Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization, and particularly relates to a near-zero-emission fine desulfurization device and method for liquid hydrocarbon caustic sludge. Background Art
[0002] During the production of natural gas in oil and gas fields, most of them have liquid hydrocarbon by-products. For the desulfurization and refining process of liquid hydrocarbons recovered from oil and gas fields, a double-desulfurization process of using MDEA (methyldiethanolamine) amine solution to extract hydrogen sulfide and sodium hydroxide caustic solution to extract mercaptan is generally adopted. The rich amine solution after adsorbing hydrogen sulfide is regenerated by reducing the pressure and heating to 120 - 130 °C. After adding a small amount of sulfonated titanium phthalocyanine cobalt catalyst to the mercaptan-removing caustic solution, it is heated to 50 - 60 °C and sent to the oxidation tower to introduce air for catalytic oxidation. Mercaptan sodium is oxidized to form disulfide and sodium hydroxide, and then the disulfide is removed by sedimentation in the disulfide separation tank and back-extracted with solvent oil to remove the disulfide. The regenerated caustic solution is recycled for liquid hydrocarbon extraction to remove mercaptan. The amine solution and caustic solution extraction equipment are generally packed towers or fiber membrane contactors.
[0003] The above double-desulfurization process can only remove hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan in liquid hydrocarbons. For materials containing carbonyl sulfide, it is difficult to meet the requirements of fine desulfurization of liquid hydrocarbons, and it is only necessary to increase the design of solid hydrolysis and adsorption equipment for removing carbonyl sulfide; the caustic washing to remove mercaptan and the solvent back-extraction process require the use of back-extraction solvents, and acidic impurities such as phenols entrained in the solvents will increase the consumption of caustic solution and the discharge amount of caustic sludge; for liquid hydrocarbons with a high mercaptan content, the mercaptan-removing caustic solution requires a large amount of oxidation air, and carbon dioxide in the air will also increase the consumption of caustic solution and the discharge amount of caustic sludge.
[0004] Therefore, the existing liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization process has problems such as the need for back-extraction solvent conditions, a large amount of caustic solution oxidation tail gas, a large consumption of caustic solution, and a large discharge amount of caustic sludge. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a near-zero-emission fine desulfurization device and method for liquid hydrocarbon caustic sludge. Specifically for liquid hydrocarbons containing sulfur in the forms of hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, mercaptan, etc., an organic sulfur reactor and a compound amine solution oil extraction are used to remove hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide in the liquid hydrocarbon, as well as most of the mercaptan. Then, an organic sulfur reactor and a caustic solution extraction are used to remove the remaining small amount of mercaptan. The regeneration of the mercaptan-removing caustic solution adopts a packed tower air oxidation and nitrogen stripping to remove disulfide, and the regenerated caustic solution is used for liquid hydrocarbon circulating fine desulfurization.

[0051] The present invention also provides a method for precise desulfurization of liquid hydrocarbon caustic sludge with near-zero emission, which adopts the above-mentioned precise desulfurization device for liquid hydrocarbon caustic sludge with near-zero emission, and specifically includes:
[0052] S1. Feed the sulfur-containing liquid hydrocarbon into the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor 1 through the liquid hydrocarbon feed pipe 21, and at the same time feed the lean amine solution into the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor 1 through the lean amine solution pipe 24. The liquid hydrocarbon is subjected to amine-washing desulfurization treatment through the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor 1 and the amine-washing separation tank 2. The lean amine solution is composed of a compound of UDS desulfurizer and MDEA (methyldiethanolamine), in which the mass ratio of the UDS desulfurizer is 5%, the mass ratio of MDEA is 45%, and the remaining components are demineralized water or softened water. The UDS desulfurizer is an alkanolamine compound and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound. The lean amine solution fed into the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor is 60 - 120% of the mass flow rate of the liquid hydrocarbon.
[0053] The sulfur-containing liquid hydrocarbon and the lean amine solution are in full contact in the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor 1. Hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide and most of the mercaptans in the liquid hydrocarbon are absorbed by the compound lean amine solution. The rich amine solution after absorbing sulfides and the liquid hydrocarbon are sedimentationally separated in the amine-washing separation tank 2, and then further thoroughly separated through the deamination coalescence separator 3. The rich amine solution is sent to the amine solution regeneration system by its own pressure to become the lean amine solution. After amine-washing, the hydrogen sulfide removal rate of the liquid hydrocarbon can reach more than 99.99%, the carbonyl sulfide removal rate can reach more than 99%, the mercaptan removal rate can reach more than 80%, and the amine solution entrainment amount in the liquid hydrocarbon does not exceed 200 ppm.
[0054] S2. Feed the liquid hydrocarbon after amine-washing desulfurization into the caustic-washing organic sulfur reactor 4, and at the same time feed the caustic solution into the caustic-washing organic sulfur reactor 4 for further desulfurization treatment through the caustic-washing organic sulfur reactor 4 and the caustic-washing separation tank 5. The liquid hydrocarbon after washing and desulfurization and the caustic solution are in full contact in the caustic-washing organic sulfur reactor 4. The remaining small amount of mercaptans in the liquid hydrocarbon react with sodium hydroxide in the caustic solution to form sodium mercaptide. The rich caustic solution dissolved with sodium mercaptide and the liquid hydrocarbon are sedimentationally separated in the caustic-washing separation tank 5, and then further thoroughly separated through the de-alkali coalescence separator 6. The rich caustic solution is sent to the caustic solution regeneration tower 7 by its own pressure, and the refined liquid hydrocarbon is collected through the refined liquid hydrocarbon pipe 23.
[0055] The mass flow ratio of the caustic solution fed into the caustic-washing organic sulfur reactor 4 to the liquid hydrocarbon is 10 - 50%. The concentration of sodium hydroxide in the caustic solution is not less than 5%, and the temperature of the caustic solution is controlled at 30 - 45°C.
[0056] After two-step desulfurization treatment of the liquid hydrocarbon, the total sulfur can be removed to 10 mg / m 3 Hereinafter, the alkaline water entrainment amount in the liquid hydrocarbon does not exceed 200 ppm.
[0057] S3. The rich caustic solution flowing out of the caustic-washing separation tank 5 is subjected to desulfurization treatment through the caustic solution regeneration tower 7 to control the contents of sodium mercaptide and disulfide in the caustic solution within the set range.
[0058] Before entering the caustic liquor regeneration tower 7, the rich caustic liquor is heated to 50 - 65 °C. Before entering the caustic liquor regeneration tower 7, a mercaptan removal catalyst is introduced into the rich caustic liquor so that the concentration of the mercaptan removal catalyst in the rich caustic liquor is controlled at 100 - 200 ppm. The operating pressure at the top of the caustic liquor regeneration tower is controlled between 0.1 - 0.3 MPa.
[0059] Air is introduced into the air distributor 9 through the air inlet pipe 30 and dispersed into fine bubbles in the air distributor 9, so that it can be evenly distributed in the caustic liquor when the caustic liquor passes through. The volume ratio of the introduced air to the caustic liquor is 10 - 30:1. The bubbles and the caustic liquor flow upward through the oxidation packing zone 8 and come into full contact. Under the action of the mercaptan removal catalyst, sodium mercaptide in the caustic liquor reacts with oxygen in the air to generate sodium hydroxide and disulfide. Sodium hydroxide dissolves in the caustic liquor, part of the disulfide is emulsified in the caustic liquor, and part of the disulfide is carried away with the oxidation tail gas through the tail gas pipe 32.
[0060] After oxidation, the caustic liquor overflows through the full-welded baffle into the stripping zone. Nitrogen for stripping is introduced into the nitrogen distributor 11 through the nitrogen inlet pipe 31 and dispersed into fine bubbles in the nitrogen distributor 11, so that it can be evenly distributed in the caustic liquor when the caustic liquor passes through. The volume ratio of the introduced nitrogen to the caustic liquor is 30 - 90:1. The bubbles pass upward through the stripping packing zone 10 and come into full contact with the caustic liquor. The disulfide in the caustic liquor dissolves in the nitrogen bubbles and is carried away with the tail gas through the tail gas pipe 32.
[0061] The caustic liquor after stripping is cooled to about 40 °C by the caustic liquor cooler 14 and pressurized by the caustic liquor pump 12 for the circulating mercaptan removal of the liquid hydrocarbon. The contents of sodium mercaptide and disulfide in the regenerated caustic liquor can be controlled below 100 ppm to ensure that the regenerated caustic liquor maintains a high mercaptan removal capacity in the long term.
[0062] In the first step of amine washing of the present invention, hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, and most of the mercaptans have been removed. In the second step of caustic washing, only a small part of the mercaptans need to be removed. The amount of air required for the oxidation of the rich caustic liquor is very small, and the consumption of carbon dioxide in the air for the caustic liquor is correspondingly very small. Nitrogen stripping to remove disulfide does not consume the caustic liquor and increase the discharge of caustic sludge. Therefore, the present invention can achieve nearly zero discharge of liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization caustic sludge.
[0063] Example 1
[0064] This example adopts the liquid hydrocarbon caustic sludge nearly zero discharge fine desulfurization device and method provided by the present invention, aiming at the by-product light hydrocarbon recovered liquid hydrocarbon of an oil and gas field company.

Among them, both the amine-washing organic sulfur reactor 1 and the alkali-washing organic sulfur reactor are set at the first level. After amine washing, the hydrogen sulfide content in the liquid hydrocarbon is less than 1 mg / m 3 , the carbonyl sulfide content is less than 1 mg / m 3 , and the total sulfur in the refined liquid hydrocarbon after alkali washing does not exceed 5 mg / m 3 .

[0067] Example 3
[0068] In this example, the near-zero-emission fine desulfurization device and method for liquid hydrocarbon alkali residue provided by the present invention are adopted. For the liquid hydrocarbon recovered from the by-product light hydrocarbon of an oil and gas field company, the scale of the liquefied gas is 130,000 tons / year, and the hydrogen sulfide content in the liquid hydrocarbon is 15,000 - 20,000 mg / m 3 , the carbonyl sulfide content is 20 - 50 mg / m 3 , the mercaptan content is 500 - 800 mg / m 3 , desulfurization is carried out by using the near-zero-emission fine desulfurization device and method for liquid hydrocarbon alkali residue provided by the present invention.
