Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of atmospheric purification and environmental protection, and particularly relates to a process for preparing high-concentration carbonyl sulfide by desulfurizing blast furnace gas. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, blast furnace gas source desulfurization technology has been widely applied in the domestic steel industry, aiming to reduce sulfur emissions and meet the requirements of the national double carbon policy. In the prior art, such as the blast furnace gas desulfurization processes disclosed in patents CN202323125605, CN202323094336 and CN202410636644, etc., generally include dechlorination and deoxidation pretreatment, conversion of organic sulfur COS into inorganic sulfur H2S, and reprocessing of H2S. However, the current H2S reprocessing method has some problems.

[0003] A common practice is to use disposable activated carbon adsorbents for adsorption, but this method does not achieve true desulfurization effect, because the adsorption-saturated activated carbon is only used as fuel in the sintering process of the steel plant, and the sulfur element is not effectively recovered. Another method is to oxidize the adsorption-saturated H2S to generate elemental sulfur for recovery. Although this method achieves sulfur recovery, it has high requirements for the anti-blocking device of the process and has a blocking problem.

[0004] In addition, carbonyl sulfide (COS) in blast furnace gas has high application value. High-concentration carbonyl sulfide can be used as an intermediate raw material and is widely used in the synthesis of pesticides, medicines and other chemical products; high-purity COS can also be used in the processing of electronic sheet parts precision etching products in aviation, machinery and chemical industries. If carbonyl sulfide can be purified from the large amount of blast furnace gas, it can meet the application requirements and reduce sulfur emissions.

[0005] However, the existing disposable activated carbon adsorption technology will gradually be eliminated because it does not meet the requirements of the double carbon policy. Although the reusable activated carbon technology has potential for promotion, the blocking problem in the preparation of sulfur still needs to be solved. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a more efficient and environmentally friendly blast furnace gas desulfurization technology to achieve effective recovery and utilization of sulfur in blast furnace gas and solve the blocking problem in the existing technology. SUMMARY

[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a process for preparing high-concentration carbonyl sulfide by desulfurizing blast furnace gas, which changes the desorption atmosphere so that when the adsorption-saturated adsorbent is desorbed, it is controlled to generate only carbonyl sulfide without generating sulfur, thereby concentrating and converting low-concentration carbonyl in blast furnace gas into high-concentration carbonyl sulfide through adsorption.

[0007] The present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A process for preparing high-concentration carbonyl sulfur by desulfurizing blast furnace gas, comprising the following steps:

[0009] S1, the blast furnace gas is introduced into a pretreatment device for temperature reduction, dehydration, chlorine removal and dust removal, and then the temperature is raised to obtain blast furnace gas A;

[0010] S2, the pretreated blast furnace gas A is introduced into a COS hydrolysis device for hydrolysis treatment, so that all the organic sulfur in the blast furnace gas is converted into inorganic sulfur, and blast furnace gas B is obtained;

[0011] S3, the blast furnace gas B after hydrolysis treatment is introduced into a hydrogen sulfide adsorption device with one standby for desulfurization treatment, and blast furnace gas C is obtained;

[0012] S4, the sulfur-free blast furnace gas C after desulfurization treatment is discharged in two ways, one of which is directly exported for use, and the other is introduced into a carbon dioxide separation device through an induced draft fan for treatment, and carbon dioxide and blast furnace gas D without carbon dioxide are separated, wherein the separated carbon dioxide is stored in a liquid CO2 storage tank;

[0013] S5, the blast furnace gas D is heated by a heater and then introduced into the hydrogen sulfide adsorption device saturated with adsorbent, and reacts with the adsorbent saturated with adsorbent to convert the adsorbed sulfur species into carbonyl sulfur, so that a higher concentration of carbonyl sulfur desorption gas is obtained, and the adsorbent is regenerated, and a higher concentration of carbonyl sulfur gas is obtained, and the regenerated adsorbent can be reused after being cooled;

[0014] S6, the higher concentration of carbonyl sulfur desorption gas obtained in step S5 is separated by a high-concentration COS separation device to obtain a high-purity liquid carbonyl sulfur liquid, which is stored in a liquid COS storage tank, and the gas after separation of carbonyl sulfur is returned to the external pipe network.

[0015] In step S1, the pretreatment device dehydrates, removes chlorine ions and dust at a temperature of 0-10℃, and removes water, chlorine ions and dust in the blast furnace gas by freezing water cooling method; the temperature is raised to 50-80℃.

[0016] In step S2, the COS hydrolysis device is filled with a hydrolysis catalyst, and the hydrolysis catalyst comprises a catalytic carrier and a loaded active component, wherein the catalytic carrier is one or more compounds of carbon nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, magnesium oxide, titanium oxide, zirconium oxide and cerium oxide, and the loaded active component is one or more of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium oxalate, potassium oxalate, sodium sulfate and potassium sulfate.

[0017] The hydrogen sulfide adsorption device in step S3 includes two in parallel, when one of the hydrogen sulfide adsorption device is saturated, the other hydrogen sulfide adsorption device starts to work, and the saturated hydrogen sulfide adsorption device starts to desorb.

[0018] The hydrogen sulfide adsorption device is filled with adsorbent, the adsorbent includes adsorbent carrier and active component, wherein the adsorbent carrier is one or more of coal activated carbon, wood activated carbon and petroleum coke activated carbon, and the active component is one or more of iron nitrate, cobalt nitrate, nickel nitrate, iron sulfate, cobalt sulfate, nickel sulfate, iron chloride, cobalt chloride, nickel chloride, iron oxalate, cobalt oxalate, nickel oxalate, copper nitrate, copper acetate, copper chloride and copper sulfate.

[0019] In step S4, the sulfur-free blast furnace gas C used for external delivery accounts for 80-95% of the total gas, and the sulfur-free blast furnace gas C transferred to the carbon dioxide separation device for treatment accounts for 5-20% of the total gas.

[0020] In step S4, the carbon dioxide separation device includes pressure swing adsorption and low-temperature condensation to separate liquid carbon dioxide, wherein the low-temperature condensation temperature is-150℃ to-50℃.

[0021] In step S5, the heating temperature of the adsorbent during regeneration is 180-220℃, and the concentration of the higher concentration of carbonyl sulfide desorption gas is 5%-20%.

[0022] In step S6, the high-concentration COS separation device includes pressure swing adsorption and low-temperature condensation to separate liquid carbonyl sulfide, wherein the low-temperature condensation temperature is-150℃ to-50℃.

[0023] In step S6, the concentration of the liquid high-purity carbonyl sulfide liquid is greater than 98%.

[0024] The technical scheme of the present application has the following advantages:

[0025] The present application can effectively remove the sulfur species in the blast furnace gas through the system processing device, and realize ultra-low emission. At the same time, a small amount of purified gas is separated for carbon dioxide, and then the adsorbent is desorbed, which can effectively use a small amount of gas for regeneration of the adsorbent, and realize the recycling of the adsorbent. On the other hand, the desorption product of the adsorbent is carbonyl sulfide, which avoids the problem of pipeline blockage caused by solid sulfur during the regeneration of the adsorbent. The separated liquid carbon dioxide can be discharged for carbon emission, and the obtained high-purity liquid carbonyl sulfide product can be used as a chemical raw material or as an electronic sheet part precision etching gas, realizing the resource utilization of sulfur in the blast furnace gas.
