DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present application provides a dry gas concentration and enrichment device, which can 2+ The heavy hydrocarbons are concentrated and enriched, thereby improving the interpretation capability of complex oil and gas reservoirs. In addition, the present application also provides a method applicable to the above-mentioned concentration and enrichment device.

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the present application provides a dry gas concentration and enrichment device for concentrating and enriching target components in the dry gas, comprising: a kettle, a cold trap 2, a hot trap 3, and a temperature control and adjustment assembly. The kettle comprises a first-stage kettle 1 and a second-stage kettle 24. The outlet of the first-stage kettle 1 can communicate with the inlet of the second-stage kettle 24, so that the second-stage kettle 24 can receive the target components from the first-stage kettle 1; the cold trap 2 is used to condense the target components in the first-stage kettle 1 and the second-stage kettle 24; and the hot trap 3 is used to heat the target components in the first-stage kettle 1 and the second-stage kettle 24.

[0025] More specifically, by setting the minimum temperature, lower temperature limit, and upper temperature limit of the first-stage kettle 1, the target component within the first-stage kettle 1 can be condensed, other components with boiling points below the target component can be discharged, and the target component can be concentrated and enriched. To further remove other impurities in the dry gas, the temperature of the second-stage kettle 24 is set by the temperature control and adjustment assembly based on the boiling point of the target component, the lower temperature limit of the first-stage kettle 1, and the upper temperature limit of the first-stage kettle 1. It can be understood that the temperature of the second-stage kettle 24 is set to be raised within the upper and lower temperature limits of the first-stage kettle 1 to further concentrate and enrich the target component entering the second-stage kettle 24. During this temperature adjustment process, the temperature of the first-stage kettle 1 is adjusted by the temperature control and adjustment assembly driving the first-stage kettle 1 to extend into the cold trap 2 and the hot trap 3 to different lengths, thereby achieving initial concentration and enrichment of the target component. The temperature of the second-stage kettle 24 is adjusted by the temperature control and adjustment assembly driving the second-stage kettle 24 to extend into the cold trap 2 and the hot trap 3 to different lengths, thereby achieving further concentration and enrichment of the target component.

[0026] In summary, the temperature control and adjustment components are used to adjust the length of the first-stage kettle body 1 extending into the cold trap 2 and the hot trap 3, and the length of the second-stage kettle body 24 extending into the cold trap 2 and the hot trap 3, so as to realize the automatic adjustment of the temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24, thereby reducing manual intervention and improving work efficiency. In addition, the device realizes the automatic adjustment of the temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24. 2+ The concentration and enrichment of heavy hydrocarbons improves the interpretation ability of complex oil and gas reservoirs.

[0027] It should be noted that the concentration and enrichment device for dry gas is not only applicable to dry gas, but also to wet gas and other gas components that need to be extracted.

[0028] The outlet of the second-stage kettle 24 can be connected to the inlet of the first-stage kettle 1 so that the target component enriched in the second-stage kettle 24 can be injected into the first-stage kettle 1. With this arrangement, firstly, the target component can be circulated in the first-stage kettle 1 and the second-stage kettle 24, thereby repeatedly concentrating the target component in the dry gas and further improving the concentrated and enriched target component; secondly, the combination of the two kettles can achieve the separation of hydrocarbon components in the dry gas in order from light to heavy when concentrating and enriching a certain target component at a certain time interval; thirdly, the recycling of the cold trap 2 and the hot trap 3 reduces costs; fourthly, different upper and lower temperature limits can be set according to the target component to enable the extraction of any component or monomer in the dry gas, no longer limited to the concentration and separation of fixed components in the dry gas, thereby improving the practicality and versatility of the device.

[0029] It should be noted that the device can ensure that the concentration and enrichment effect of a single kettle body meets the standards under precise temperature control. That is to say, both the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24 can be independently connected to the isotope mass spectrometer 22 to effectively improve the sampling efficiency.

[0030] It should also be noted that when testing ordinary natural gas (wet gas), the test concentration of the target component by the isotope mass spectrometer 22 can be achieved by concentrating and enriching the target component only through the first-stage kettle 1. When testing deep dry gas, the first-stage and second-stage kettles 24 can be used in combination. The second-stage gas storage kettle serves as a transfer station for concentration and enrichment, and multiple cycles of concentration and enrichment operations can be performed when actually needed.

[0031] In addition, the temperature control and adjustment assembly includes: a monitoring component for monitoring the temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1 and the temperature of the second-stage kettle body 24; an actuator for driving the movement of the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24; and a control component for receiving temperature signals fed back by the monitoring component, comparing the temperature values with preset values, and controlling the execution of the actuator or the start and stop of the heat sink 3 or the power output based on the comparison results to maintain the target temperature range. As can be seen, the operating principle of this temperature control and adjustment assembly is simple.

[0032] More specifically, the monitoring component includes a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor. The first temperature sensor is arranged in the first-stage kettle body 1 to monitor the temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1, and the second temperature sensor is arranged in the second-stage kettle body 24 to monitor the temperature of the second-stage kettle body 24. The actuator includes a first push rod 4 and a second push rod 5. The first push rod 4 is used to drive the movement of the first-stage kettle body 1 to adjust the length of the first-stage kettle body 1 extending into the cold well 2 and the hot well 3, and the second push rod 5 is used to drive the movement of the second-stage kettle body 24 to adjust the length of the second-stage kettle body 24 extending into the cold well 2 and the hot well 3. The control component includes a temperature controller. Preferably, the cold well 2 is located at the bottom of the hot well 3. The first push rod 4 drives the first-stage kettle body 1 to move up and down to achieve temperature adjustment of the first-stage kettle body 1, and the second push rod 5 drives the second-stage kettle body 24 to move up and down to achieve temperature adjustment of the second-stage kettle body 24. Such an arrangement makes the structure compact and easy to adjust.

[0033] Among them, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the first temperature sensor is arranged at the bottom of the first-stage kettle body 1, and the second temperature sensor is arranged at the bottom of the second-stage kettle body 24; the first push rod 4 and the second push rod 5 are both electric push rods.

[0034] The first stage kettle body 1 is preferably filled with activated carbon. 2+ The adsorption effect of heavy hydrocarbons is better, which can better fix the adsorbed target components and improve the subsequent concentration, enrichment and separation effects.

[0035] Further, such as Figure 4As shown, the first-stage kettle body 1 includes a fitting 6 that is detachably mounted on the top of the first-stage kettle body 1. When the first-stage kettle body 1 is in operation, the fitting 6 is used to seal the top of the first-stage kettle body 1, thereby forming a closed working space. When the first-stage kettle body 1 is not in operation, the fitting 6 can be removed to clean the interior of the first-stage kettle body 1 and replace the activated carbon inside.

[0036] In addition, it should be noted that Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the air inlet pipe 10 of the first-stage kettle body and the air outlet pipe 11 of the first-stage kettle body can both input or output dry gas into or out of the first-stage kettle body 1 through the matching piece 6.

[0037] It should also be noted that the fitting 6 can be a screw cap or a commonly used sealing structure.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, the dry gas concentration and enrichment device also includes a gas flow controller 7 for monitoring the gas flow rate into and out of the first-stage reactor 1, as well as the gas flow rate into and out of the second-stage reactor 24. Due to the different components of dry gas from different origins and regions, it is difficult to determine the injection volume of the sample gas and the target component content obtained. The addition of the gas flow controller 7 allows for real-time gas monitoring to ensure that the carbon isotope value of the gas entering the isotope mass spectrometer 22 can be accurately determined. This improves the sampling effect.

[0039] It should be noted that cold trap 2 is a closed liquid nitrogen tank, and hot trap 3 is a spiral glass fiber heating tape. Cold trap 2 is located at the bottom of hot trap 3. The closed liquid nitrogen tank enables rapid cooling and effective capture. The closed design effectively prevents outside air or other impurities from entering the system, reducing the risk of sample contamination and ensuring the accuracy of analytical results. Hot trap 3 is a spiral glass fiber heating tape, which increases the contact surface area between the heating tape and the target component, making heat distribution more uniform and contributing to a more efficient desorption process.

[0040] The combination of cold trap 2 and hot trap 3—that is, cold trap 2 is used to capture the target component, while hot trap 3 is responsible for desorbing it in the subsequent step—can significantly improve separation efficiency and is particularly suitable for processing complex gas mixtures.

[0041] In addition, the present application also provides a method suitable for use in a dry gas concentration and enrichment device, the method comprising the following steps: Step 1: connect the outlet of the carrier gas bottle filled with nitrogen or helium to the carrier gas inlet 8 of the dry gas concentration and enrichment device, open the dry gas concentration and enrichment device, and automatically open and close the solenoid valve 9 of the dry gas concentration and enrichment device to exhaust the air in the concentration and enrichment device; Step 2: connect the inlet of the first-stage kettle body 1 to the outlet of the dry gas bottle filled with dry gas, so that the dry gas enters the first-stage kettle body 1; Step 3: set the minimum temperature, upper limit temperature, and lower limit temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1. After the dry gas is completely liquefied at the minimum temperature, set the first-stage kettle body 1 to the upper limit temperature. The time interval for switching between the upper and lower limit temperatures is set, so that the dry gas entering the first-stage kettle body 1 can be quickly condensed and adsorbed by the activated carbon, and then by setting the lower limit temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1, other components with boiling points lower than the target components can be discharged, and by setting the upper limit temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1, the target components can be concentrated and enriched. It should be noted that the time for switching between the upper and lower limit temperatures is set according to demand. It should also be noted that the adjustment of the first-stage kettle body 1 between the upper and lower limit temperatures is achieved by the first push rod 4 driving the upper limit of the first-stage kettle body 1. The downward movement is realized. More specifically, the first push rod 4 drives the first-stage kettle body 1 to move upward to increase the temperature, and the first push rod 4 drives the first-stage kettle body 1 to move downward to decrease the temperature. As for the temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1 that needs to be increased or decreased, it is related to the length of the first-stage kettle body 1 entering the hot trap 3 and the cold trap 2; Step 4, open the electromagnetic valve 9 that can connect the inlet of the second-stage kettle body 24 and the outlet of the first-stage kettle body 1 to input the target component discharged from the first-stage kettle body 1 into the second-stage kettle body 24; Step 5, based on the boiling point, upper limit temperature and lower limit temperature of the target component, heat the second-stage kettle body 24, that is, the first The second push rod 5 drives the second-stage kettle body 24 to move upward to the hot well 3. The length of the second kettle body extending into the hot well 3 is set according to the required temperature to achieve further concentration and enrichment of the target component; Step 6, connect the outlet of the second-stage kettle body 24 with the inlet of the isotope mass spectrometer 22 to input the target component in the second-stage kettle body 24 into the isotope mass spectrometer 22; Step 7, set the enrichment amount of the target component in the isotope mass spectrometer 22, and when the target component reaches the enrichment amount, close the outlet of the second-stage kettle body 24; Step 8, start the isotope mass spectrometer 22 to test the target component.

[0042] It should be noted that when the carrier gas bottle and the dry gas bottle are connected to the concentration and enrichment device, they can be done at the same time, but the concentration and enrichment device and the dry gas bottle must be connected after the gas in the carrier gas bottle has exhausted the air in the device.

[0043] Among them, step 9 is set between step 5 and step 6. In step 9, the outlet of the second-stage kettle body 24 is connected to the inlet of the first-stage kettle body 1 to achieve cyclic concentration and enrichment of the target component. The number of cycles of concentration and enrichment of the target component is set according to demand.

[0044] It should be noted that, when achieving the concentration and enrichment of the target component, the above steps 1-8 may be slightly changed according to the actual situation, but the operation sequence of the first-stage kettle 1 and the second-stage kettle 24 for the concentration and enrichment of the target component remains unchanged.

[0045] Take the enrichment of propane C3 and enrichment of C5~C7 as examples for explanation, and in this example, the device for enriching dry gas includes a touch screen 13 and a housing 12, the touch screen 13 is arranged on the housing 12, and the housing 12 is provided with an air inlet 14 and an air outlet 15 that can be connected to the first-stage kettle body 1, and an air inlet 2 16 and an air outlet 2 17 that can be connected to the second-stage kettle body 24, and a carrier gas inlet 8 is provided on the housing 12, and the carrier gas inlet 8 can be connected to the entire pipeline of the enrichment device to achieve the enrichment of the dry gas. To exhaust the air within the device, and depending on the type of gas entering the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24, the housing 12 is further provided with an injection port 18 and an extraction port 19, which communicate with the first-stage kettle body 1, as well as an injection port 20 and an extraction port 21, which communicate with the second-stage kettle body 24. It should be noted that the functions and connection methods of injection port 18, extraction port 19, injection port 20, and extraction port 21 are similar to those of inlet 14, outlet 15, inlet 26, and outlet 27, respectively, and will not be further described here. Furthermore, to facilitate the movement of the device, a pulley is provided at the bottom of the housing 12, enhancing its practicality.

[0046] It should be noted that when the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24 need to be connected to other pipelines or equipment, a pipeline ferrule joint 23 can be added to complete the connection of the entire pipeline.

[0047] To drain the line (includes steps 1 and 2): The carrier gas bottle is connected to the carrier gas inlet 8, and the dry gas bottle is connected to the gas inlet 14. The carrier gas bottle is opened, and the concentration and enrichment device automatically controls the switch of the solenoid valve 9 to allow the carrier gas to traverse the pipeline and empty the pipeline. The dry gas bottle valve is opened to allow the dry gas to enter the first-stage kettle body 1.

[0048] Concentration and enrichment of C3 (including steps 3 and 4): On touch screen 13, the upper temperature limit of the first-stage reactor 1 is set to -20°C and the lower temperature limit is set to -60°C. The temperature control and adjustment component first lowers the temperature of the first-stage reactor 1 and the second-stage reactor 24 to the minimum temperature (-198°C) to completely liquefy the incoming dry gas. Subsequently, at three-minute intervals, the temperature of the first-stage reactor 1 is sequentially controlled to the lower and upper temperature limits, allowing the C3 to concentrate in the second-stage reactor 24.

[0049] Gasification releases C3 and performs online carbon isotope testing (including steps 5-8): Connect gas outlet 2 17 to isotope mass spectrometer 22. Set the target concentration level to 1 ml on touchscreen 13. The concentration device is programmed to automatically increase the temperature of the second-stage reactor 24 and discharge C3 gas. When the amount of C3 entering the isotope mass spectrometer 22 reaches 1 ml, the system automatically controls solenoid valve 9 to cut off the discharge of the target component from the second-stage reactor 24. The isotope mass spectrometer 22 is then activated to analyze the carbon isotopes in C3.

[0050] Based on steps 1 and 2, concentrate and enrich C5~C7 (including steps 3-5 and 9): On the touch screen 13, the lower limit temperature of the first-stage kettle body 1 is set to 15°C and the upper limit temperature is set to 110°C. The lower limit temperature is used to discharge light hydrocarbons before C5, and the upper limit temperature is used to ensure that C7 can be vaporized and released while heavy hydrocarbons above C8 will not be vaporized and released. The concentration and enrichment device is programmed to automatically switch between the lower limit temperature and the upper limit temperature at intervals of 3 minutes for the first-stage kettle body 1, thereby vaporizing C5~C7 in the first-stage kettle body 1 and concentrating and enriching them in the second-stage kettle body 24. At this time, the gas outlet 2 17 can be connected to the gas inlet 14 through a pipeline, and C5~C7 circulates between the first-stage kettle body 1 and the second-stage kettle body 24. Through temperature control, repeated concentration and enrichment of C5~C7 is achieved to ensure the concentration accuracy of C5~C7.

[0051] C5~C7 release and online carbon isotope testing (including steps 6-8): Connect the second gas outlet 17 to the isotope mass spectrometer 22, set the concentration and enrichment amount of the target component to 3 ml on the touch screen 13, and the concentration and enrichment device monitors the gas flow discharged from the second-stage kettle 24 in real time. When the amount of C5~C7 reaches 3 ml, the system automatically cuts off the discharge of the target component in the second-stage kettle 24, and starts the isotope mass spectrometer 22 to perform carbon isotope testing on C5~C7 stored in the test bin of the isotope mass spectrometer 22.

[0052] After the test is completed, the remaining gas components in the first-stage reactor body 1 can be concentrated and carbon isotope tested in the above order, or can be directly discharged.
