Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of absorption treatment of alkane volatile organic compounds, and specifically relates to an absorbent for alkane volatile organic compounds, a preparation method and application thereof, and a method for removing alkane volatile organic compounds. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the emission standards for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have become increasingly strict, and non-methane total hydrocarbon milligram-level emission standards have been implemented in many places. Therefore, the deep recovery technology of VOCs has become a research hotspot in the environmental protection field. Hydrocarbon organic compounds are an important component of VOCs. For hydrocarbon VOCs, especially C2-C4 light hydrocarbons, due to their stable properties, low polarity, difficulty in liquefaction, and difficulty in enrichment, they have always been a key problem in achieving the deep treatment of VOCs.

[0003] At present, the VOCs recovery technologies that achieve milligram-level emissions of VOCs on the market all adopt adsorption combination processes with activated carbon as the adsorbent. However, dust and carbon oxides are generated during the production process of activated carbon; during use, the adsorption heat effect makes the activated carbon bed layer prone to local "temperature runaway" phenomena, posing safety hazards. In addition, the service life of activated carbon is limited, and waste carbon, as hazardous waste, increases the operating cost of enterprises. Therefore, the development of new green VOCs deep recovery technologies has become an inevitable trend in the coordinated treatment of pollution reduction and carbon reduction.

[0004] The absorption method realizes the recovery of gas through the dissolution of the absorbent, and has the advantages of mature process, simple equipment, wide application range, etc. In view of the fact that most VOCs, especially hydrocarbon VOCs, are hydrophobic, gasoline, diesel, or other organic solvents are usually used as absorbents in industry. However, such absorbents often have a high vapor pressure and are extremely volatile during use, and the volatile gas of the absorbent may also belong to VOCs. In industry, the absorption method is generally used as a front-end treatment process and cannot achieve the deep recovery of VOCs.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a new absorbent for alkane volatile organic compounds with a low saturated vapor pressure, high absorption capacity, and good absorption effect. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems of high saturated vapor pressure and poor absorption effect existing in the existing alkane absorbents.
