Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen sulfide treatment, and in particular to a hydrogen sulfide decomposition hydrogen production device and method. Background Art
[0002] Hydrogen sulfide is a highly harmful toxic gas produced by the oil, natural gas and petrochemical industries. Most companies use the Claus process to treat it. The main purpose is to recover the sulfur in the hydrogen sulfide, and the hydrogen in it generates water through oxidation. In recent years, the country has vigorously promoted the use of hydrogen energy. How to convert the hydrogen element in hydrogen sulfide into hydrogen energy is a hot topic of research at home and abroad. Hydrogen sulfide can be decomposed by microwave method, catalytic thermal decomposition, photocatalytic decomposition and other technologies to produce hydrogen. It is currently limited to the experimental stage and basically has not been industrialized. The more mature technology of producing hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide by indirect electrochemical method has gradually matured and has been promoted. At the same time, there are also some defects. This patent is a further improvement of the production of hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide.
[0003] The indirect electrochemical method is used to decompose hydrogen sulfide to produce sulfur and hydrogen at the same time. This technology first uses gaseous hydrogen sulfide and liquid oxidant to produce solid sulfur. The reaction is carried out in an oxidation reaction vessel. The hydrogen sulfide conversion rate is 85-90%. During the reaction, gas, liquid and solid phases exist simultaneously. The oxidant is liquid, usually prepared with Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution. H2S is absorbed by Fe in the absorption reactor. 3+ The oxidizing liquid is oxidized to form sulfur particles, while Fe 3+ Also reduced to Fe 2+ The slurry containing sulfur particles is sent to the solid-liquid separator. After the sulfur is removed, the H + and Fe 2+ The solution is sent to the electrolytic reactor, and at the anode Fe 2+ Oxidized to Fe 3+ , and then sent back to the absorption reactor for recycling, H + It passes through the ion exchange membrane into the cathode and is reduced to H2, which is released from the cathode.
[0004] The reaction of the whole process is as follows:
[0005] In the absorption reactor: Fe2(SO4)3+H2S=2FeSO4+S↓+H2SO4
[0006] Ionic formula: 2Fe 3+ +H2S=2Fe 2+ +2H++S↓
[0007] Electrolytic cell reaction: FeSO4+H2SO4+=Fe2(SO4)3+H2↑
[0008] Ionic formula: 2Fe2+ +2H+=2Fe 3+ +H2↑
[0009] The total reaction of the whole process: H2S=S↓+H2↑
[0010] The process mainly consists of two parts: the absorption reactor produces elemental sulfur and the electrolyzer produces hydrogen. The main problem is that hydrogen sulfide cannot be completely converted into hydrogen and sulfur, and the conversion rate is low.
[0011] Secondly, the absorption reactor is seriously corroded and blocked. Since the oxidizing medium contains strong acid radicals and is highly corrosive, how to select materials to avoid corrosion plays an important role in this technology. For containers where gas, liquid and solid phases exist simultaneously, the internal structure is also very important. Solid sulfur particles generated during the oxidation process are easy to gather and adhere to the inlet and outlet pipes, the inner wall of the tower, the packing layer, the gas-liquid distribution plate and other tower internals, blocking the container. The oxidation process of H2S is a fast reaction process controlled by mass transfer. The design of the reactor can prevent corrosion and avoid blockage, which can improve the production capacity of the entire process.
[0012] Traditional oxidizers include packed towers, bubbling towers, stirring and mixing towers, etc. Packed towers cannot be operated because solid sulfur is easily blocked when the channel is generated; bubbling towers have a small gas-liquid mass transfer area and low mass transfer efficiency. Solid products generated during the oxidation process are easy to block the gas distributor and affect the distribution of gas. Mixed towers with stirring have strong acid radicals in the oxidizing liquid, which seriously corrodes the transmission shaft, bearings, seals and other parts. These defects make traditional absorption towers unusable for long periods of time.
[0013] The internal circulation absorption reactor disclosed in the patent publication number CN100450917C has a relatively complex internal structure and high manufacturing and maintenance costs. When the gap between the inner tube and the casing is large, the gas and liquid cannot be mixed. When the gap is small, solid sulfur may adhere to the tube wall and cause blockage. From the perspective of chemical structure, the gas phase coming out of the inner tube cannot all turn up, and a part of it comes out directly from the bottom. The resistance coming out from the bottom is smaller than the resistance turning up, and the purpose of gas-liquid mixing cannot be achieved.
[0014] The jet absorption reactor with patent publication number CN107537301B is also only suitable for laboratory use. When the reaction scale is expanded, it will have defects such as uneven mixing, airflow stringing, and reduced efficiency.
[0015] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a hydrogen production device by decomposing hydrogen sulfide to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Summary of the invention

[0031] The present invention also provides a method for producing hydrogen by decomposing hydrogen sulfide, comprising:
[0032] Step 1: Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solutions are prepared into oxidant A solution, and after the oxidant A solution and the mixed gas B containing H2S are mixed with each other in a gas-liquid mixer, the gas-liquid two-phase is ejected at a high speed from the necking port in the middle of the liquid mixer;
[0033] Step 2: The fluid ejected from the gas-liquid mixer at high speed enters the oxidation absorption tower in three ways in the same radial direction. The three feed inlets are at 13-15°C, 15-17°C, and 45-47°C with the center axis of the tower. In the oxidation absorption tower, Fe 3+ Reacts with H2S to generate Fe 2+ With S, H + It is released in the form of H2SO4, and single-substance particles S are formed in the liquid phase.

[0044] 3. Relying on the external power of gas and liquid, the reaction energy is transferred through three mixing steps. First, the gas and liquid are mixed in a gas-liquid mixer outside the tower. Secondly, the oxidation absorption tower has three inward-retracted feed ports, which form a certain angle with each other. The three fluid jets collide and interact with each other to achieve the effect of oxidation reaction. Finally, the gas returning to the tower from the gas-liquid separator also interacts with each other during the rising process. The gas is dispersed into small bubbles and reacts with the liquid as it goes up, which increases the gas-liquid contact area and improves the oxidation efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0065] The top discharge end of the gas-liquid separator 9 is connected to the feed end of the high-temperature cracking furnace 5. The discharge end of the high-temperature cracking furnace 5 is connected to the feed end of the condenser 6 through a conveying pipeline, and the temperature of the high-temperature cracking furnace 5 is 1150-1200°C.

The pressure-switching absorption box 8 receives the gas transmitted from the collector 7, and separates the waste gas and hydrogen, and the waste gas is incinerated.
[0066] The present invention also provides a method for producing hydrogen by decomposing hydrogen sulfide, the specific process is as follows (see attached Figure 1 ):
[0067] The first step is to prepare an oxidant A solution with Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solution in a molar ratio of 4:1, and mix it with a mixed gas B containing H2S through a gas-liquid mixer 1, wherein the molar ratio of the oxidant A solution to the mixed gas B is preferably 5-10:1; the mixed gas containing H2S generally comes from refinery acid gas and oil and gas field natural gas, and the concentration of H2S in the mixed gas B is preferably 0.5% to 80%. The gas-liquid mixer 1 has a diameter at both ends and a small diameter in the middle. When the gas-liquid fluid changes from a large-diameter trumpet-shaped channel to a small-diameter channel, the flow rate will increase sharply, and the gas-liquid two-phase will be ejected at a high speed from the necking port in the middle of the gas-liquid mixer 1;
[0068] In the second step, the fluid ejected at high speed from the gas-liquid mixer 1 enters the oxidation absorption tower 2 in three ways in the same radial direction through the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203. The axes of the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 are 13-15°C, 15-17°C and 45-47°C with the central axis of the oxidation absorption tower 2, respectively, preferably 14°C, 16°C and 46°C, so that the liquid phase ejected from the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 is in a triangular shape, and the three gas-liquid streams collide with each other and interact with each other (see Figure 2 As shown), the oxidation reaction liquid is driven to rotate clockwise, Fe 3+ Reacts with H2S to generate Fe 2+ With S, H + It is released in the form of H2SO4. The better the gas-liquid mixing, the faster the reaction. Elemental particles S are formed in the liquid phase. The light sulfur elemental particles float up with the airflow and gather at the upper part of the tower. The heavy sulfur elemental particles sink to the bottom of the oxidation absorption tower 2.
[0069] Step 3: The slurry of light sulfur particles gathered in the upper part of the oxidation absorption tower 2 is discharged through the liquid phase outlet 205 pipeline containing solid particles, and the slurry containing heavier particles is discharged from the lower part of the tower through the liquid phase outlet 204 pipeline containing solid particles, and is transported to the solid-liquid separator 3 through the delivery pump 301. In the solid-liquid separator 3, the solid sulfur is separated from the reaction liquid by precipitation, centrifugal separation and other measures;
[0070] Step 4: After the solid sulfur is separated in the solid-liquid separator 3, the clear liquid enters the electrolytic cell 4, where H + The electrons move to the cathode and become H2, which is released into liquid Fe 2+ Losing electrons at the anode reduces to Fe 3+ It is converted into an oxidizing liquid and returned to the gas-liquid mixer 1 in the form of Fe2(SO4)3 through the oxidizing liquid circulation line 101 for repeated use;
[0071] Step 5: The oxidized gas comes out from the top of the oxidation absorption tower 2, and the hydrogen sulfide conversion rate is 85-90%. The gas after the oxidation reaction passes through the wire mesh demister 206 at the top of the tower and enters the gas-liquid separator 9 from the top gas phase line 207. The wire mesh demister 206 mainly removes the mist carried by the gas. The gas-liquid separator 9 separates a large amount of liquid carried in the gas and returns to the solid-liquid separator 3.
[0072] Step 6: 1 / 4 to 1 / 5 of the gas from the gas-liquid separator 9 is recycled through the induced draft fan gas phase circulation line 401 in three ways through the first inlet 208, the second inlet 209 and the third inlet 210 into the oxidation absorption tower 2 for recirculation. First, the insufficiently oxidized hydrogen sulfide is oxidized again to ensure that the hydrogen sulfide content of the exhaust gas is ≤15-10%; second, the three air inlet pipes are bubbled in different directions to prevent the sulfur settled at the bottom from agglomerating into blocks and causing blockage.
[0073] Step 7: The gas from the top of the gas-liquid separator 9 enters the high-temperature cracking furnace 5, the temperature is preferably 1150-1200°C, and the furnace is oxygen-free to prevent S oxidation. The hydrogen sulfide not absorbed in the equipment is subjected to high-temperature decomposition to produce gaseous sulfur and hydrogen, the purpose of which is to improve the conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide. The high-temperature cracking furnace 5 is suitable for the condition of low hydrogen sulfide concentration, generally the hydrogen sulfide content is ≤5%, the low hydrogen sulfide concentration reacts thoroughly, and the conversion rate is high;
[0074] Step 8: After the gaseous sulfur and hydrogen are cooled by the condenser 6, the gaseous sulfur changes into liquid phase and enters the collector 7 to form liquid sulfur flowing out. The gas phase part enters the pressure swing adsorption box 8 through the mixed gas line 701. The pressure swing adsorption box 8 contains adsorbent. The adsorbent has different adsorption amount, adsorption speed and adsorption force for different gases. The pressure swing adsorption selects different adsorbents according to the characteristics of hydrogen to achieve hydrogen separation.
[0075] The ninth step is to separate hydrogen from other mixed gases through pressure swing adsorption and turn it into pure hydrogen. Other gases are burned in the incinerator and then discharged after being treated with alkali solution. The mixed gas containing H2S generally comes from oil and gas fields and petrochemical industries and contains N2, CO, CO2, O2 and some organic sulfur, which need to be burned.
[0076] In the above process, hydrogen sulfide reacts twice. The first time is oxidation by strong acid. 2- In the device of the present application, sulfur is oxidized into elemental sulfur, H + It is reduced to H2 in the electrolytic cell 4. In this reaction process, 10-15% of the H2S in the mixed gas does not react. The remaining H2S enters the cracking furnace and belongs to the second reaction, which is directly decomposed at high temperature: H2S=S+H2. The hydrogen sulfide content in the final exhaust gas is ≤0.5-0.1%. The high-temperature cracking and decomposition reaction has harsh reaction conditions and reverse reactions. It needs to be condensed quickly and is suitable for the decomposition of low-concentration hydrogen sulfide.
[0077] In the first reaction process, the oxidation absorption tower 2 is an important equipment. Since the oxidation liquid is Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution or FeCI3+HCI solution, both are highly corrosive, the equipment is lined with graphite polytetrafluoroethylene material, lead enamel or enamel. The applicable temperature is 0~+150℃, and the equipment can withstand 500~800Kpa.
[0078] The filler in the wire mesh demister 206 is made of acid-resistant phenolic plastic, polyethylene or other non-metallic materials. The first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet are on the same horizontal plane, and the center line of the tube is at different angles to the axis of the oxidation absorption tower 2. The first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet are retracted, and the liquid comes out in a jet shape and is in a regular triangle state inside. The gas and liquid in each path collide with each other, and the bubbles become thinner and smaller, fully integrated into the liquid, and the liquid phase in the oxidation absorption tower 2 is driven to rotate slowly in the clockwise direction. During the process of hydrogen sulfide rotating and rising from the bottom of the oxidation absorption tower 2, it is fully converted into sulfur.
[0079] The induced draft fan gas phase circulation line 401 increases the efficiency of hydrogen sulfide oxidation. The outlet ends of the first inlet 208, the second inlet 209 and the third inlet 210 spray bubbles in radial and circumferential directions respectively. After interaction, the bubbles float up from the bottom of the tower and return to the oxidation absorption tower 2 to be fully oxidized.
[0080] The entire oxidation absorption tower 2 has basically no accessories inside, in order to prevent the elemental sulfur particles from being adsorbed and blocked, and also to facilitate the implementation of anti-corrosion.
[0081] The gas-liquid mixer 1 of the oxidation absorption tower 2 is a container with bell-shaped ends and a constricted interior, and a spiral guide plate is provided in the bell-shaped outlet end, so that the gas and liquid rotate at high speed after coming out.
[0082] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0083] Example 1
[0084] A certain oil and gas field uses a mixed gas containing 30% hydrogen sulfide, and the remaining gases are N2, CO, CO2, etc., which is used with Fe-rich 3+ Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution (the molar ratio of Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solution is 4:1) is used as oxidant, and the adsorption reaction temperature is 80℃.
[0085] The gas and liquid enter the gas-liquid mixer 1 at a molar ratio of 1:8. After the gas and liquid are mixed, they enter the oxidation absorption tower 2 through the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 at a speed of 1.5 m / s in three ways. The axes of the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 are 14°C, 16°C and 46°C with the central axis of the oxidation absorption tower 2 respectively. The pipe outlet is retracted, and the liquid comes out in a jet shape. It is in a regular triangle shape when viewed from the inside. The gas and liquid in each way collide with each other, and the bubbles become thinner and smaller, fully integrated into the liquid, and the slurry phase in the tower is driven to rotate slowly in the clockwise direction. During the rising process of the mixed gas, S in hydrogen sulfide 2-Oxidized to elemental sulfur, Fe 3+ Reduced to Fe 2+ The light sulfur particles float up with the air flow and gather at the top of the oxidation absorption tower, while the heavy sulfur particles sink to the bottom of the oxidation absorption tower.
[0086] The slurry of light sulfur particles gathered in the upper part of the oxidation absorption tower 2 is discharged through the liquid phase outlet 205 pipeline containing solid particles, and the slurry containing heavier particles is discharged from the liquid phase outlet 204 pipeline containing solid particles in the lower part of the tower, and is transported to the solid-liquid separator 3 through the delivery pump 301, and the solid sulfur and the reaction liquid are separated in the solid-liquid separator 3;
[0087] After the solid sulfur is separated in the separator 3, the clear liquid enters the electrolytic cell 4, where H + The electrons move to the cathode and become H2, which is released into liquid Fe 2+ Losing electrons at the anode reduces to Fe 3+ It is converted into an oxidizing liquid and returned to the gas-liquid mixer 1 in the form of Fe2(SO4)3 through the oxidizing liquid circulation line 101 for repeated use;
[0088] The residual gas after the oxidation reaction contains 3% hydrogen sulfide, and comes out from the top of the oxidation absorption tower 2, passes through the wire mesh demister 206 at the top of the oxidation absorption tower 2, and enters the gas-liquid separator 9 through the top gas phase line 207. The gas-liquid separator 9 separates a large amount of liquid carried in the gas and returns to the solid-liquid separator 3;
[0089] The gas 1 / 4 induced draft fan gas phase circulation line 401 from the gas-liquid separator 9 is divided into three paths and enters the oxidation absorption tower 2 for recycling through the first inlet 208, the second inlet 209 and the third inlet 210;
[0090] 3 / 4 of the gas from the gas-liquid separator 9 enters the high-temperature cracking furnace. The gas entering the high-temperature cracking furnace is a mixed gas containing N2, CO, CO2, H2S, etc. Hydrogen sulfide is cracked at high temperature and condensed rapidly. After cracking, the gaseous sulfur is condensed into liquid sulfur and hydrogen. After cooling by the condenser 6, the gaseous sulfur becomes liquid and enters the collector 7 to form liquid sulfur outflow. The mixed gas is adsorbed by the pressure swing adsorption box 8 to produce pure hydrogen. The rest enters the incinerator for combustion and then enters the alkali liquid absorber for emptying. The total conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide is 99.5-99.7%.
[0091] Example 2
[0092] A chemical plant uses a mixed gas containing 45% to 50% hydrogen sulfide, and the remaining gases are N2, CO, CO2, COS, etc., to react with Fe-rich 3+ Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution (wherein the molar ratio of Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solution is 4:1) is used as oxidant. The oxidation absorption tower has a diameter of 800mm and a height of 12000mm. The interior is lead-lined and the adsorption reaction temperature is 70-80℃.
[0093] The gas and liquid enter the gas-liquid mixer 1 at a molar ratio of 1:10. After the gas and liquid are mixed, they enter the oxidation absorption tower 2 through the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 at a speed of 1.8 m / s in three ways. The axes of the first gas-liquid mixed air inlet 201, the second gas-liquid mixed air inlet 202 and the third gas-liquid mixed air inlet 203 are 14°C, 16°C and 46°C with the central axis of the oxidation absorption tower 2 respectively. The pipe outlet is retracted, and the liquid comes out in a jet shape. It is in a regular triangle shape when viewed from the inside. The gas and liquid in each way collide with each other, and the bubbles become thinner and smaller, fully integrated into the liquid, and the slurry phase in the tower is driven to rotate slowly in the clockwise direction. During the rising process of the mixed gas, S in hydrogen sulfide 2- Oxidized to elemental sulfur, Fe 3+ Reduced to Fe 2+ The light sulfur particles float up with the air flow and gather at the top of the oxidation absorption tower, while the heavy sulfur particles sink to the bottom of the oxidation absorption tower.
[0094] The slurry of light sulfur particles gathered in the upper part of the oxidation absorption tower 2 is discharged through the liquid phase outlet 205 pipeline containing solid particles, and the slurry containing heavier particles is discharged from the liquid phase outlet 204 pipeline containing solid particles in the lower part of the tower, and is transported to the solid-liquid separator 3 through the delivery pump 301, and the solid sulfur and the reaction liquid are separated in the solid-liquid separator 3;
[0095] After the solid sulfur is separated in the separator 3, the clear liquid enters the electrolytic cell 4, where H + The electrons move to the cathode and become H2, which is released into liquid Fe 2+ Losing electrons at the anode reduces to Fe 3+ It is converted into an oxidizing liquid and returned to the gas-liquid mixer 1 in the form of Fe2(SO4)3 through the oxidizing liquid circulation line 101 for repeated use;
[0096] The oxidized gas comes out from the top of the oxidation absorption tower 2, and the hydrogen sulfide conversion rate is 93%. The gas after the oxidation reaction passes through the wire mesh demister 206 at the top of the tower and enters the gas-liquid separator 9 from the top gas phase line 207. The wire mesh demister 206 mainly removes the mist carried by the gas. The gas-liquid separator 9 separates a large amount of liquid carried in the gas and returns to the solid-liquid separator 3;
[0097] The gas 1 / 5 of the induced draft fan gas phase circulation line 401 from the gas-liquid separator 9 is divided into three paths and enters the oxidation absorption tower 2 for recycling through the first inlet 208, the second inlet 209 and the third inlet 210;
[0098] 4 / 5 of the gas from the gas-liquid separator 9 enters the high-temperature cracking furnace, hydrogen sulfide is cracked at high temperature and condensed quickly, and the gaseous sulfur after cracking is condensed into liquid sulfur and hydrogen. The hydrogen sulfide content of the gas after the high-temperature cracking reaction is 0.4%. After cooling by the condenser 6, the gaseous sulfur becomes liquid and enters the collector 7 to form liquid sulfur outflow. The mixed gas is adsorbed by the pressure swing adsorption box 8 to produce pure hydrogen. The rest enters the incinerator for combustion and then enters the alkali liquid absorber for emptying. The total conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide is 99.1% to 99.2%.
[0099] Compared with Example 1, the concentration of hydrogen sulfide in this example increases, the reaction rate increases, and the conversion rate decreases.
[0100] Due to the simple internal structure and proper anti-corrosion measures, there is no blockage or corrosion during the operation of the oxidation absorption tower.
[0101] Example 3
[0102] The reaction steps and conditions are the same as those in Example 1, except that a mixed gas containing 5-80% hydrogen sulfide and the rest CO2, CO, N2, etc. is used to react with Fe-rich 3+ Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution (wherein the molar ratio of Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solution is 4:1) is mixed by gas-liquid, the gas-liquid molar ratio is 1:5-10, and the temperature in the tower is 80°C. The specific reaction conditions and conversion rate are shown in Table 1:
[0103] Table 1
[0104]
[0105]
[0106] The experimental results in Table 1 show that the conversion rate of low-concentration hydrogen sulfide is high, the conversion rate of 1-40% hydrogen sulfide is above 99.8%, and the conversion rate of high-concentration hydrogen sulfide is low. There are many factors that affect the conversion rate, and the ratio of the oxidizing liquid, the gas circulation volume, the structure of the tower, the high-temperature cracking furnace, etc. are all very important.
[0107] Example 4
[0108] The reaction steps and conditions are the same as those in Example 1, except that a mixed gas containing 15% hydrogen sulfide and the rest CO2, COS, N2, etc. is used to react with Fe-rich 3+ The Fe2(SO4)3+H2SO4 solution (wherein the molar ratio of Fe2(SO4)3 and H2SO4 solution is 4:1) is mixed by gas-liquid mixing, and the gas-liquid molar ratio is 1:10.
[0109] In Example 4, the hydrogen sulfide conversion rate was 99.8%.
[0110] Compared with the prior art, the present invention adds a step of the residual gas entering the high-temperature cracking furnace, thereby improving the conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide. The improved oxidation absorption tower has no tower internals. During use, the gas and liquid are mixed three times. First, they are mixed in the gas-liquid mixer outside the tower; second, there are three jet ports entering the oxidation absorption tower, and the liquid comes out in a regular triangle state inside, and the three air flows interact with each other. Third, the three residual gases coming out of the gas-liquid separator return and are ejected from the bottom of the tower. They also interact with each other during the rising process, and the gas is dispersed into fine bubbles while reacting with the liquid going up. These increase the gas-liquid contact area, thereby effectively improving the oxidation efficiency.
[0111] The above description is only by way of illustration of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
