Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of low-temperature methanol washing technology, specifically to a method for removing acidic gases produced by a coal-water slurry gasification unit and a system for removing acidic gases produced by a coal-water slurry gasification unit. Background Technology

[0002] The syngas produced using coal-water slurry gasification technology contains H2 and CO, which are referred to as effective gases. Syngas also contains a large amount of CO2 and trace amounts of H2S, COS, NH3, HCN, and other components. Acidic gas H2S is generally a poison to the synthesis catalyst and must be removed before the synthesis process.

[0003] In the low-temperature methanol washing process, CO2-rich methanol can be recycled through reduced-pressure flash evaporation, but H2S-containing methanol requires thermal regeneration for recycling, making it the main energy-consuming source of the process. Therefore, improving the utilization efficiency of H2S-containing methanol is crucial for technological innovation. Specifically, this means ensuring that the H2S-containing methanol absorbs the maximum amount of H2S from the syngas before thermal regeneration, thereby increasing the H2S concentration in the H2S-rich methanol and reducing the total amount of H2S-rich methanol and the subsequent thermal regeneration workload. Simultaneously, the design of the medium-pressure flash evaporation process is also critical. It must ensure sufficient recovery of the effective gas, minimize compression work during recovery, and minimize the impact of the washing liquid from the flash evaporation on the flashed liquid.

[0004] CN201110260570.0 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing process. However, this process has several drawbacks. First, in the H2S absorption tower, CO2-rich methanol is used entirely to wash the syngas. This CO2-rich methanol becomes contaminated while absorbing H2S gas, increasing the amount of H2S-rich methanol produced. Furthermore, the H2S-rich methanol requires thermal regeneration before it can be recycled, resulting in high energy consumption. Second, the medium-pressure flash evaporation process is simple, but the compression work consumed during effective gas recovery is significant. Additionally, the CO2 gas flashed from the upper tower of the medium-pressure flash evaporator is sent to the lower tower for washing and absorption with H2S-rich methanol. The washing solution selection is not optimal, and the rich liquid cannot be reused, hindering the reduction of overall energy consumption in the low-temperature methanol washing unit. Third, 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, leading to high energy consumption.

[0005] CN201810994082.4 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing system and a method for providing syngas. This technology reuses the non-shift H2S-rich methanol after non-shift gas washing as washing methanol for the flash vapor produced by medium-pressure flash evaporation of H2S-rich methanol. Therefore, there is still room for technological improvement and energy consumption reduction. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of low utilization efficiency of non-shift H2S-rich methanol after non-shift gas washing and unreasonable setting of medium-pressure flash evaporation process in existing low-temperature methanol washing technology for combined heat and power generation. This invention provides a method for removing acidic gases from combined heat and power generation systems for coal-water slurry gasification units. This method optimizes the two-stage medium-pressure flash evaporation process, saving power consumption in subsequent compression. Optimizing the reabsorption process generates low-H2S methanol, which is then reused, resulting in low overall energy consumption for the low-temperature methanol washing unit. Optimizing the gas stripping process, using low-H2S methanol, second-stage H2S-rich methanol, and third-stage H2S-rich methanol in series to absorb the H2S-rich gas generated from gas stripping, also results in low overall energy consumption.

[0007] The first aspect of this invention provides a method for removing acidic gases from a multi-generation coal-water slurry gasification unit, the method comprising:

[0008] The CO2-rich methanol from the syngas CO2 absorption process is divided into two streams. The first stream of CO2-rich methanol is returned to the syngas H2S absorption process, and the second stream of CO2-rich methanol is subjected to first-stage CO2 flash evaporation and second-stage CO2 flash evaporation in sequence to obtain first-stage CO2 flash vapor, second-stage CO2 flash vapor and second-stage CO2 flash liquid.

[0009] The first H2S-rich methanol from the syngas H2S absorption process is subjected to first-stage H2S flash evaporation and second-stage H2S flash evaporation to obtain first-stage H2S flash vapor, second-stage H2S flash vapor and second-stage H2S flash liquid.

[0010] The secondary CO2 flash liquid is subjected to a first flash evaporation, and the resulting semi-lean methanol is divided into five streams. The fifth stream of semi-lean methanol and the secondary H2S flash liquid are subjected to a second flash evaporation and a third flash evaporation, respectively. The resulting low-H2S methanol and second-rich H2S methanol are contacted with nitrogen gas and stripped. The stripped gas is then washed with the first stream of semi-lean methanol to obtain the third-rich H2S methanol.

[0011] Specifically, the second semi-lean methanol stream is returned to the syngas CO2 absorption process; the third semi-lean methanol stream and primary CO2 flash vapor undergo a second wash; the fourth semi-lean methanol stream and secondary CO2 flash vapor undergo a third wash; the non-shift H2S-rich methanol from the non-shift gas purification process is divided into five streams: the first non-shift H2S-rich methanol stream is returned to the non-shift gas purification process; the second and third non-shift H2S-rich methanol streams are both returned to the syngas H2S absorption process; the fourth non-shift H2S-rich methanol stream and primary H2S flash vapor undergo a fourth wash; and the fifth non-shift H2S-rich methanol stream and secondary H2S flash vapor undergo a fifth wash.

[0012] A second aspect of the present invention provides a multi-generation acid gas removal system for a coal-water slurry gasification unit. The system includes: a non-shift gas scrubbing tower, an H2S absorption tower, a CO2 absorption tower, a medium-pressure flash tower, and a reabsorption tower connected in series. The medium-pressure flash tower is divided from top to bottom into a two-stage CO2 flash section, a first-stage CO2 flash section, a two-stage H2S flash section, and a first-stage H2S flash section. The reabsorption tower is divided from top to bottom into a first flash section, a second flash section, a third flash section, a scrubbing section, and a gas stripping section.

[0013] The H2S absorption tower is used for the H2S absorption process of syngas. The first H2S-rich methanol obtained is sent to the first-stage H2S flash evaporation section for first-stage H2S flash evaporation to obtain first-stage H2S flash vapor and first-stage H2S flash liquid. The second-stage H2S flash evaporation section is connected to the bottom of the first-stage H2S flash evaporation section and is used to perform second-stage H2S flash evaporation on the first-stage H2S flash liquid to obtain second-stage H2S flash vapor and second-stage H2S flash liquid.

[0014] The CO2 absorption tower is used for the synthesis gas CO2 absorption process. The resulting CO2-rich methanol is divided into two streams. The first stream of CO2-rich methanol is returned to the H2S absorption tower, and the second stream of CO2-rich methanol is sent to the lower part of the primary CO2 flash evaporation section for primary CO2 flash evaporation to obtain primary CO2 flash vapor and primary CO2 flash liquid. The secondary CO2 flash evaporation section is connected to the bottom of the primary CO2 flash evaporation section and is used to perform secondary CO2 flash evaporation on the primary CO2 flash liquid to obtain secondary CO2 flash liquid and secondary CO2 flash vapor.

[0015] The first flash section, the second flash section, and the third flash section are connected by a gas riser. The first flash section is used to perform the first flash evaporation of the secondary CO2 flash liquid. The resulting semi-lean methanol is divided into five streams. The fifth stream of semi-lean methanol and the secondary H2S flash liquid are sent to the second flash section and the third flash section respectively for the second flash evaporation and the third flash evaporation, respectively, to obtain low H2S methanol and second H2S rich methanol.

[0016] The washing section and the stripping section are connected by a gas lift hole. The stripping section connects the lower part of the second flash section, the third flash section and the washing section. It is used to contact the low H2S methanol, the second H2S rich methanol and the third H2S rich methanol with nitrogen and perform stripping. The stripped gas is sent to the washing section and is washed with the first semi-lean methanol to obtain the third H2S rich methanol.

[0017] Specifically, the second semi-lean methanol stream is returned to the CO2 absorption tower; the third semi-lean methanol stream is sent to the upper part of the first-stage CO2 flash evaporation section for a second wash with the first-stage CO2 flash vapor; and the fourth semi-lean methanol stream is sent to the upper part of the second-stage CO2 flash evaporation section for a third wash with the second-stage CO2 flash vapor.

[0018] The non-shift gas scrubbing tower is used for non-shift gas purification process. The resulting non-shift H2S-rich methanol is divided into five streams. The first stream of non-shift H2S-rich methanol is returned to the non-shift gas scrubbing tower. The second and third streams of non-shift H2S-rich methanol are returned to the H2S absorption tower. The fourth stream of non-shift H2S-rich methanol is sent to the upper part of the first-stage H2S flash evaporation section for a fourth wash with the first-stage H2S flash vapor. The fifth stream of non-shift H2S-rich methanol is sent to the upper part of the second-stage H2S flash evaporation section for a fifth wash with the second-stage H2S flash vapor.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0020] (1) The method provided by the present invention adopts a two-stage medium-pressure flash evaporation technology. The first stage adopts a higher flash evaporation pressure, and the effective gas flashed out can be directly sent to the second stage of the compressor in the compression process, which reduces the power consumption of the compressor. The second stage adopts a lower flash evaporation pressure to ensure that the effective gas in the first stage CO2 flash liquid and the first stage H2S flash liquid is fully recovered. At the same time, it can reduce the air intake of the first stage cylinder of the compressor in the compression process, and correspondingly reduce the power consumption of the compressor.

[0021] (2) The method provided by the present invention optimizes the medium-pressure flash evaporation process by introducing non-conversion H2S-rich methanol to absorb H2S flash vapor (i.e., the fourth and fifth non-conversion H2S-rich methanol streams absorb the first-stage and second-stage H2S flash vapors respectively), and introduces semi-lean methanol to absorb CO2 flash vapor (i.e., the third and fourth semi-lean methanol streams absorb the first-stage and second-stage CO2 flash vapors respectively). Compared with the prior art, it realizes the separate flash evaporation and separate washing of the second CO2-rich methanol stream and the first H2S-rich methanol stream, avoids the technical problem of CO2 gas being transferred to H2S-rich methanol, and is conducive to reducing the energy consumption of the device.

[0022] (3) The method provided by the present invention divides the non-conversion H2S-rich methanol from the non-conversion gas purification process into five streams. The second and third streams of non-conversion H2S-rich methanol are returned to the synthesis gas H2S absorption process. Compared with the prior art using CO2-rich methanol, the amount of CO2-rich methanol used is reduced while achieving the same washing effect, which is of positive significance for reducing the energy consumption of the low-temperature methanol washing device. At the same time, the fourth and fifth streams of non-conversion H2S-rich methanol are used as washing solvents for H2S flash vapor.

[0023] (4) The method provided by the present invention optimizes the reabsorption process and realizes the absorption of sulfur-containing gas generated by the flash evaporation of the secondary H2S flash liquid by the flash liquid of the fifth semi-lean methanol, but without mixing with the second H2S rich methanol after flash evaporation.

[0024] (5) The method provided by the present invention adopts a three-stage tail gas washing technology. According to the different H2S content in the tail gas, three methanols with different H2S contents are selectively set and washed in order from high to low. Under the premise of ensuring that the tail gas emission meets the standards, the minimum amount of semi-lean methanol is used, thereby reducing the heat regeneration energy consumption of the entire low temperature methanol wash.
