Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to but is not limited to gas processing technology, and particularly to a membrane gas separation method, system, computer storage medium and terminal. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, membrane gas separation has been gradually applied to the field of natural gas processing and processing, showing good application prospects. Membrane gas separation uses the difference in the rate at which different gas components pass through the membrane assembly (gas separation membrane rate) driven by pressure difference to achieve gas separation; taking helium extraction as an example, high-pressure helium-containing natural gas enters the membrane assembly as the raw gas, and helium is a "fast gas" that can pass through the membrane material at high speed to become a low-pressure product gas (permeate gas); other gases such as methane are "slow gases" and are enriched on the high-pressure retentate side (tail gas). Membrane gas separation can achieve natural gas dehydration, desulfurization (or decarbonization), condensate recovery, natural gas helium extraction and other processing processes at room temperature. The entire process does not require heating and has the advantages of simple process, small equipment footprint and low operating costs; however, the effect of gas separation and concentration using membrane gas separation in related technologies is poor. How to improve the effect of membrane gas separation has become a problem to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0025] During the membrane gas separation process, the driving force for gas to pass through the membrane assembly is the pressure difference of the gas components on the feed side and the permeate side. Currently, the main method used in engineering is to increase the pressure on the feed side by using a feed gas compressor to increase the pressure difference on both sides of the membrane assembly. In fact, the pressure ratio between the feed side and the permeate side is an important factor affecting the rate and effect of membrane gas separation; although increasing the feed gas pressure by using a feed gas compressor can significantly increase the pressure difference on both sides of the membrane assembly, the effect of increasing the pressure ratio is not obvious, which limits the effect of membrane gas separation to a certain extent.
[0026] In order to solve the problem that increasing the raw gas pressure can increase the pressure difference on both sides of the membrane, but the effect of increasing the pressure ratio is not obvious, the disclosed embodiment proposes a technical solution of adding a permeate gas vacuum pump on the permeate side to draw a vacuum.

[0028] Step 101, adjusting the vacuum degree on the permeate side to a predetermined vacuum degree target value;
[0029] Step 102: when it is determined that the vacuum degree on the permeate side reaches the target value, the permeate gas is separated and concentrated; here, after the permeate gas is separated and concentrated, the product gas can be obtained by referring to the relevant technology;
[0030] The vacuum target value is greater than a preset vacuum minimum value.
[0031] The embodiment of the present disclosure increases the pressure difference on both sides of the membrane assembly and the pressure ratio on both sides of the membrane assembly by evacuating the permeate side to a target vacuum value, thereby improving the membrane gas separation effect.
[0032] In the membrane gas separation method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the permeate side and the feed side are separated by a membrane assembly, and the membrane assembly is the core device for realizing gas separation; the types of membrane assemblies in the embodiment of the present disclosure may include hollow fiber membranes, rolled membranes, flat membranes or tubular membranes.
[0033] The vacuum target value of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be set by technical personnel based on experience according to the application scenario of membrane gas separation. By setting a reasonable vacuum target value, the pressure difference on both sides of the membrane assembly can be increased, and the pressure ratio can be greatly increased, thereby improving the membrane separation efficiency and providing a raw material basis for other subsequent processing. In an exemplary embodiment, the vacuum target value in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be a value in the range of 1-100 kilopascals (kPa); the vacuum target value of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be a value in the range of 10 kPa to 80 kPa.
[0034] In an exemplary embodiment, the vacuum degree target value of the embodiment of the present disclosure is determined by the following process:
[0035] Obtaining pressure data and composition data of the raw gas and pressure data and composition data of the permeate gas;
[0036] The vacuum degree target value is calculated based on the obtained pressure data and composition data of the raw gas, the pressure data and composition data of the permeate gas and the predetermined membrane separation parameters.
[0037] The basic principle of calculating the target vacuum value in the embodiment of the present disclosure is: the permeation rate differential equation dRi=JidA△pi, wherein Ri is the permeation rate of component i per unit area, Ji is the permeability coefficient of component i, A is the membrane area, and △pi is the partial pressure difference between the raw gas of component i and the permeating gas, which is the driving force for gas to permeate the membrane material.
[0038] Based on the above calculations, the disclosed embodiments can accurately obtain an objective vacuum target value that meets production applications, and provide data support for objectively and accurately improving the pressure difference and pressure ratio on both sides of the membrane assembly, improving the membrane separation efficiency and the quality of gas separation and concentration.
