Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of chemical engineering technologies, and in particular to a conversion method applicable to a high carbon monoxide content. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the world industry in recent years, the demand for oil and natural gas has been continuously increasing. In order to address the problem of energy resource shortage, chemical projects centered on clean coal gasification technologies have been vigorously developed. Among them, chemical projects based on coal energy are the main development direction of clean coal technologies. The development and large-scale industrial application of technologies for producing olefins from coal, coal-to-gas, and coal-to-diesel will break the technical boundaries between traditional coal chemical industries and petrochemical enterprises.
[0003] The CO conversion unit is an important part of the subsequent purification stage in the pulverized coal gasification process and is used to process the raw coal gas generated by the pulverized coal gasification device. Currently, most equipment adopts an advanced and mature medium-temperature shift series low-temperature shift sulfur-tolerant conversion process, in which CO and water vapor generated during the gasification process are converted into H2 and CO2 through a conversion catalyst.
[0004] U.S. Patent No. 6,033,634 discloses a plate-type high-temperature converter, which has a conversion reaction chamber filled with a high-temperature conversion catalyst; a cooling chamber with fillers to promote heat transfer, a cooling gas introduced into the cooling chamber, and a partition separating the conversion reaction chamber and the cooling chamber. The conversion reaction chamber has a light gas chamber separated by a plate-type partition composed of a porous plate and a palladium membrane permeable to hydrogen. Therefore, only the hydrogen generated in the conversion reaction chamber can enter the hydrogen chamber through the hydrogen permeable membrane.
[0005] CN1461730A discloses a carbon monoxide conversion process and a reactor. The process steps include: introducing the raw gas into the reactor tube of the reaction unit, the reactor tube having a fixed bed of a conversion catalyst located in the reaction zone; contacting the water raw gas with the catalyst under conversion reaction conditions that can effectively react carbon monoxide with water vapor to generate hydrogen; the cooling medium having a falling film form flowing along the outer shell side of the reactor tube, cooling the reaction through indirect heat exchange by the cooling medium, and removing the heated cooling medium from the falling film, so that the hydrogen generated by the conversion reaction reaches the permeation zone through a hydrogen selection membrane; withdrawing the hydrogen from the permeation zone and discharging the raw gas depleted of carbon monoxide from the reaction zone.
[0006] As an important section after coal chemical gasification, the CO conversion process has a mature process plan. Currently, most of them adopt two technologies: isothermal conversion and adiabatic conversion.
[0007] Gases such as coal gas, calcium carbide furnace tail gas, ferroalloy tail gas, and methanol purge gas contain a large amount of CO and impurities. Taking the large amount of tail gas generated during the production process of ferroalloy reduction electric furnace as an example, the effective fuel components such as CO, H2, and CH4 in the tail gas account for about 80% of the gas volume, mainly CO, and the calorific value is 2100 - 2400 kcal / Nm³. When carbon monoxide, especially high-concentration carbon monoxide, undergoes a shift reaction, a large amount of heat is released, resulting in a high hot spot temperature in the catalyst bed layer, and thus reducing the service life of the catalyst. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a shift method applicable to high carbon monoxide content.

[0011] The primary shift gas is divided into two parts. The first part of the primary shift gas is mixed with steam and the second part of the raw material gas and then undergoes a secondary shift reaction to obtain the secondary shift gas;
[0012] The second part of the primary shift gas is mixed with the secondary shift gas and enters the post-treatment system to obtain the shifted product gas.

[0014] Further, the volume ratio of the second part of the primary shift gas to the first part of the primary shift gas is 1:(0 - 1.0), preferably 1:(0.2 - 0.5).
[0015] Further, the primary and secondary shift reaction furnaces adopt axial beds. The primary shift reaction and the secondary shift reaction are respectively carried out under the catalysis of a catalyst.

The different activity copper oxide catalysts in the present invention can be conventional CuO catalysts obtained by loading CuO on carriers such as alumina and silica, and their activities are different only due to the different contents of CuO.
[0017] Further, based on the mass of the catalyst in the primary shift reaction, the feed space velocity of the primary shift reaction is 1000-2000 h -1 ; based on the mass of the catalyst in the secondary shift reaction, the feed space velocity of the secondary shift reaction is 1000-3000 -1 .
[0018] Further, a steam inlet is provided at the junction of the outer walls of the primary shift reaction furnace and the secondary shift reaction furnace corresponding to the loading of two different performance catalysts.
[0019] Further, in the raw material gas: the molar content of sulfide is less than 0.05 ppm, the molar content of chloride is less than 0.01 ppm, the molar content of arsenide is less than 0.01 ppm, and the molar content of oxygen is less than 0.02%.
[0020] Further, the inlet temperature of the primary isothermal shift reaction is 190-200 °C, preferably 195-200 °C, and the shift reaction pressure is 1.0-3.5 MPa, preferably 1.5-2.5 MPa.
[0021] Further, the inlet temperature of the secondary isothermal shift reaction is 190-200 °C, preferably 190-195 °C, and the shift reaction pressure is 1.0-3.5 MPa, preferably 1.5-2.5 MPa.
[0022] Further, the method further includes pre-treating the raw material gas before the primary shift reaction, and the pre-treatment includes desulfurization, dechlorination, dearsenication, deoxidation and preheating.
[0023] Further, the method further includes post-treating the secondary shift gas after the secondary shift reaction to obtain a shifted product gas, and the post-treatment includes cooling, gas-liquid separation and carbon dioxide removal.
[0024] Further, the raw material gas is derived from one or more mixtures of coal gas, calcium carbide furnace tail gas, ferroalloy tail gas or methanol purge gas.
[0025] The above technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0026] An embodiment of the present invention provides a conversion method applicable to high carbon monoxide content. The present invention designs a process scheme from the perspective of reaction mechanism. By loading conversion catalysts with different CuO contents and assisting with different amounts of steam, the progress of the reaction is controlled, expanding the reaction from a point to a surface, thereby effectively controlling the heat release of the reaction, and further effectively controlling the hot spot temperature of the catalyst bed, avoiding sintering of the catalyst at high temperatures. Therefore, the present invention is particularly applicable to the conversion of raw gas containing high concentrations of carbon monoxide. Specifically:
[0027] 1) By loading conversion catalysts with different CuO contents, the reaction is expanded from a point to a surface, thus avoiding the concentrated reaction of the catalyst at a certain point, resulting in heat concentration.
[0028] 2) At the junction of the outer walls of the primary conversion reaction furnace and the secondary conversion reaction furnace corresponding to the loading of two different performance catalysts, there is an inlet for adding steam, which can effectively control the amount of steam added and control the progress of the reaction.
[0029] Thus, the heat release of the reaction is effectively controlled, and further the hot spot temperature of the catalyst bed is effectively controlled, avoiding sintering of the catalyst at high temperatures.
[0030] 3) Designing a process scheme from the perspective of reaction mechanism can be applicable to a mixture of one or more of raw gas from coal gas, calcium carbide furnace tail gas, ferroalloy tail gas or methanol purge gas, meeting the requirements for the conversion of raw gas with high carbon monoxide content.
