Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of industrial gas purification, and specifically to an industrial gas purification method, which is suitable for the catalytic purification of industrial gases containing ammonia and oxygen, olefins, HCN, complex sulfides, COS, etc. in high CO+CO2 gas sources such as coal gas, blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, calcium carbide tail gas and other industrial waste gases. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, domestic coal chemical industry has developed rapidly, and the products produced have greatly surpassed the traditional synthetic ammonia, urea and methanol. In many cases, the raw coal gas from the gasifier no longer needs to be converted and is directly washed with low-temperature methanol and deep-cold separated in a cold box to extract CO and H2 in the coal gas to produce different chemical products. The unconverted raw coal gas contains impurities such as oxygen, olefins, HCN and complex sulfides, which need to be purified before entering the low-temperature methanol washing and cold box to remove oxygen, saturate olefins, convert HCN into NH3, and convert complex sulfides into hydrogen sulfide.

[0003] In addition, the comprehensive utilization of blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas and calcium carbide tail gas has become a new trend. In addition to useful components such as CH4, CO and H2, these industrial waste gases also contain impurities such as oxygen, olefins, HCN and complex sulfides that need to be purified.

[0004] Hydrogenation treatment of impurities such as oxygen, olefins, HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide and carbon disulfide is a conventional and effective purification method. At the same time, cobalt-molybdenum hydrogenation catalysts have also been widely and successfully used in the natural gas industry. However, industrial waste gases such as crude coal gas, blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, and calcium carbide tail gas are different from natural gas. They contain high contents of CO and CO2. When the cobalt-molybdenum hydrogenation catalyst is used at a temperature greater than 230°C, the high contents of CO and CO2 will react with the H2 in the gas source to produce the following side reactions:

[0005] CO disproportionation reaction: 2CO==C(S)+CO2 (1)

[0006] CO reduction reaction: CO + H2 == C(S) + H2O (2)

[0007] CO methanation reaction: CO + 3H2 = = CH4 + H2O (3)

[0008] CO2 methanation reaction: CO2+4H2==CH4+2H2O(4)

[0009] Side reactions (1) and (2) will cause the catalyst to be deactivated by carbon deposition. Side reactions (3) and (4) are highly exothermic reactions, which will cause the catalyst bed to overheat. Overheating of the bed will aggravate the catalyst deactivation by carbon deposition. There have been many cases of dangerous accidents such as overheating and reactor burning caused by the use of purifiers in gas sources containing CO, CO2 and H2 under high temperature conditions. Therefore, the cobalt-molybdenum catalyst traditionally widely used in the hydrodesulfurization and deolefination of natural gas cannot be used for hydrogenation purification of crude coal gas and industrial gases such as blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, and calcium carbide tail gas. Currently, the hydrogenation catalysts sold on the market at home and abroad all require CO+CO2≤10%. The market is in urgent need of a hydrogenation catalyst that can be used in high-content CO+CO2 working conditions.

[0010] At the same time, industrial gases such as raw coal gas, blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, and calcium carbide tail gas contain tens to thousands of ppm of NH3. The existing catalysts for hydrogenation treatment of impurities such as oxygen, olefins, HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide and carbon disulfide require inlet ammonia <0.1ppm. They are quickly deactivated when used under conditions where ammonia exceeds the standard. In order to simplify the process, the market urgently needs hydrogenation catalysts that can be used in ammonia-containing conditions.

[0011] In addition, transition metal-containing catalysts can also undergo varying degrees of FT reaction under high temperature conditions, generating a certain amount of multi-carbon chain macromolecular hydrocarbon substances, which not only increases raw material consumption and affects the normal operation of downstream PSA, low-temperature methanol washing and cold box, but also easily blocks the catalyst pores and causes carbon deposits, which should be avoided as much as possible. Summary of the Invention

[0012] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an industrial gas purification method. The method can be used to purify oxygen, olefins, HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2 and other complex sulfides and COS from industrial gases containing ammonia and high CO2+CO2 content, achieving the desired purification effect.

[0013] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0014] A new method for purifying industrial gas comprises the following steps: (1) industrial gas containing NH3 and high CO+CO2 first enters an industrial gas purification catalyst bed at 230-450°C for purification treatment; (2) then enters the same industrial gas purification catalyst bed at 80-200°C for purification treatment, wherein the industrial gas purification catalyst comprises a type A molecular sieve and MoO3 / WO3 (MoO3 or WO3) and NiO / CoO (NiO or CoO) supported on the type A molecular sieve, wherein the content of molybdenum or tungsten is 3-12wt% based on MoO3 or WO3, and the content of nickel or cobalt is 3-7wt% based on NiO or CoO, and the molecular sieve further contains 55%-75% by mole of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal that has not been ion-exchanged, wherein the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal is sodium, potassium or calcium.

[0015] According to the above method, in the above purification method, oxygen, olefins, HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, carbon disulfide and other organic sulfur (complex sulfides) impurities other than COS in the gas source are first hydrogenated at 230-450°C to remove oxygen, saturate olefins, and purify HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2 and other impurities into ammonia and H2S. The impurity COS in the gas source is purified into H2S at 80-200°C. The reactions involved in this process are as follows:

[0016] O2+2H2==2H2O

[0017] C m H 2m +H2==C m H 2m+2

[0018] HCN+3H2==NH3+CH4

[0019] C4H4S+4H2==C4H 10 +H2S

[0020] RSH+H2==H2S+RH

[0021] RSR+2H2==H2S+2RH

[0022] RSSR+3H2==2H2S+2RH

[0023] CS2+4H2==2H2S+CH4

[0024] COS+H2==H2S+CO

[0025] COS+H2O==H2S+CO2

[0026] Furthermore, the ammonia-containing and high-CO+CO2 source gas has an NH3 content of 0.001% to 0.5% and a CO+CO2 content greater than 10%. Specifically, it may be industrial gas such as crude coal gas, blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, and calcium carbide tail gas. The ammonia-containing and high-CO+CO2 source gas generally also contains H2. If necessary, hydrogen can be added to the gas source.

[0027] According to the above scheme, the industrial gas is heated and / or used as the cold gas at the inlet of the first reactor and heat exchanged with the outlet gas of the first reactor, and then enters the first reactor filled with an industrial gas purification catalyst bed for reaction. The hot gas at the outlet of the first reactor is cooled to the required temperature and enters the second reactor to react with the same industrial gas purification catalyst, and then the reacted gas is discharged. The processing temperature of the first reactor is 230-450°C; the processing temperature of the second reactor is 80-200°C.

[0028] According to the above scheme, the hot gas at the outlet of the first reactor is heat exchanged with the cold gas at the inlet and / or cooled to the required temperature of the second reactor.

[0029] According to the above scheme, the reaction temperature of the first reactor is adjusted by adjusting the gas volume and temperature rise degree of the outlet gas of the first reactor and the cold gas inlet of the first reactor for heat exchange; the reaction temperature in the second reactor is adjusted by adjusting the gas volume and cooling degree of the outlet gas of the first reactor and the cold gas inlet of the first reactor for heat exchange.

[0030] According to the above scheme, the reaction temperature in the first reactor is controlled according to the content of outlet oxygen, olefins, HCN and complex sulfides such as thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2, etc. during the reaction.

[0031] According to the above scheme, after the reaction, the removal rates of oxygen, olefins, mercaptans, sulfides, disulfides, and carbon disulfide are greater than 95%, and the removal rates of HCN, COS, and thiophene are greater than 90%.

[0032] According to the above scheme, the space velocity of the industrial gas purification catalytic reaction in the reactor is 500~20000h -1 ; When the reaction is carried out in the reactor, the pressure of the reaction system is controlled to 0.01MPa~5MPa.

[0033] According to the above scheme, the sieve size of the A-type molecular sieve is

[0034] According to the above scheme, the type A molecular sieve can be commercially available 3A, 4A, or 5A molecular sieves.

[0035] Typical chemical composition of type A molecular sieve: Wherein M represents Na, K, and Ca.

[0036] Typical chemical composition of 3A molecular sieve: Typical chemical composition of 4A molecular sieve: Typical chemical composition of 5A molecular sieve:

[0037]

[0038] According to the above scheme, the industrial gas purification catalyst is firstly to pass the A type molecular sieve through NH4 + Ion exchange, roasting to remove ammonia, and then ion exchange loading Ni / Co, so that the molecular sieve still contains 55% to 75% of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal that has not been ion exchanged, the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal is sodium, potassium, and calcium, and then loaded with Mo / W to obtain.

[0039] According to the above scheme, the preparation method of the above industrial gas purification catalyst specifically includes the following steps:

[0040] (1) ion exchange the type A molecular sieve with an ammonium salt solution at 80-100°C for 3-10 hours, repeat the exchange multiple times, filter, wash, and then calcine at 300-400°C for use;

[0041] (2) preparing a solution containing Ni / Co, stirring the solution with the powder obtained in step (1) at 80-100° C. for 5-8 hours, repeating the exchange multiple times, filtering, washing, and drying for later use;

[0042] (3) preparing a solution containing the active component Mo / W, impregnating an equal amount of the solution onto the powder obtained in step (2), and drying the solution for later use;

[0043] (4) Adding a binder to the powder obtained in step (3) and shaping it into a spherical, bar-shaped or columnar shape, and activating it at 400-600°C to complete the catalyst preparation.

[0044] According to the above scheme, after the ion exchange in steps (1) and (2), it is ensured that the molecular sieve still contains alkali metals and alkaline earth metals such as sodium, potassium, and calcium that have not been ion-exchanged in a molar ratio of 55% to 75%.

[0045] According to the above scheme, the ammonium salt includes but is not limited to ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, and ammonium nitrate.

[0046] According to the above scheme, the active components in the solution containing the active components Mo / W and Ni / Co are all salts thereof, including but not limited to ammonium molybdate, ammonium metatungstate, nickel nitrate, and cobalt nitrate.

[0047] According to the above scheme, as needed, ammonia water can be used as a co-solvent in the preparation of the solution of the active component Mo / W to prepare the solution of the active component salt.

[0048] According to the above scheme, the shaped dosage form can be spherical, bar-shaped or column-shaped.

[0049] Traditional cobalt-molybdenum hydrogenation catalysts used in natural gas chemical industry use activated alumina carriers. In order to hydrogenate and purify oxygen, olefins, and complex sulfides such as thiophene, mercaptans, and disulfides, they must be used above 350°C. However, when the system contains a high CO+CO2 gas source, side reactions such as methanation and CO disproportionation at temperatures exceeding 230°C can easily lead to catalyst overheating, carbon deposition, and deactivation, and even burn the catalyst and reactor, resulting in safety accidents. At the same time, the FT reaction occurs to generate multi-carbon chain macromolecular hydrocarbons, which not only increases raw material consumption and affects the normal operation of downstream PSA, low-temperature methanol washing, and cold box, but also easily blocks the catalyst pores and causes carbon deposition.

[0050] The industrial gas purification catalyst of the present invention can be applied to industrial gases containing NH3 and high CO+CO2, such as crude coal gas, blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas, yellow phosphorus tail gas, calcium carbide tail gas and other industrial waste gases. It purifies oxygen, olefins, HCN and thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2 and other complex sulfide impurities in the gas source into water, saturated hydrocarbons, ammonia and H2S at 230-450°C, and purifies COS impurities into H2S at 80-200°C. At the same time, CO conversion and its reverse reaction do not occur, and side reactions such as CO disproportionation and methanation are greatly reduced. No new C m H n (m≥3) and other hydrocarbon substances.

[0051] The industrial gas purification catalyst of the present invention is used after sulfurization. It is used to purify oxygen, olefins, HCN, and complex sulfides such as thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2, and / or COS. The removal rates for oxygen, olefins, mercaptan, sulfide, disulfide, and CS2 are >95%, and the removal rates for HCN, COS, and thiophene are >90%.

[0052] Conventional cobalt-molybdenum catalysts used in natural gas chemical processing, supported by activated alumina, produce large quantities of multi-carbon macromolecules during high-temperature hydrogenation, compromising the safe operation of subsequent processes. Furthermore, conventional molybdenum catalysts used in the petrochemical industry for oil hydrogenation often incorporate acidic additives such as phosphorus or fluorine to increase the support acidity and enhance hydrogenation activity. However, these acidic supports cannot be used with ammonia-containing gas sources, as they rapidly lose activity. Furthermore, while enhancing hydrogenation activity, these acidic supports can also lead to carbon deposition from CO disproportionation and methanation of CO and CO₂, causing catalyst overheating and deactivation. Conventional cobalt-molybdenum catalysts supported by activated alumina, when used in gas sources containing H₂O, CO, CO₂, and H₂, inevitably undergo a CO shift reaction or its reverse reaction, altering the effective composition of CO and H₂ in the gas. Furthermore, since the CO shift reaction is also highly exothermic, its occurrence also alters the catalyst bed temperature. This, combined with the intense heat release from the aforementioned side reactions, such as CO disproportionation and methanation, complicates reaction control and increases the risk of safety incidents.

[0053] The industrial gas purification catalyst used in this patent uses A-type molecular sieve to load active components, cleverly utilizes the 3-5 angstrom pore size distribution of A-type molecular sieve, and utilizes the characteristics of the molecular sieve pore structure to inhibit the generation of multi-carbon chain macromolecules. At the same time, it cooperates with the use of the remaining sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals on the molecular sieve to inhibit and reduce the occurrence of CO disproportionation, CO reduction and methanation of CO and CO2 and other side reactions, effectively avoiding catalyst runaway temperature and carbon deposition deactivation. At the same time, the sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals on the molecular sieve inhibit the adsorption of ammonia and can be used in a gas source containing NH3 (0.001% to 0.5%). In addition, sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals are also good carbon removers, which accelerate the elimination of a small amount of carbon precipitation in the catalyst due to CO disproportionation and avoid carbon accumulation on the catalyst carrier.

[0054] The industrial gas purification catalyst of the present invention effectively avoids the CO shift reaction or its reverse reaction without changing the content of effective components such as CO and H2 in the gas source. It also purifies oxygen, olefins, HCN, and complex sulfides such as thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, and CS2 at 230-450°C, and COS at 80-200°C.

[0055] The main effects of this patent are:

[0056] (1) The present invention designs a staged process, using the same industrial gas purification catalyst to purify under two different temperature conditions, which can completely solve the current industrial application of oxygen, olefins, HCN and complex organic sulfides, and meet the requirements of post-process PSA, low-temperature methanol washing and low-temperature cold box. Specifically, the patent design first purifies oxygen, olefins, HCN and other organic sulfurs other than COS, such as thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, carbon disulfide, etc. through the first reactor, and then cools down and uses the same industrial gas purification catalyst to hydrolyze COS into H2S at 80-200℃. Due to the limitation of thermodynamic equilibrium constant, the COS hydrogenation equilibrium concentration is greater than the COS hydrolysis equilibrium concentration. COS cannot meet the purification requirements at 230-450℃ when it passes directly through the industrial gas purification catalyst in the first reactor. Sometimes the concentration will increase after high-temperature purification. The process of the present invention is designed in stages, fully considering the characteristics of the material to be purified, and achieves a good purification effect.

[0057] (2) Traditional cobalt-molybdenum hydrogenation catalysts must be used at temperatures above 280°C in order to hydrogenate and purify oxygen, olefins, and complex sulfides such as thiophene, mercaptan, and disulfide. However, when used in high CO+CO2 gas sources, side reactions such as methanation and CO disproportionation may cause the catalyst to overheat, become inactivated by carbon deposition, and even burn out the catalyst and reactor, leading to safety accidents. This patent is based on a newly developed industrial gas purification catalyst, which uses type A molecular sieve to load active components, cleverly utilizes the 3-5 angstrom pore size distribution of type A molecular sieve, and utilizes the characteristics of the molecular sieve pore structure to inhibit the generation of multi-carbon chain macromolecules. When combined with the use of the remaining sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals on the molecular sieve, the impurities can be selectively purified and treated, which can inhibit and reduce the occurrence of side reactions such as CO disproportionation, CO reduction and methanation of CO and CO2, effectively avoiding catalyst temperature runaway and carbon deposition deactivation. At the same time, the sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals on the molecular sieve inhibit the adsorption of ammonia and can be used in NH3-containing gas sources (0.001% to 0.5%). In addition, sodium, potassium, calcium and other alkali metals or alkaline earth metals are also good carbon removers, which accelerate the elimination of a small amount of carbon precipitation in the catalyst due to CO disproportionation and avoid carbon accumulation on the catalyst carrier. It effectively avoids the occurrence of CO shift reaction or its reverse reaction without changing the content of effective components such as CO and H2 in the gas source.

[0058] (3) The process gas purification method of the present invention is used for the purification of complex sulfides and COS such as oxygen, olefins, HCN, thiophene, disulfide, mercaptan, sulfide, CS2, etc. The removal rates of oxygen, olefins, mercaptan, sulfide, disulfide, and CS2 are greater than 95%, and the removal rates of HCN, COS, and thiophene are greater than 90%.
