Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of low-temperature methanol washing technology, specifically to a multi-product syngas purification device and a multi-product syngas purification method for a pulverized coal gasification unit. Background Technology

[0002] The syngas produced using pulverized coal gasification technology contains H2 and CO, which are referred to as effective gases. The syngas also contains a large amount of CO2 and trace amounts of H2S, COS, NH3, HCN, and other components. After the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio is adjusted in a shift converter, the H2 and CO become the feedstock gases for synthesizing chemical products such as methanol and ammonia. Acidic gases CO2 and H2S are generally poisons to synthesis catalysts and must be removed before the synthesis process.

[0003] Low-temperature methanol washing technology uses low-temperature methanol as the absorbent solvent to absorb and remove acidic gases such as H2S and CO2 from the synthesis gas, while also removing trace components such as HCN and NH3. In the low-temperature methanol washing process of multi-generation plants, the non-conversion CO2-rich methanol solution is characterized by the absence of H2S gas and low CO2 content, while the non-conversion H2S-rich methanol solution is characterized by low CO2 content and relatively high CO gas content. How to rationally reuse these two rich methanol streams is a key consideration in the design of the low-temperature methanol washing process of multi-generation plants.

[0004] CN201110260570.0 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing process. However, this process has several drawbacks: First, it uses CO2-rich methanol to wash the syngas in the H2S absorption tower, increasing the amount of H2S-rich methanol produced. This H2S-rich methanol requires thermal regeneration before recycling, resulting in high energy consumption. Second, in the CO2 flash evaporation section of the reabsorption tower, the CO2-rich methanol directly mixes with the H2S-rich methanol while washing the flash vapor, becoming contaminated itself. The resulting low-concentration H2S methanol is also not fully utilized, further increasing energy consumption. Third, the tail gas washing setup is inadequate; it does not selectively use methanol with different H2S contents based on the H2S content in the tail gas to reduce the overall thermal regeneration energy consumption of the low-temperature methanol washing process. Fourth, the medium-pressure flash evaporation process is simplistic, using only a single-stage flash evaporation, resulting in low flash vapor pressure and requiring significant compression power for recovery.

[0005] CN201810994082.4 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing system and a method for providing syngas. This technology makes secondary use of non-shift H2S-rich methanol after non-shift gas washing, but it is only used as flash steam washing methanol after medium-pressure flash evaporation of H2S-rich methanol. Its use is not sufficient and efficient, and there is still room for technological improvement and energy consumption reduction. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to overcome the problems in the existing polygeneration low-temperature methanol washing technology, such as the unreasonable process settings of the medium-pressure flash tower and the reabsorption tower, and the unreasonable use of the carbon-rich methanol after washing and absorbing the non-shifted gas. A polygeneration syngas purification device supporting a pulverized coal gasification device and a polygeneration syngas purification method supporting a pulverized coal gasification device are provided. By optimizing the configuration of the two-stage flash process, the non-shifted CO2-rich methanol is used to wash the first-stage CO2 flash gas, the second-stage CO2 flash gas and the first-stage H2S flash gas, and the non-shifted H2S-rich methanol is used to wash the second-stage H2S flash gas, realizing the reasonable use of the non-shifted CO2-rich methanol and the non-shifted H2S-rich methanol; by optimizing the stripping process and performing multi-stage series absorption on the stripping gas generated by the first stripping, it has the characteristics of low comprehensive energy consumption.

[0007] To achieve the above object, in the first aspect of the present invention, a polygeneration syngas purification device supporting a pulverized coal gasification device is provided. The device includes: a non-shifted gas scrubbing tower, an absorption tower, a first-stage medium-pressure flash tower, a second-stage medium-pressure flash tower, a reabsorption tower and a low-carbon methanol stripping tower connected in sequence;

[0008] Among them, the non-shifted gas scrubbing tower is divided into a first purification section, a second purification section and a third purification section from bottom to top, which are respectively used to purify the non-shifted gas in sequence for the first purification, the second purification and the third purification, obtaining pre-purified non-shifted H2S-rich methanol, the non-shifted H2S-rich methanol is divided into two streams, the non-shifted CO2-rich methanol is divided into three streams and purified non-shifted gas; the absorption tower is divided into a first H2S absorption section, a second H2S absorption section, a first CO2 absorption section and a second CO2 absorption section from bottom to top, which are respectively used to perform the first-stage H2S absorption, the second-stage H2S absorption, the first-stage CO2 absorption and the second-stage CO2 absorption on the syngas in sequence, obtaining first-stage H2S-rich methanol, the second-stage H2S-rich methanol is divided into two streams, the first-stage CO2-rich methanol is divided into two streams, the second-stage CO2-rich methanol and purified gas;

[0009] Among them, the first-stage medium-pressure flash tower is divided into a first-stage CO2 flash section and a first-stage H2S flash section from top to bottom; the second-stage medium-pressure flash tower is divided into a second-stage CO2 flash section and a second-stage H2S flash section from top to bottom; the first-stage CO2 flash section is connected to the second-stage CO2 flash section, and is used to perform two-stage CO2 flashing on the second stream of the first-stage CO2-rich methanol, obtaining first-stage CO2 flash gas, second-stage CO2 flash gas and the second-stage CO2 flash liquid divided into two streams; the first-stage H2S flash section is connected to the second-stage H2S flash section, and is used to perform two-stage H2S flashing on the second stream of the second-stage H2S-rich methanol, obtaining first-stage H2S flash gas, second-stage H2S flash gas and the second-stage H2S flash liquid;

[0010] The first and second non-conversion CO2-rich methanol streams are sent to the second H2S absorption section and the second purification section, respectively. The third non-conversion CO2-rich methanol stream is divided into stream a and stream b, which are sent to the upper part of the first-stage H2S flash evaporation section and the upper part of the second-stage CO2 flash evaporation section for first and second washing, respectively. The first and second non-conversion H2S-rich methanol streams are sent to the upper part of the second-stage H2S flash evaporation section and the first purification section, respectively, for third washing and first purification, respectively.

[0011] The upper section of the reabsorption tower is divided into a first flash section, a second flash section, and a third flash section from top to bottom. These sections are used to flash the first secondary CO2 flash liquid, the second secondary CO2 flash liquid, and the secondary H2S flash liquid, respectively, to obtain two streams of semi-lean methanol, low-sulfur methanol, first H2S-rich methanol, and CO2 product gas. The lower section of the reabsorption tower is divided into a washing section and a stripping section from top to bottom. The stripping section connects the upper parts of the second flash section, the third flash section, the washing section, and the secondary H2S flash section. It is used to strip the low-sulfur methanol, first H2S-rich methanol, second H2S-rich methanol, and washed non-conversion H2S-rich methanol, respectively, to obtain the first stripping. The stripped gas is sent to the washing section for a fourth washing with the second stream of semi-lean methanol to obtain the second H2S-rich methanol. The low-carbon methanol stripping tower is used to strip the first stream of semi-lean methanol to obtain the second CO2 absorption section.

[0012] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for purifying syngas produced by a combined coal gasification unit, the method comprising:

[0013] The non-shift gas is subjected to first purification, second purification and third purification in sequence to obtain pre-purified non-shift H2S rich methanol, non-shift H2S rich methanol split into two streams, non-shift CO2 rich methanol split into three streams and purified non-shift gas.

[0014] Syngas is subjected to first-stage H2S absorption, second-stage H2S absorption, first-stage CO2 absorption and second-stage CO2 absorption in sequence to obtain first-stage H2S-rich methanol, second-stage H2S-rich methanol in two streams, first-stage CO2-rich methanol in two streams, second-stage CO2-rich methanol and purified gas.

[0015] The second stream of primary CO2-rich methanol is subjected to two-stage CO2 flash evaporation to obtain primary CO2 flash vapor, secondary CO2 flash vapor, and secondary CO2 flash liquid in two separate streams; the second stream of secondary H2S-rich methanol is subjected to two-stage H2S flash evaporation to obtain primary H2S flash vapor, secondary H2S flash vapor, and secondary H2S flash liquid.

[0016] Specifically, the first and second non-conversion CO2-rich methanol streams are returned to the secondary H2S absorption and secondary purification processes, respectively. The third non-conversion CO2-rich methanol stream is divided into stream a and stream b. Stream a undergoes a first wash with primary CO2 flash vapor and primary H2S flash vapor, while stream b undergoes a second wash with secondary CO2 flash vapor. The first non-conversion H2S-rich methanol stream undergoes a third wash with secondary H2S flash vapor, and the second non-conversion H2S-rich methanol stream is returned to the first purification process.

[0017] The first secondary CO2 flash liquid, the second secondary CO2 flash liquid, and the secondary H2S flash liquid are subjected to first flash evaporation, second flash evaporation, and third flash evaporation, respectively, to obtain two semi-lean methanol streams, low-sulfur methanol, first H2S-rich methanol, and CO2 product gas. The low-sulfur methanol, first H2S-rich methanol, second H2S-rich methanol, and washed non-conversion H2S-rich methanol are then subjected to a first gas stripping. The resulting stripped gas is then washed with the second semi-lean methanol stream in a fourth wash to obtain the second H2S-rich methanol. The first semi-lean methanol stream is subjected to a second gas stripping, and the resulting low-carbon methanol is returned to the secondary CO2 absorption.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0019] (1) The method provided by the present invention adopts a two-stage medium-pressure flash evaporation technology. The first-stage flash evaporation pressure is higher and more effective gas is flashed out. The first-stage flash gas can be directly sent to the second stage of the compressor in the compression process, reducing the power consumption of the compressor. The second-stage flash evaporation pressure is lower, ensuring that the effective gas in the first-stage CO2 flash liquid and the first-stage H2S flash liquid is recovered. At the same time, the intake air volume of the first-stage cylinder of the compressor in the compression process can be reduced, which can also reduce the power consumption of the compressor.

[0020] (2) The method provided by the present invention optimizes the medium-pressure flash evaporation process by introducing non-conversion rich CO2 methanol to wash the primary CO2 flash vapor, primary H2S flash vapor and secondary CO2 flash vapor, and introduces non-conversion rich H2S methanol to wash the secondary H2S flash vapor. The washing liquid and the washed liquid do not mix. Compared with the prior art, this avoids the reduction of the concentration of the secondary CO2 flash liquid and the secondary H2S flash liquid, and can generate a lower temperature through desorption in the reabsorption tower, which is beneficial to reducing the energy consumption of the device.

[0021] (3) The present invention adopts a four-stage tail gas washing technology. According to the different H2S contents in the first tail gas, four different methanol streams with different H2S contents, namely the second semi-lean methanol, low-sulfur methanol, post-washing non-shifted H2S-rich methanol, and the first H2S-rich methanol, are selectively set up and washed in sequence from high to low. On the premise of ensuring that the first tail gas meets the emission standards, the least amount of the second semi-lean methanol is used to reduce the heat regeneration energy consumption of the entire low-temperature methanol washing process;

[0022] (4) The method provided by the present invention optimizes the reabsorption process, enabling the flash liquid obtained by the second flash of the second-stage CO2 flash liquid of the second stream to absorb the sulfur-containing gas phase (such as H2S) generated by the third flash of the second-stage H2S flash liquid, resulting in low-sulfur methanol and creating conditions for the reuse of this low-sulfur methanol.
