4 also includes a main pipe 12, and a plurality of branch pipes 13 are provided, and the plurality of branch pipes 13 are radially arranged on the side of the main pipe 12, and one end of the branch pipe 13 is connected to the main pipe 12, and the other end is set to be closed.

[0054] It should be noted that by adding a main pipe 12 and a plurality of branch pipes 13, the gas raw material enters from the main pipe 12, is distributed to a plurality of branch pipes 13, and finally distributed to all branch pipes 14. This can greatly increase the ventilation capacity, increase the chemical reaction output, and help reduce the unit cost of the device operation and improve economic efficiency.

[0055] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rectifying member 16 is a pipe with a variable diameter, such as Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, the large end of the rectifying member 16 is connected to the radial direction of the branch pipe 13, and the small end is connected to the branch pipe 14. The rectifying member 16 and the branch pipe have various shapes, such as Figure 4 or Figure 5 As shown, the flow cross-section of the rectifying component 16 is circular, elliptical or rectangular to connect with the corresponding circular or square branch pipes. In the embodiment of the present invention, the circular branch pipe is used as an example to illustrate the advantages of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0056] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tube shell surrounding the rectifying member 16 can be regarded as consisting of a straight tube shell 17 and a different-diameter curved tube shell 18 in the axial direction, that is, the straight tube shell 17 and the different-diameter curved tube shell 18 located below the straight tube shell 17 together form a variable-diameter tube cavity of the rectifying member 16, wherein the radial cross-section of the different-diameter curved tube shell 18 is an inward-concave arc with the center at the top, and the diameter of the inward-concave arc gradually decreases along the logistics direction inside the rectifying member 16 until the cross-sectional area of ​​the tube cavity formed by the straight tube shell 17 is the same as the cross-sectional area of ​​the branch pipe 14; specifically, viewed from the longitudinal cross-sectional direction of the rectifying member 16, along the logistics direction inside the rectifying member 16, the profile of the different-diameter curved tube shell 18 is one of a circular arc, an elliptical arc or a parabola; the straight tube shell 17 and the different-diameter curved tube shell 18 are smoothly transitionally connected in the radial direction to reduce the resistance of the airflow flowing through the inside of the rectifying member 16.

[0057] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the angle α between the outer contour of the straight tube shell 17 and the mainstream direction 15 of the branch pipe 13 is 90° to 175°; along the logistics direction in the rectifying component 16, the profile of the different-diameter curved tube shell 18 is one of a circular arc, an elliptical arc or a parabola.

[0058] A third aspect of the present invention provides a fluidized bed reaction device, which comprises a reaction chamber 2, in which a material distributor is arranged, and the material distributor comprises the tubular distributor 4 of the present invention.

[0059] In the present invention, preferably, the material distributor includes at least one tubular distributor 4 and a gas distribution plate 7; more preferably, the ratio of the vertical distance between the gas distribution plate 7 and the adjacent tubular distributor 4 to the height of the reaction chamber 2 is 0.01 to 0.1.

[0060] The fluidized bed reaction device of the present invention is used in the ammonia oxidation reaction, and also includes some structures of the conventional ammonia oxidation reaction device in the prior art, such as a gas collecting chamber, a cyclone separator and a heat exchange device, etc. Specifically, for example, in some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1As shown, the fluidized bed reaction device has a reaction chamber 2 and is provided with a first material inlet, a second material inlet 9, and a first material outlet 11 connected to the reaction chamber 2.
