Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of low-temperature methanol washing, and specifically relates to a method for purifying syngas for a pulverized coal gasification device and a device for purifying syngas for a pulverized coal gasification device. Background Art

[0002] In the production of syngas by using pulverized coal gasification technology, H 2 and CO are called effective gases. At the same time, the syngas also contains a large amount of CO 2 and trace amounts of H 2 S, COS, NH 3 , HCN and other components. Among them, H 2 and CO are raw material gases for synthesizing chemical products such as methanol and ammonia after adjusting the hydrogen-carbon ratio through a shift unit. Acid gases CO 2 and H 2 S are generally poisons for synthesis catalysts, so they must be removed before the synthesis process.

[0003] The low-temperature methanol washing technology uses low-temperature methanol as an absorption solvent, and utilizes the excellent property that low-temperature methanol has a great solubility for acid gases to physically absorb and remove H 2 S and CO 2 and other acid gases in the syngas, and at the same time removes trace components such as HCN and NH 3 . This process has the advantages of high gas purification degree, good selectivity, large methanol absorption capacity, etc. The regeneration of the methanol solvent after absorbing acid gases is achieved through staged pressure reduction flashing and thermal regeneration.

[0004] Currently, the innovative research on low-temperature methanol washing technology mainly focuses on the recycling of the pressure reduction flashing of rich CO 2 methanol. The typical process is the lean liquid - semi-lean liquid process, and this technology has played a positive role in reducing the comprehensive energy consumption of the low-temperature methanol washing process. In the low-temperature methanol washing process flow, rich CO 2 methanol can be recycled through flashing, but H 2 S-containing methanol must be recycled through thermal regeneration, which is the main energy-consuming source of low-temperature methanol washing. Therefore, improving the utilization efficiency of H 2 S-containing methanol is the direction and key factor of future technological innovation. Specifically, it is necessary to achieve that before the thermal regeneration of H 2 S-containing methanol, its absorption of H 2 S gas in the syngas reaches the upper limit, so as to reduce the amount of rich H 2 S-containing methanol that needs to be thermally regenerated.

[0005] CN201110260570.0 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing process. First, in this low-temperature methanol washing process, all of the H 2 S absorption tower uses rich CO2 Methanol is used to wash the syngas, and there is no research and recycling system for the low-H 2 S methanol solution in the system, allowing it to undertake part of the potential of absorbing H 2 S gas in the syngas. Because the rich CO 2 after absorbing H 2 S gas becomes rich-H 2 S methanol, which cannot be regenerated by simple pressure reduction flashing, but needs to consume steam in the thermal regeneration system for regeneration. The lean methanol after regeneration has a relatively high temperature and needs to consume cooling water and other low-temperature cooling capacities to be cooled down before it can be recycled. Therefore, in the H 2 S absorption tower, a large consumption of rich CO 2 methanol necessarily results in high energy consumption; secondly, in the CO 2 flashing section of the reabsorption tower, the rich CO 2 methanol directly mixes with the rich-H 2 S methanol flash gas while washing the rich-H 2 S methanol, and itself is deeply contaminated by the rich-H 2 S methanol. The low-concentration H 2 S methanol after mixing is not fully utilized either, but is sent to the thermal regeneration system for regeneration, resulting in high energy consumption; finally, the semi-lean liquid methanol for the CO 2 absorption tower has a relatively high CO 2 content, and its absorption capacity for CO 2 gas is limited, which is not conducive to reducing the overall energy consumption of the cold methanol washing unit. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above technical problems, and provide a syngas purification method for a supporting pulverized coal gasification device and a syngas purification device for a supporting pulverized coal gasification device.

The first stream of CO-rich 2 methanol returns and undergoes the second H 2 S absorption, and the second stream of CO-rich 2 methanol is first cooled and then undergoes CO 2 flash evaporation, and the flashed CO-rich 2 methanol is second cooled and then undergoes a first flash evaporation. The semi-lean methanol is divided into three streams. The first stream of semi-lean methanol is subjected to stripping after the heat exchange, and the low-CO 2 methanol returns and undergoes the CO 2 absorption; the second stream of semi-lean methanol undergoes a second flash evaporation, and the flashed solution contacts the sulfur-containing gas phase and is washed to obtain low-H 2 S methanol returns and undergoes the second H 2 S absorption.

[0010] Preferably, the heat exchange process includes: exchanging heat between the second stream of H-rich 2 S methanol and the first stream of semi-lean methanol to obtain heat-exchanged H-rich 2 S methanol and heat-exchanged semi-lean methanol.

[0011] The second aspect of the present invention provides a syngas purification device for a coal powder gasification device. The device includes an H 2 S absorption tower, a CO 2 absorption tower, an H 2 S flash evaporation tower, a CO 2 flash evaporation tower, a reabsorption tower and a stripping tower, as well as a first cooler and a second cooler;

[0012] Among them, the H 2 S absorption tower is divided into a first H 2 S absorption section and a second H 2 S absorption section from bottom to top. The syngas sequentially enters the first H 2 S absorption section and the second H 2 S absorption section to obtain desulfurized gas and a first H-rich 2 S methanol. The desulfurized gas enters the CO 2 absorption tower, and the obtained CO-rich 2 methanol is divided into two streams. The first stream of CO-rich 2 methanol is recycled and used in the second H 2 S absorption section, and the second stream of CO-rich2 After methanol passes through the first cooler, it enters the CO 2 flash tower, and the flashed CO-rich 2 After methanol passes through the second cooler, it enters the upper part of the reabsorption tower, and the semi-lean methanol is obtained in three streams. The first stream of semi-lean methanol enters the stripping tower after heat exchange, and the low-CO 2 methanol is recycled to the CO 2 absorption tower; the second stream of semi-lean methanol returns to the middle of the reabsorption tower to obtain the flashed solution;

[0013] The first H-rich 2 S methanol is divided into two streams. The first stream of H-rich 2 S methanol is recycled to the first H 2 S absorption section. The second stream of H-rich 2 S methanol enters the H 2 S flash tower after heat exchange, and the flashed H-rich 2 S methanol enters the lower part of the reabsorption tower, and the sulfur-containing gas phase is washed with the flashed solution to obtain the low-H 2 S methanol is recycled to the second H 2 S absorption section.

[0014] Preferably, the device further includes: a heat exchanger connecting the second H 2 S absorption section, the reabsorption tower, the H 2 S flash tower and the stripping tower, which is used to heat-exchange the second stream of H-rich 2 S methanol and the first stream of semi-lean methanol to obtain heat-exchanged H-rich 2 S methanol and heat-exchanged semi-lean methanol.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0016] (1) In the method provided by the present invention, the syngas is sequentially subjected to first H 2 S absorption, second H 2 S absorption, and in combination with part of the first H-rich 2 S methanol (i.e., the first stream of H-rich 2 S methanol) is returned and subjected to first H 2 S absorption, and the low-H 2 S methanol is returned and subjected to second H 2 S absorption, which not only realizes the recycling of low-H 2 S methanol, but also reduces the usage amount of CO-rich 2 methanol and the heat regeneration load of H-rich 2 S methanol; at the same time, it also reduces the usage amount of lean methanol and low-CO 2 methanol in the CO 2 absorption process;

[0017] (2) The method provided by the present invention divides the semi-lean methanol into three streams. The first stream of semi-lean methanol exchanges heat with the second stream of H 2 S methanol and then is stripped to obtain low-CO 2 methanol, in which the molar content of CO 2 is further reduced to 4-7%; the flash solution after the second flash of the second stream of semi-lean methanol is used as a washing solution to wash the sulfur-containing gas phase of the flash-rich H 2 S methanol to generate low-H 2 S methanol;

[0018] (3) The method provided by the present invention returns the low-CO 2 methanol and conducts CO 2 absorption. First, with the improvement of the absorption capacity of the low-CO 2 methanol and the reduction of the circulation volume, the operating cost of the pump can be reduced by about 15%, and the diameter of the CO 2 absorption tower can be reduced by about 5%; second, the low-CO 2 methanol can replace part of the lean methanol, so that the circulation amount of the lean methanol in the CO 2 absorption tower also decreases. The reduction of the lean methanol flow rate will be transmitted to the rich H 2 S methanol, and then the flow rate of the rich H 2 S methanol that needs to be thermally regenerated is reduced, and the energy consumption of the corresponding thermal regeneration system also decreases accordingly.

[0069] The inventors of the present invention have found through research that: the ability of semi-lean liquid methanol to absorb CO 2 mainly depends on its own gas-liquid equilibrium at a certain temperature and pressure. If the concentration of CO 2 dissolved in semi-lean liquid methanol is high, the absorption ability of CO 2 is weak, and vice versa. In the method provided by the present invention, in order to further reduce the CO 2 content in semi-lean liquid and maximize the CO 2 absorption ability of semi-lean liquid, the optimized reabsorption process performs nitrogen stripping on semi-lean liquid methanol again, so that the CO 2 content in semi-lean liquid methanol is further reduced to 4-7%, becoming low-CO 2 methanol. This can produce two positive effects: one is that with the improvement of the absorption ability of low-CO 2 methanol and the reduction of the circulation volume, the operating cost of the pump can be reduced by about 15%, and the cross-sectional area of the CO 2 absorption tower can be reduced by about 5%; the other is that low-CO 2 methanol can replace part of the lean methanol, so that the circulation amount of lean methanol in the CO 2 absorption tower also decreases.
