Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of chemical engineering technology, and particularly relates to a method and device for recovering waste heat of XS fraction to increase the temperature of light benzene feedstock. Background Art

[0002] The XS fraction usually refers to an intermediate fraction with a certain distillation range and composition separated from a fractionating tower or other separation equipment in a specific process. It generally contains various hydrocarbon compounds and a small amount of impurities, and its specific composition and properties will vary due to factors such as raw material source and process conditions. The temperature of the XS fraction is relatively high, containing a certain amount of thermal energy, which has the value of recovery and utilization.

[0003] Although the existing use of waste heat recovery of XS fraction is relatively common, there are still certain drawbacks: First, most of the existing waste heat recovery of XS fraction relies on a shell-and-tube heat exchanger for heat exchange, with the raw material flowing through the tube side and the XS fraction flowing through the shell side. In this way, although the temperature of the raw material can be raised by using the high temperature of the XS fraction, the high temperature of the XS fraction needs to be cooled by circulating water in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger. Currently, most of the cooling using circulating water is a one-time direct cooling, which not only increases the difficulty of cooling the XS fraction by the shell-and-tube heat exchanger but also extremely easily increases the energy consumption of the circulating water. Second, the light benzene raw material in the existing shell-and-tube heat exchanger needs to be transported out of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger after being heated by the high temperature of the XS fraction. During the transportation process, the heat of the light benzene raw material will be lost to some extent. After the light benzene raw material with lost heat enters the hydrogenation unit, the hydrogenation unit still requires a large amount of heat, which means that the heating furnace needs to consume more raw material gas, and this also reduces the chemical production of the chemical reaction of the raw material gas to a certain extent. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method and device for recovering waste heat of XS fraction to increase the temperature of light benzene feedstock to solve the problems that the existing circulating water used in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger has poor cooling effect and slow cooling speed, which increases the difficulty of cooling the XS fraction to a certain extent and increases the energy consumption of the circulating water, and that the existing light benzene raw material will have heat loss during transportation in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger after heat exchange, the hydrogenation unit still requires a large amount of heat, the heating furnace needs to consume more raw material gas, and thus reduces the chemical production of the chemical reaction of the raw material gas.

[0009] Step 3: After the light benzene raw material exchanges heat with the XS fraction in Step 2, use the heat absorption and heat preservation effect of the heat preservation module to perform heat preservation treatment on the light benzene raw material after heat exchange in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module, so as to minimize the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material.

Water inlet ends 1326 and water outlet ends 1327 are successively provided from left to right on the fronts of the left - hand circulating water cooler 1314, the middle circulating water cooler 1316, and the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318.

[0054] The left - hand connection end 1302 on the upper surface and the right - hand connection end 1303 on the upper surface are welded to the upper heat exchanger 1301. The upper connecting piece 1304 is welded between the upper heat exchanger 1301 and the upper boron nitride ceramic 1305. The middle graphene heat - conducting sheet 1306 is integrally connected to the bottom boron nitride ceramic 1307 and the upper boron nitride ceramic 1305. The bottom connecting piece 1308 is welded between the left - hand heat exchanger 1310 at the bottom and the bottom boron nitride ceramic 1307. The heat - conducting rod 1309 passes through the bottom boron nitride ceramic 1307 and is welded to the middle graphene heat - conducting sheet 1306. The left - hand support base 1311 and the left - hand connection end 1312 at the bottom are welded to the bottom of the left - hand heat exchanger 1310 at the bottom. The left - hand connecting plate 1313 is welded between the left - hand heat exchanger 1310 at the bottom and the left - hand circulating water cooler 1314. The middle connecting plate 1315 is welded between the left - hand circulating water cooler 1314 and the middle circulating water cooler 1316. The right - hand connecting plate 1317 is welded between the middle circulating water cooler 1316 and the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318. The XS fraction electric control valve 1319 is installed at the bottom of the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318 through bolts. The right - hand support base 1320 is welded to the bottom of the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318. An airtight ring 1321 is installed inside the jack. The temperature control machine 1322 is inserted into the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318 through the airtight ring 1321. The PLC temperature controller 1324 and the temperature control machine 1322 are connected through the data line 1323. Baffle plates 1325 are welded inside the left - hand circulating water cooler 1314, the middle circulating water cooler 1316, and the right - hand circulating water cooler 1318, and water inlet ends 1326 and water outlet ends 1327 are welded on the surfaces, completing the assembly.

[0055] During use, after the XS fraction enters the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, it first enters the heat exchanger 1310 at the left end of the bottom and enters the left-side circulating water cooler 1314 through the left-end connecting plate 1313. At this time, the first-stage circulating water cooling is carried out. Then, the XS fraction enters the middle circulating water cooler 1316 through the middle connecting plate 1315. At this time, the second-stage circulating water cooling is carried out. Then, the XS fraction enters the right-side circulating water cooler 1318 through the right-end connecting plate 1317. The temperature controller 1322 detects the temperature of the XS fraction in the right-side circulating water cooler 1318. If the temperature reaches the required value, the third-stage circulating water cooling is not required, and the XS fraction control valve 1319 is opened to allow the XS fraction to enter the XS fraction discharge pipe 19 and then enter the tank body 28. If the temperature of the XS fraction is too high, the third-stage circulating water cooling is started in the right-side circulating water cooler 1318 to reduce the temperature to the desired temperature. When the XS fraction passes through the heat exchanger 1310 at the left end of the bottom, the left-side circulating water cooler 1314, the middle circulating water cooler 1316, and the right-side circulating water cooler 1318, the heat conduction rod 1309 at the bottom of the middle graphene heat conduction sheet 1306 passes through the bottom boron nitride ceramic 1307 and inserts into the XS fraction, conducting the heat in the XS fraction into the middle graphene heat conduction sheet 1306 and then transferring it to the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301 through the upper boron nitride ceramic 1305. Thus, the heat of the XS fraction is transferred to the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301, heating the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301. The water inlet end 1326 and the water outlet end 1327 can be connected to existing water inlet pipes and water outlet pipes, so no detailed description will be given here.

[0056] By setting up the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, after heat exchange, the XS fraction can be cooled by multi-layer and multi-length circulating water to reduce its temperature to the desired temperature. Compared with the existing shell-and-tube heat exchanger that cools the XS fraction with circulating water only once, resulting in poor cooling effect of the XS fraction, increased difficulty in cooling the XS fraction, and higher energy consumption of the circulating water, this device cools the XS fraction through multi-layer and multi-length circulating water in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, achieving a better cooling effect for the XS fraction. To a certain extent, this reduces the difficulty of cooling the XS fraction and also reduces the cooling energy consumption of the circulating water.

[0057] Such as Figure 8As shown, the heat insulation module 14 includes a daylighting mirror 1401. A top connecting iron sheet 1402 is provided at the bottom of the daylighting mirror 1401. A bolt base 1403 is fixedly connected to the surface of the top connecting iron sheet 1402. A bottom arc connecting sleeve 1404 is provided at the bottom of the bolt base 1403. The bottom arc connecting sleeve 1404 is threadedly connected to the bolt base 1403 through a connecting bolt. A black film layer 1405 is provided on the inner wall of the daylighting mirror 1401. An endothermic graphene 1406 is provided on the inner wall of the black film layer 1405. A heat transfer rod 1407 is provided at the bottom of the endothermic graphene 1406. A heat insulation layer 1408 is provided at the bottom of the endothermic graphene 1406. A heat conduction layer 1409 is provided at the bottom of the heat insulation layer 1408. A threaded fastening ring 1410 is threadedly connected to the surface of the connecting bolt.

[0058] The top connecting iron sheet 1402 is integrally connected to the daylighting mirror 1401, and the bolt base 1403 is welded to the top connecting iron sheet 1402. The black film layer 1405 is adhered between the daylighting mirror 1401 and the endothermic graphene 1406. The endothermic graphene 1406 is adhered between the black film layer 1405 and the heat insulation layer 1408. The heat insulation layer 1408 is adhered between the endothermic graphene 1406 and the heat conduction layer 1409. One end of the heat transfer rod 1407 passes through the heat insulation layer 1408 and is welded to the top of the heat conduction layer 1409, and the other end is welded to the bottom of the endothermic graphene 1406. The assembled daylighting mirror 1401 is sleeved on the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, then the bottom arc connecting sleeve 1404 is sleeved on the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, and finally the daylighting mirror 1401 and the bottom arc connecting sleeve 1404 are connected by a connecting bolt. Then the threaded fastening ring 1410 is screwed onto the connecting bolt and tightened to complete the assembly.

[0059] During use, after the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301 exchanges heat with the XS fraction, in order to prevent the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material, at this time, the heat insulation module 14 is installed on the surface of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13. At this time, the daylighting mirror 1401 of the heat insulation module 14 will gather sunlight, and the black film layer 1405 will gather and conduct the heat of the sunlight to the endothermic graphene 1406. At this time, the heat on the endothermic graphene 1406 is conducted to the heat conduction layer 1409 through the heat transfer rod 1407 passing through the heat insulation layer 1408, and the heat on the heat conduction layer 1409 is directly conducted to the surface of the upper heat exchanger 1301 of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13 to provide heat for the upper heat exchanger 1301. The heat insulation layer 1408 can prevent the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301, and at the same time continuously supply heat to the upper heat exchanger 1301 through the heat conduction layer 1409, and the upper heat exchanger 1301 supplies heat to the light benzene raw material to minimize the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material.

[0060] By setting up the heat preservation module 14, after the light benzene raw material of the device is heat-exchanged, heat can be provided to the light benzene raw material during the transmission process, so that the heat of the light benzene raw material can be retained as much as possible. To a certain extent, this can ensure that the light benzene raw material enters the hydrogenation unit 11 with sufficient heat, thereby reducing the use of the raw material gas by the heating furnace 9, and then enabling more raw material gas to be used for production, which increases the output of the products after the chemical reaction to a certain extent.

[0061] The working principle of the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0062] First, the acetic acid tail gas is transported into the pretreatment unit 1, where it is transformed, compressed, and the carbon dioxide is adsorbed and removed, and then enters the hydrogen production unit 16. A very small part enters the air compressor 6 for compression and is stored in the gas storage tank 7 for convenient use in heating the heating furnace 9. The raw material gas in the hydrogen production unit 16 is subjected to pressure swing adsorption again to purify the hydrogen concentration to 99.99%, the hydrogen gas purified for the first time enters the hydrogenation unit 11. The hydrogenation unit 11 purifies and saturates light benzene and hydrogen gas, and the generated BTXS fraction is sent to the pre-distillation unit 21. After the BTXS fraction enters the pre-distillation unit 21, it undergoes slightly positive pressure distillation to form the BT fraction at the top of the column and the XS fraction at the bottom of the column. The XS fraction enters the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13. At this time, the subsequently generated hydrogen gas and light benzene raw materials enter the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13 to exchange heat with the XS fraction. After the XS fraction enters the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, it first enters the bottom left heat exchanger 1310 and enters the left circulating water cooler 1314 through the left connecting plate 1313. At this time, the first circulating water cooling is carried out. Then the XS fraction enters the middle circulating water cooler 1316 through the middle connecting plate 1315. At this time, the second circulating water cooling is carried out. Then the XS fraction enters the right circulating water cooler 1318 through the right connecting plate 1317. The temperature controller 1322 detects the temperature of the XS fraction in the right circulating water cooler 1318. If the temperature reaches the required value, the third circulating water cooling is not required, and the XS fraction electric control valve 1319 is opened to make the XS fraction enter the XS fraction discharge pipe 19 and enter the tank 28. If the temperature of the XS fraction is too high, the third circulating water cooling is started in the right circulating water cooler 1318 to reduce the temperature to the ideal temperature. When the XS fraction passes through the bottom left heat exchanger 1310, the left circulating water cooler 1314, the middle circulating water cooler 1316, and the right circulating water cooler 1318, the heat conduction rod 1309 at the bottom of the middle graphene heat conducting sheet 1306 passes through the bottom boron nitride ceramic 1307 and inserts into the XS fraction, conducting the heat in the XS fraction into the middle graphene heat conducting sheet 1306 and through the upper boron nitride ceramic 1305 into the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301. Thus, the heat of the XS fraction is exchanged with the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301, heating the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301. After the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301 exchanges heat with the XS fraction, in order to prevent the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material, a heat preservation module 14 is installed on the surface of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13 at this time. The light collecting mirror 1401 of the heat preservation module 14 at this time will gather sunlight, and the black film layer 1405 will gather and conduct the heat of the sunlight to the heat absorbing graphene 1406. At this time, the heat on the heat absorbing graphene 1406 is conducted to the heat conducting layer 1409 through the heat transfer rod 1407 passing through the heat preservation layer 1408, and the heat on the heat conducting layer 1409 is directly conducted to the surface of the upper heat exchanger 1301 of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger module 13, providing heat for the upper heat exchanger 1301. The heat preservation layer 1408 can prevent the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material in the upper heat exchanger 1301, and at the same time continuously supply heat to the upper heat exchanger 1301 through the heat conducting layer 1409. The upper heat exchanger 1301 supplies heat to the light benzene raw material to minimize the loss of heat of the light benzene raw material.
