Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of direct coal liquefaction, in particular to a method for withdrawing alkali liquid during shutdown of a direct coal liquefaction device. Background Art
[0002] my country has realized the industrial application of coal direct liquefaction technology. Since the coal was put into operation, the coal direct liquefaction device has achieved a stable, long-term, high-quality operation level after years of scientific research and technical transformation. Due to the engineering development of the second-generation coal direct liquefaction technology, the second-generation coal direct liquefaction technology process route has made corresponding adjustments to the early coal direct liquefaction project, canceling the internal circulation pumps at the bottom of the two reactors, canceling the internal circulation cups and center tubes inside the reactor, and adding a large circulation pump at the bottom of the high-temperature and high-pressure separator. The circulating material is extracted from the bottom of the high-temperature and high-pressure separator and returned to the inlet of the first reactor, forming a large circulation reaction system including the reactor-high-temperature and high-pressure separator, eliminating the vapor-liquid interface in the reactor, extending the operation cycle, and improving the economic benefits of the device.
[0003] At present, during the shutdown and alkali-removal operation of the coal liquefaction unit, since the storage tanks in the tank area are non-pressure tanks, when the reactor alkali liquid passes through the coal slurry heating furnace outlet and a large amount of alkali-removal liquid is removed, it drops to the low point of the reactor when needed to shut down the process to prevent the pressure from flowing to the tank area. The alkali-removal liquid is discharged to the tank area through the reactor instead. The alkali-removal speed is slow. At the same time, when the alkali liquid is withdrawn to the bottom of the reactor, it is easy to cross-gas, causing overpressure in the tank area storage tanks, affecting the shutdown node of the coal liquefaction unit.
[0004] Therefore, for the second-generation process technology of direct coal liquefaction, it is necessary to explore a method of optimizing the oil and alkali drainage process using the existing process to ensure that the shutdown requirements of the device meet the oil and alkali drainage requirements and meet the needs of the coal liquefaction device during shutdown. Summary of the invention

[0011] The alkali solution discharge buffer tank is connected to the bottom outlet of the foam cyclone separator to receive the separated alkali solution;
[0012] The defoamer is used to eliminate the foam from the top outlet of the foam cyclone separator, and send the defoamed material back to the alkali solution discharge buffer tank;
[0013] The bottom of the alkali liquid discharge buffer tank is connected to the alkali liquid tank in the tank area through an alkali liquid delivery pump of a coal liquefaction device, so as to deliver the alkali liquid in the alkali liquid discharge buffer tank back to the alkali liquid tank in the tank area.
[0014] In order to achieve one aspect of the above-mentioned invention object, the system for shutting down and withdrawing alkali liquid from a coal direct liquefaction device provided by the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:

[0017] S2) After the alkali washing is completed, the alkali liquid delivery pump in the tank area and the alkali liquid pressure pump of the coal liquefaction device are stopped to stop the alkali liquid delivery;

[0024] The present invention provides buffering, degassing and defoaming of alkali solution after alkali washing is completed, so as to prevent bubbling of alkali solution tank in tank area, which leads to further slowing down of alkali solution withdrawal speed in the final stage and affects the shutdown node of coal liquefaction device. The present invention has low investment cost, high economic benefit, small safety risk and simple operation.
[0025] The present invention has made a lot of improvements and innovations in design, production, commissioning and other aspects, and put forward a series of control indicators to ensure that the alkali solution is buffered, degassed and defoamed, and avoid the problem of overpressure of the alkali solution tank in the tank area.
