Description
Technical Field

[0002] The natural gas liquefaction process is a highly sophisticated and efficient energy conversion process. In this process, natural gas is first transported to a dedicated cold box. This closed and low-temperature environment undergoes a crucial condensation stage for the natural gas. This stage relies on the efficient operation of the condenser and the recycling of a large amount of refrigerant. As an excellent heat transfer medium, the refrigerant effectively absorbs the heat of the natural gas and significantly reduces its temperature to a liquefied state.
[0003] However, in the process of liquefying natural gas, a certain amount of cold air will inevitably accumulate inside the cold box. This cold air contains a large amount of underutilized cold energy. In order to ensure that the pressure and temperature in the cold box remain stable and to ensure the continuity and safety of the liquefaction process, this cold air needs to be discharged regularly through the pressure reducing valve. Although this step is crucial to the entire liquefaction process, it also causes a significant problem: serious waste of cold sources. In the process of releasing the cold air through the pressure reducing valve, the air containing cold energy is not reasonably utilized, resulting in a huge waste of resources.

A cold air delivery component 23 is further added, which works in conjunction with the compressed air component 21 and can efficiently convert room temperature air into cold air and hot air, perfectly adapting to the needs of subsequent low-temperature and high-temperature processing equipment, achieving significant energy-saving effects, and optimizing the cooling and heating efficiency respectively, showing excellent application performance. Specifically, the compressed air component 21 first compresses the room temperature air in the air collecting box 211 into high-pressure gas, and then the cold air delivery component 23 takes over this process and finely separates the high-pressure gas into two parts, cold air and hot air.

The overall application effect is remarkable. The present invention is also innovatively equipped with a cold air insulation component 25, which can circulate and transport low-temperature cold air with a temperature of about -168°C to the metal cold box 11. Through the efficient thermal conductivity of the metal cold box 11, the rapid cooling of the inside of the cold box 10 is achieved.

Overall, this innovative design is not only energy-saving and environmentally friendly, but also significantly optimizes the use effect of the cold box 10, showing excellent performance. ,
[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the compressed air component 21 includes a frame 210, an air collecting box 211, an air compressor 212 and an air storage box 213. The frame 210 is fixedly connected to the base 100 and is located on one side of the cold box 10. The air collecting box 211, the air compressor 212 and the air storage box 213 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 210 in sequence along the vertical direction. One end of the cold air utilization component 22 and the hot air gas transmission component 24 respectively penetrate into the interior of the frame 210 and are connected to the air inlet end arranged on the surface of the air collecting box 211. The air inlet end of the air compressor 212 is connected to the interior of the air collecting box 211, and the exhaust end of the air compressor 212 is connected to the interior of the air storage box 213, wherein a valve is arranged on the exhaust end of the air compressor 212, and the air storage box 213 is connected to one end of the cold air gas transmission component 23.
[0026] It should be noted that an air supply pipe is separately provided on the surface of the air collecting box 211 , and a pressure relief valve and a pressure sensor are respectively provided on the air collecting box 211 and the air storage box 213 .
[0027] Specifically, the structure and connection relationship of the compressed air component 21 are further explained. The compressed air component 21 is not only responsible for collecting the discharged cold air that has been restored to normal temperature, but also has the ability to compress the cold air into compressed air, which provides valuable raw materials for the subsequent generation of cold air and hot air. The core components of the compressed air component 21 include an air collecting box 211, an air compressor 212 and an air storage box 213. During operation, the air collecting box 211 first collects the cold air that has been processed and restored to normal temperature. Then, the air compressor 212 automatically starts to extract the normal temperature cold air from the air collecting box 211. And through its powerful compression function, it converts the cold air into high-pressure compressed gas. After compression, the gas is transported to the air storage tank 213 for storage for subsequent use. The whole operation process is not only simple and easy, but also energy-saving and efficient. Through the automatic extraction and compression function of the air compressor 212 and the storage function of the air storage tank 213, the compressed air component 21 can stably and continuously provide compressed air, providing the necessary raw material support for subsequent process links. This design not only optimizes the utilization of cold air resources, but also improves the energy efficiency of the overall system, showing an excellent energy-saving effect.

[0029] Specifically, the structure and connection relationship of the cold air utilization component 22 are further explained. The design of the cold air utilization component 22 fully reflects the concept of efficient recovery and utilization of the cold air discharged from the cold box 10. This component is not only responsible for receiving the cold air discharged from the cold box 10, but also carefully plans its transportation path to ensure that the cold air resources are utilized to the greatest extent in different process links, thereby achieving the goal of efficient energy saving.
[0030] Specifically, in order to meet the low-temperature separation process's requirement for a temperature of -100°C, the cold air is first transported to the interior of the first cooling tube 50. In the first cooling tube 50, the cold air fully releases its cold energy to provide the necessary cooling effect for the low-temperature separation process. After completing the low-temperature separation, the cold air continues to flow and is transported to the interior of the second cooling tube 60 and the third cooling tube 70, respectively. These two cooling tubes respectively meet the low-temperature deacidification and low-temperature dehydration process's requirements for a temperature range of -40°C to -20°C. In the second cooling tube 60 and the third cooling tube 70, the cold air continues to play its cooling role to help the low-temperature deacidification and low-temperature dehydration process proceed smoothly. Finally, the cold air that has been used many times and whose temperature gradually increases is transported to the air collecting box 211, where the cold air is further collected and processed to provide raw materials for the subsequent compressed air component 21. Through this series of temperature sequence settings and cold air transportation processes, the cold air utilization component 22 not only ensures the full utilization of cold air resources in different process links, but also significantly improves the energy efficiency and use effect of the overall system.
[0031] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a central connecting pipe 225 is respectively connected between the second cooling pipe 60 in the deacidification component and the second ventilation pipe 223 and the third ventilation pipe 224, and second three-way pipes 226 are respectively arranged on the surfaces of the two groups of central connecting pipes 225. The air inlet ends of the two groups of second three-way pipes 226 and one group of exhaust ends are respectively connected to the inside of the two groups of central connecting pipes 225, and the other group of exhaust ends of the two groups of second three-way pipes 226 are respectively connected to the air inlet end and the exhaust end of the low-temperature pipe 61 in the deacidification component.
[0032] Specifically, the middle connecting pipe 225 serves as a bridge for cold air delivery, connecting different parts of the cold air utilization component 22, and the second three-way pipe 226 is located on the middle connecting pipe 225, playing a key diversion role. It is responsible for accurately introducing cold air that meets the temperature conditions required by the second cooling pipe 60 (-40°C to -20°C) into the low-temperature pipe 61. Inside the low-temperature pipe 61, these cold air continue to play its efficient heat conduction role, so that the pipe wall is evenly cooled. Since the low temperature in the tower is the same as the cold air temperature of the temperature conditions required by the second cooling pipe 60, this design can ensure that the temperature in the tower is accurately controlled to the ideal deacidification range, which not only improves the deacidification efficiency, but also avoids the process instability caused by temperature fluctuations. In addition, through the mutual cooperation of the middle connecting pipe 225 and the second three-way pipe 226, the system can further increase the number of related low-temperature equipment, which means that more low-temperature equipment can share the same cold source, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cold source. This design not only reduces energy consumption, but also improves the energy efficiency and flexibility of the overall system.
[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4As shown, a second exhaust valve 2251 is provided on the surface of the middle connecting pipe 225 which is respectively connected to the third ventilation pipe 224 and the second cooling pipe 60 . The second exhaust valve 2251 is located between one group of exhaust ends of the third ventilation pipe 224 and the exhaust end of the second cooling pipe 60 .
[0034] Specifically, installing the second exhaust valve 2251 can effectively prevent the cold air exhausted from the low-temperature pipe 61 from flowing back into the second cooling pipe 60, ensuring that all gases smoothly enter the third ventilation pipe 224, significantly improving the operating efficiency and effect of the system.
[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the cold air delivery component 23 includes an exhaust pipe seat 231, a third exhaust valve 232, a vortex tube 233, a cold air pipeline 234, a fourth exhaust valve 235, a first temperature sensor 236, a cold air collecting box 237 and a fifth exhaust valve 238. The exhaust pipe seat 231 is fixedly connected to the surface of the air storage box 213 and is connected to the inside of the air storage box 213. One end of the exhaust pipe seat 231 passes through the outside of the frame 210 and is connected to the air inlet end of the vortex tube 233.

The cold air pipeline 234 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cold box 10, one end of the cold air pipe 234 is connected to the cold air end of the vortex tube 233, and the other end of the cold air pipe 234 is connected to one group of exhaust ends of the first three-way pipe 221, the fourth exhaust valve 235, the first temperature sensor 236 and the cold air collecting box 237 are arranged on the cold air pipe 234 in sequence, the fifth exhaust valve 238 is arranged on the surface of the first three-way pipe 221 and corresponds to the position of the cold air pipe 234, the hot air end of the vortex tube 233 is connected to the hot air delivery component 24, and the cold air insulation component 25 is arranged on the cold air collecting box 237.
[0036] Specifically, the structure and connection relationship of the cold air delivery component 23 are further explained. The cold air delivery component 23 is carefully designed to process compressed air and convert it into cold air and hot air of set temperature. Specifically, the component can deliver cold air with a temperature as low as about -168° by connecting to the metal cold box 11. This measure significantly reduces the internal temperature of the cold box 10, effectively shares part of the workload of the refrigerant and the condenser 12, and reduces energy consumption. In addition, the cold air delivery component 23 also accurately delivers the cold air with a temperature of -100° after consuming part of the cold energy into the first cooling pipe 50 through the connection of the first three-way pipe 221, which meets the temperature requirement of about -100° for low-temperature separation. Then, during the transportation process, after consuming part of the cold energy, the cold air with a temperature of about -40° is accurately delivered to the second cooling pipe 60 and the third cooling pipe 70, respectively, which meets the -40° cooling requirements of low-temperature deacidification and low-temperature dehydration cooling. ° to -20°, and then during the transportation process, after continuing to consume part of the cold air, the air with a temperature of about 20° is transported to the air collecting box 211 for storage. At the same time, the cold air delivery component 23 and the hot air delivery component 24 work closely together to reasonably distribute the hot air in the range of 40° to 80° generated by the vortex tube 233. The hot air is respectively guided to the temperature control pipe 80 and the high-temperature pipe 62, providing a suitable temperature environment for the desulfurization and deacidification processes, ensuring the efficient progress of the chemical reaction, and when the hot air temperature exceeds 80°, the hot air delivery component 24 delivers this part of heat energy to the natural gas drying component 200 for drying the natural gas, showing excellent use effect and flexibility. The cold air delivery component 23 not only optimizes the distribution and utilization of cold air, but also through the coordinated work with the hot air delivery component 24, realizes the precise and efficient temperature control in the natural gas processing process, and the use effect is good.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the hot air delivery component 24 includes a third three-way pipe 241, a switching valve 242, a hot air pipeline 243, a middle pipe 244, a return air pipe 245 and a second temperature sensor 246. The third three-way pipe 241 is fixedly connected to the hot air end surface of the vortex tube 233, the switching valve 242 is arranged on the surface of the third three-way pipe 241, the hot air pipeline 243 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cold box 10 and is located on one side of the bottom of the cold air pipeline 234. One end of the hot air pipeline 243 is connected to one group of exhaust ends of the third three-way pipe 241, and the other end of the hot air pipeline 243 is connected to the inlet of the temperature control pipe 80 in the desulfurization component. The middle connecting pipe 244 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cold box 10, one end of the middle connecting pipe 244 is connected to the exhaust end of the temperature control pipe 80 in the desulfurization component, and the other end of the middle connecting pipe 244 is connected to the air inlet end of the high-temperature pipe 62 in the deacidification component. The return air pipe 245 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cold box 10, one end of the return air pipe 245 is connected to the exhaust end of the high-temperature pipe 62 in the deacidification component, and the other end of the return air pipe 245 passes through the interior of the frame 210 and is connected to the air inlet end arranged on the surface of the air collecting box 211. The second temperature sensor 246 is arranged on the surface of the hot air pipe 243.
[0038] It should be noted that a heat-insulating layer is provided on the surfaces of the hot air pipe 243 , the intermediate pipe 244 and the return air pipe 245 .
[0039] Specifically, the structure and connection relationship of the hot air delivery component 24 are further explained. The hot air delivery component 24 is designed to capture the hot air between 40° and 80° generated by the vortex tube 233, and efficiently transmit it to the temperature control tube 80 of the desulfurization component, the high-temperature tube 62 of the deacidification component and the gas collecting box 211 in turn. In the temperature control tube 80, the hot air causes the tube wall to heat up synchronously through heat conduction. This mechanism is crucial in semi-dry desulfurization technology. It can ensure that the operating temperature is maintained in the ideal range of 40° to 80°, thereby maximizing the activity and reaction rate of the desulfurizer and significantly improving the desulfurization effect. The operating temperature range of traditional low-temperature distillation towers usually spans from tens of degrees Celsius to negative tens of degrees Celsius. In the high-temperature tube 62, the hot air continues to exert its heat conduction efficiency, causing the tube wall to heat up synchronously, effectively adjusting the temperature in the tower to a range suitable for deacidification. Finally, the fully utilized hot air is introduced into the gas collecting box 211 for centralized collection. The entire process shows excellent application and good use effect.
[0040] In actual application, the hot air with a temperature of 40° to 80° generated by the vortex tube 233 is first smoothly introduced into the hot air pipe 243 through the third three-way pipe 241, and then accurately sent to the interior of the temperature control pipe 80 along the hot air pipe 243. In the temperature control pipe 80, the hot air continues its process and is then guided to the interior of the high-temperature pipe 62. Finally, the hot air after a series of effective utilization is discharged to the air collecting box 211 for centralized treatment. For the hot air with a temperature exceeding 80° generated by the vortex tube 233, this part of the heat energy is directly transported to the interior of the natural gas drying component 200 for utilization. In order to ensure the accuracy of temperature control, the system is equipped with a second temperature sensor 246 for real-time monitoring. Once the air temperature is detected to exceed 80°, the air flow path can be quickly adjusted by simply operating the switching valve 242 to ensure that all hot air above 80° is guided to the natural gas drying component 200, thereby achieving efficient distribution and utilization of thermal energy.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, another set of exhaust ends of the third three-way pipe 241 is connected to the air inlet end of the natural gas drying component 200 .
[0042] Specifically, connecting the other exhaust end of the third three-way pipe 241 to the air inlet end of the natural gas drying component 200 can make full use of the hot air above 80°. By introducing this hot air into the natural gas drying component 200, the heating efficiency can be significantly improved, and the energy consumption of the electric heating component can be effectively reduced, achieving better performance.
[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a metal heat sink 247 is provided on the surface of the return air pipe 245 .
[0044] It should be noted that the metal heat sink 247 described in this embodiment is used to cool the passing gas, and the material can be selected to be aluminum alloy or copper alloy.
[0045] Specifically, the metal radiator 247 can effectively cool the hot air at 40° to 80° to about 20°, ensuring that the temperature of the air entering the air collecting box 211 is consistent with the original air in the box, thereby maintaining the stability of the compressed air temperature inside the air storage box 213, avoiding temperature increase, and achieving good use effect.
[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5-Figure 6As shown, the cold air insulation component 25 includes a circulating air pump 251, a first delivery pipe 252 and a second delivery pipe 253. The circulating air pump 251 is fixedly connected to the top of the cold air collecting box 237. The air inlet end of the circulating air pump 251 is connected to the interior of the cold air collecting box 237. The exhaust end of the circulating air pump 251 is connected to the interior of the air inlet end of the first delivery pipe 252. The exhaust end of the first delivery pipe 252 passes through the interior of the cold box 10 and is connected to the interior of the air inlet end of the metal cold box 11. The exhaust end of the metal cold box 11 is connected to the interior of the air inlet end of the second delivery pipe 253, and the exhaust end of the second delivery pipe 253 is connected to the interior of the cold air collecting box 237.
[0047] Specifically, the cold air insulation component 25 is intended to maintain the low temperature state of the cold box 10 and the metal cold box 11 inside it by circulating cold air, thereby improving the energy efficiency and stability of the entire system. In the cold air insulation component 25, the circulating air pump 251 works to draw cold air from the cold air collecting box 237 and deliver it to the metal cold box 11 in the cold box 10 through the first delivery pipe 252. In the metal cold box 11, the cold air absorbs heat and lowers the temperature, and then is re-delivered back to the cold air collecting box 237 through the second delivery pipe 253. In this way, the cold air forms a closed-loop circulation in the system, which not only improves the utilization rate of the cold air, but also maintains the low temperature state of the cold box 10 and the metal cold box 11 inside it, effectively replacing part of the refrigeration function of the condenser 12 and the refrigerant, not only saving energy and reducing emissions, but also greatly improving the refrigeration efficiency.
[0048] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention is a high-efficiency and energy-saving natural gas processing device. The present invention has a reasonable structure, can efficiently recycle and utilize the exhausted cold air, effectively solves the problem of cold source emission, and realizes the precise separation of cold and hot air through a sophisticated secondary treatment process. In this process, the treated cold air can replace part of the refrigeration function of the condenser 12 and the refrigerant, which not only saves energy and reduces emissions, but also greatly improves the refrigeration efficiency. The treated hot air can meet the heating needs of related high-temperature equipment, realizes energy saving and efficiency improvement of heating equipment, and has excellent overall application performance.
