[0016] Further specific steps include the following:

[0017] (1) Biogas slurry heat exchange

[0018] Biogas slurry heat exchange is a unit that increases the temperature of ammonia-containing biogas slurry through heat exchange and reduces the temperature of deammonified biogas slurry through heat exchange, and can utilize waste heat.

[0019] The ammonia-containing biogas slurry produced by the anaerobic fermentation system is transported to the ammonia-containing biogas slurry tank (1) through a pipeline (temperature is generally 30°C to 35°C, biogas slurry TS is 2% to 5%), the biogas slurry is first mixed with an appropriate amount of defoamer, and after being pressurized by the 1-1 pump (1-1), it passes through the sludge heat exchanger (2), and uses the relatively high temperature (e.g., 90°C) deammonified biogas slurry discharged from the flash deammonification tower (3) as a heat source. After the deammonified biogas slurry is cooled (e.g., the temperature is reduced to 60°C to 70°C), it enters the sedimentation tank (20), and the heated (e.g., heated to 45°C to 55°C) ammonia-containing biogas slurry enters the flash deammonification tower (3) for feeding (preferably feeding from the uppermost zone feed port);

[0020] Multi-stage heat exchange can be set according to the temperature difference between the cold side and the hot side of the mud-mud heat exchanger (2).

[0021] (2) Deammoniation of biogas slurry

[0022] Biogas slurry deammoniation is to deammonify the ammonia-containing biogas slurry by stripping and flash distillation;

[0023] The interior of the flash deammonification tower (3) is divided into a plurality of zones from top to bottom; the ammonia-containing biogas slurry enters and then flows through each zone in sequence; the circulating steam and supplementary fresh steam discharged from the ammonia absorption tower (9) enter the flash deammonification tower (3) (preferably from the lower zone inlet, and the specific positions of the circulating steam and fresh steam can be adjusted as required) and come into countercurrent contact with the ammonia-containing biogas slurry in each zone, and ammonia nitrogen in the biogas slurry is removed by stripping and flash distillation in the flash deammonification tower (3); the deammonified biogas slurry at the bottom of the ammonia absorption tower (9) (the last flash stage) has an ammonia nitrogen content of ≤500 mg / L, is pressurized by the 1st to 5th pumps, and heat is recovered by the mud-mud heat exchanger;

[0024] A small amount of ammonia-containing steam is discharged from the top of the flash deammonification tower (3), and is condensed and concentrated by the distillation tower (4) and the tower top condenser (5). The concentrated ammonia gas is then pressurized by the 1-2 steam circulation machine (1-2) and transported to the ammonium sulfate neutralization tower (10) to react with the residual sulfuric acid in the ammonium sulfate solution to adjust the pH. The remaining majority of the ammonia-containing steam is pressurized by the 1-3 steam circulation machine (1-3) and transported to the ammonia absorption tower (9).

[0025] It is further preferred that the biogas slurry in the flash deammonification tower ③ is circulated in different areas through the 1st to 4th pumps (1-4), preferably a total of 5 1st to 4th pumps (1-4) are circulated in the 6 partitions from zone 1 to zone 6 in sequence, and finally the 1st to 5th pump (1-5) transports the bottom deammonified biogas slurry through the mud-mud heat exchanger (2) to the sedimentation tank (20).

[0026] (3) Ammonia absorption

[0027] Ammonia absorption is the overall absorption of concentrated ammonia gas and ammonia-containing vapor into ammonium sulfate through sulfuric acid;

[0028] The ammonia-containing steam is pressurized by the 1-3 steam circulation machine (1-3) and then enters the lower part of the ammonia absorption tower (9), where the ammonia therein is absorbed by the dilute sulfuric acid to generate a solution of ammonium sulfate with a concentration of 30-35%. The secondary steam after deammoniation and purification in the ammonia absorption tower (9) is sent back to the flash deammonification tower (3) through a pipeline for recycling.

[0029] The ammonium sulfate solution in the ammonia absorption tower (9) passes through the 2nd-3rd pump, and a portion of the ammonium sulfate is sent back to the upper part of the ammonia absorption tower (9) for recycling, and the other portion is sent to the ammonium sulfate storage tank (11);

[0030] Since the ammonium sulfate solution in the ammonia absorption tower (9) contains a small amount of sulfuric acid (generally the pH value is controlled at about 3), the pH value of the ammonium sulfate solution needs to be adjusted before being sent to the evaporation crystallization unit, and the residual sulfuric acid in the solution is neutralized by concentrated ammonia gas; the concentrated ammonia gas comes from the top condenser (9) of the distillation tower, is pressurized by the 1-2 steam circulation machine, and is transported to the bottom of the ammonium sulfate neutralization tower (10), and is countercurrently contacted with the ammonium sulfate solution from the ammonium sulfate storage tank (11) (transported by the 2-4 pump); the ammonia in the gas phase reacts with the residual sulfuric acid in the liquid phase to generate ammonium sulfate, and the pH value of the solution is adjusted to about 6, and is sent to the evaporation tank through the 2-5 pump;

[0031] (4) Evaporation crystallization

[0032] Evaporative crystallization is to evaporate and crystallize the ammonium sulfate solution to separate solid ammonium sulfate;

[0033] The ammonium sulfate solution from the ammonium sulfate storage tank (11) is pressurized by the 2-5 pumps and then sent to the evaporation tank (12), where the heater (14) is heated by fresh steam for cyclic evaporation; preferably, the operating pressure in the evaporation tank (12) is 0.1 MPa and the operating temperature is 128° C. (liquid phase), and the generated secondary steam is sent to the flash deamination tower (3) for stripping and deamination;

[0034] The bottom flow of the evaporation tank (12) is transported to the hydrocyclone (13) for concentration by the 3-1 pump, and the concentrated liquid enters the ammonium sulfate crystallization tank (16) to generate ammonium sulfate crystals, and finally the solid ammonium sulfate is separated by the centrifuge (17) and sent out by the belt conveyor (18); the centrifuged mother liquor obtained by the centrifuge (17) enters the mother liquor tank (20) and is then pressurized by the 3-3 pump and sent back to the evaporation tank (12) for further evaporation and concentration; the ammonium sulfate solution in the evaporation tank (12) is transported by the 3-2 pump and circulated and heated by the heater (14);

[0035] (5) Sulfuric acid dilution

[0036] The concentrated sulfuric acid transported from outside is unloaded into the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank (6) and transported to the acid preparation tank (7) through the 2-1 pump. The process water from the external pipeline is connected to the acid preparation tank (7) for dilution and prepared into dilute sulfuric acid (preferably with a mass concentration of 15%) and flows into the dilute sulfuric acid tank (8). The dilute sulfuric acid in the dilute sulfuric acid tank (8) is transported to the ammonia absorption tower (9) through the 2-2 pump to react with ammonia to generate ammonium sulfate.

[0037] (6) Solid-liquid separation

[0038] Solid-liquid separation separates a small amount of solids from the liquid phase in the deammonified biogas slurry;

[0039] After heat recovery, the deammonified biogas slurry from the flash deammonification tower (3) enters the sedimentation tank (20), where solid particles in the liquid phase slowly settle and enrich under the action of gravity; the dense phase at the bottom of the sedimentation tank is lifted to the horizontal screw centrifuge (21) by the 4-2 pump (slurry pump), and the separated slag is sent out by the screw conveyor (23); the clear liquid of the horizontal screw centrifuge (21) flows back to the clear buffer tank (22) and is transported back to the sedimentation tank (20) by the 4-1 pump; the clarified liquid of the sedimentation tank (20) overflows to the outside for reuse.

[0040] Features of the present invention:

[0041] (1) The present invention is applicable to the deammoniation of biogas slurry in anaerobic fermentation projects, thus realizing the recycling of biogas slurry;

[0042] (2) The biogas slurry of the present invention is no longer discharged, thus reducing the fixed asset investment of anaerobic fermentation projects with the same gas production scale. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0092] Quantity: 3 units;

[0093] Process introduction:

[0094] (1) Biogas slurry heat exchange part

[0095] Biogas slurry heat exchange is a unit that increases the temperature of ammonia-containing biogas slurry through heat exchange and reduces the temperature of deammonified biogas slurry through heat exchange, and can utilize waste heat.

[0096] The ammonia-containing biogas produced by the anaerobic fermentation system is transported to the ammonia-containing biogas tank (design temperature 30℃~35℃, biogas TS2%~5%) through pipelines. The daily production of ammonia-containing biogas is 1200~1300m 3 / d

[0097] (According to 50m 3 / h design). After the biogas slurry feed pump pressurizes the ammonia-containing biogas, it passes through three groups of mud-sludge heat exchangers and uses the deammonified biogas slurry (90℃) discharged from the flash deammonification tower as a heat source to exchange heat with the ammonia-containing biogas slurry. The temperature of the deammonified biogas slurry drops to about 60℃~70℃ and enters the sedimentation tank. The ammonia-containing biogas slurry is heated to 45℃~55℃ and enters the feed port of the first zone of the flash deammonification tower.

[0098] The defoamer and process water are mixed and pressurized in the defoamer system, and then connected to the ammonia-containing biogas pipeline and the ammonia-containing biogas slurry behind the biogas slurry feed pump.

[0099] (2) Biogas slurry deammoniation part

[0100] The flash deammonification tower is divided into 6 zones. The ammonia-containing biogas enters from the feed port of zone 1 and flows through zones 1 to 6 in sequence. Fresh steam enters the flash deammonification tower from zone 6 and contacts with the biogas in countercurrent in each zone. Ammonia nitrogen in the biogas is removed through stripping and flash evaporation. The deammonified biogas after the last stage of flash evaporation is pressurized by a pump and heat is recovered through a mud-mud heat exchanger.

[0101] Deammonified biogas slurry: ammonia nitrogen content ≤ 500mg / L, temperature about 90℃, enters the biogas slurry heat exchange part.

[0102] Circulating steam: Pressure: 0.29MPa·G. From ammonia absorption tower

[0103] Fresh steam: pressure: ≥0.3MPa·G, dosage: Max3000kg / h (continuous). It comes from the steam boiler that utilizes waste heat from the generator supporting the anaerobic fermentation project.

[0104] (3) Ammonia absorption

[0105] The ammonia-containing vapor is pressurized by a steam pump and then enters the lower part of the ammonia absorption tower.

[0106] The ammonium sulfate solution at the bottom of the ammonia absorption tower is pumped back to the upper part of the ammonia absorption tower for spraying and mixing with the rising ammonia-containing steam. The ammonium sulfate solution after absorbing the ammonia in the steam falls to the bottom of the ammonia absorption tower, and the ammonium sulfate is recycled.

[0107] The dilute sulfuric acid is injected into the ammonium sulfate circulation pipeline to absorb ammonia from the ammonia-containing vapor. The amount of dilute sulfuric acid added is adjusted according to the pH value detected online in the ammonium sulfate circulation pipeline. The concentration of the generated ammonium sulfate solution is 30-35%.

[0108] When the ammonium sulfate solution at the bottom of the ammonia absorption tower reaches a certain height (online detection), the bypass electric regulating valve is opened, and a part of the ammonium sulfate solution is sent to the ammonium sulfate storage tank and then pumped to the evaporation tank.

[0109] The pH value in the ammonia absorption tower is controlled at about 3. The discharged ammonium sulfate solution contains a small amount of sulfuric acid. Therefore, before the ammonium sulfate solution is sent to the evaporation crystallization unit, it is neutralized with concentrated ammonia in the ammonium sulfate neutralization tower to remove the residual sulfuric acid in the solution and adjust the pH value.

[0110] (4) Evaporation crystallization

[0111] The ammonium sulfate solution in the ammonium sulfate storage tank is pumped to the evaporation tank.

[0112] Fresh steam is used to indirectly heat the ammonium sulfate solution in the evaporator in the heater. The secondary steam generated will contain a small amount of ammonia, which will be sent back to the flash deamination tower for stripping and deamination and reused. The operating pressure in the evaporator is 0.1Mpa and the operating temperature is 128℃ (liquid phase).

[0113] The bottom flow of the evaporation tank is pumped into the hydrocyclone separator for concentration, and the concentrated liquid at the bottom flows into the ammonium sulfate crystallization tank to form a mixed liquid of crystalline ammonium sulfate, which is then separated into solid ammonium sulfate by a centrifuge and sent out by a belt conveyor.

[0114] The centrifugal mother liquor is pumped to the evaporation tank for further evaporation and concentration.

[0115] The supernatant from the hydrocyclone is returned to the evaporation tank.

[0116] The biogas slurry recycling is completed and the biogas slurry is no longer discharged, while meeting the requirements.
