TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of Claus tail gas regeneration and utilization, in particular to a system and device for Claus tail gas regeneration and utilization. BACKGROUND
[0002] Currently, there are various methods for treating Claus tail gas, each having advantages and disadvantages. The reduction absorption process uses hydrogen reduction to reduce sulfur components and then absorbs them by amine method, which has a complex process, high equipment and operation cost. The oxidation absorption process oxidizes sulfides into SO2 and then absorbs them by solvent, which has high device investment, is prone to side reactions, is difficult to operate and has high cost, and is less applied. The low-temperature Claus process generates sulfur at the sulfur dew point, which has high requirements for reaction conditions and equipment, high investment and operation cost, and is prone to pipeline blockage. The liquid-phase direct oxidation process converts H2S into elemental S using chelated iron solution at normal temperature and low pressure, but has limited treatment capacity, is not suitable for large-scale treatment, and has high operation cost due to frequent replacement of reagents. The Shell Claus tail gas treatment process has high sulfur recovery rate, low emission and strong flexibility, but may have high catalyst cost. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a simple and efficient Claus tail gas regeneration system suitable for large-scale treatment. In addition, in the oxidation reaction of the tail gas, the oxidation layer may have reduced activity with use, and the oxidation layer needs to be replaced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0038] Embodiment: as Figures 1-11As shown, the present application provides a technical solution: a system for Claus tail gas recycling, comprising the following steps:
[0039] S1, first make the Claus tail gas into the multi-fuel incinerator in the tail gas incineration unit 1, and become SO2 after incineration, and the high-temperature process gas out of the incinerator enters the waste heat recovery furnace to produce high-pressure saturated steam;
[0040] S2, the process gas after cooling enters the staged SO reactor in the catalytic oxidation unit 2 for catalytic oxidation reaction, and the special PTIL-WXP series catalyst in the reactor oxidizes SO2 gas into SO3, and one or more bed layers are installed in the catalytic oxidation unit according to the change of the content of the raw material components;
[0041] S3, the process gas enters the acid condensing unit 3, and the sulfuric acid vapor in the process gas is condensed into liquid sulfuric acid when heated in the glass tube heat exchanger with air taken from the environment, and flows into the sulfuric acid condensate collection tank under the action of gravity, and then enters the cracking unit 5 after cooling by the heat exchanger;
[0042] S4, the trace SO2 gas in the process gas out of the glass tube condenser enters the tail gas purification unit 4 for removal, and then the process gas enters the high-efficiency mist eliminator to remove SO3 acid mist in the tail gas, and the tail gas realizes ultra-clean emission better than the most stringent emission index;
[0043] S5, the sulfuric acid produced by the acid condensing unit 3 enters the unique vertical cracking furnace in the cracking unit 5, which cracks the sulfuric acid into SO2 gas, and then is sent into the Claus device condenser after being pressurized by the compressor to produce sulfur or is not cooled and enters the Claus furnace as raw material to produce sulfur.
[0044] The furnace temperature of the incinerator in the tail gas incineration unit 1 is controlled at 800-900℃, and the pressure of the incinerator is controlled at micro-negative pressure, at-1-0KPa.
[0045] By controlling the furnace temperature of the incinerator at 800-900℃, the harmful components in the tail gas can be rapidly oxidized at high temperature, completely decomposed and converted into harmless carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and other substances, thereby achieving the purpose of efficiently treating tail gas and reducing pollutant emissions.
[0046] The outlet of each catalyst bed in the catalytic oxidation unit 2 is equipped with a high-efficiency finned heat exchanger resistant to high-sulfur medium. By arranging the finned heat exchanger, the fin structure increases the heat exchange area and improves the heat exchange efficiency, so that the reaction heat can be quickly taken away, which helps to maintain the stability of the reaction temperature and ensures the efficient performance of the catalytic oxidation reaction. The finned heat exchanger uses high-pressure saturated steam / high-pressure saturated steam water to exchange heat with the process gas to take away the reaction heat. The inlet temperature of the catalyst bed of the reactor is controlled between 380-435℃, the outlet temperature of the reactor is controlled between 270-290℃, and the pressure is controlled at a slight positive pressure.
[0047] By adopting the above technical scheme, the inlet temperature of the catalyst bed of the reactor is controlled between 380-435℃, which provides a suitable active temperature environment for the catalyst. In this temperature range, the catalyst has high activity, which can accelerate the reaction rate, improve the conversion rate and selectivity of the reaction, and make the catalytic oxidation reaction more fully.
[0048] The glass tube heat exchanger in the condensing acid unit 3 is arranged as one or more heat exchange modules according to the raw material, and the glass tube is in the form of a horizontal tube or a vertical tube. A slight negative pressure is maintained on the process gas side of the glass tube condenser to reduce the boiling point of water in the process and take away more water to control the concentration of sulfuric acid. The outlet temperature of the glass tube condenser is controlled between 90-110℃.
[0049] By adopting the above technical scheme, by maintaining a slight negative pressure to take away more water, the concentration of sulfuric acid can be accurately controlled, and the outlet temperature of the glass tube condenser is controlled between 90-110℃, which avoids the adverse effects of excessively high or low temperature on the equipment.
[0050] In the PTIL-CC reactor in the tail gas purification unit 4, the gas is oxidized to SO3 under the action of a low-temperature active catalyst, washed with water to become dilute acid, and then enters the condenser for concentration. The temperature in the reactor is controlled below 80℃.
[0051] By adopting the above technical scheme, the low-temperature active catalyst can maintain high activity at a relatively low temperature. Controlling the temperature below 80℃ helps to maintain the optimal activity state of the catalyst, so that the gas can be efficiently oxidized to SO3, improve the conversion rate and selectivity of the reaction, prolong the service life of the catalyst, and reduce the replacement frequency and cost of the catalyst.
[0052] The cracking temperature in the cracking unit 5 is controlled between 900-1000℃, and the sulfuric acid is cracked into SO2 gas, which is cooled to about 300℃ by a waste heat recovery furnace.
[0053] By adopting the above technical scheme, in this temperature range, the sulfuric acid molecules can obtain sufficient energy for the cracking reaction, so that the sulfuric acid is converted into SO2 gas as completely as possible, the utilization rate of raw materials and the production efficiency are improved, and large-scale industrial production is facilitated.

[0057] By adopting the above technical scheme, the catalyst layer 2603 can be replaced during the operation of the catalytic oxidation unit 2.
[0058] Two first isolation frames 2501 are located at both ends of the oxidation reaction bin 22 and are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the communication bin pipe 23 between the oxidation reaction bin 22 and the communication pipe 24. A second isolation frame 2502 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the communication pipe 24. The inner walls of the first isolation frame 2501 and the second isolation frame 2502 are fixedly provided with two symmetrically distributed first baffles 2505 and second baffles 2506, respectively. A side plate 2507 is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the support 21 near one side of the oxidation reaction bin 22. Two symmetrically distributed pneumatic electromagnetic valves 2508 are fixedly arranged at the top end of the side plate 2507.

[0059] By adopting the above technical scheme, the first air bag 2503 and the second air bag 2504 are expanded or contracted through the cooperation of the electromagnetic valve 2508, the first air bag 2503 and the second air bag 2504, so as to change the process gas flow direction line.
[0060] Two symmetrically distributed transverse plates 2605 are fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the oxidation reaction bin 22. A guide column 2608 corresponding to a guide rod 2607 is fixedly arranged on one side of a sliding plate 2606 close to the transverse plate 2605.

[0061] A drive shaft 2610 is rotatably arranged at the middle part of one side of the oxidation reaction bin 22 close to the guide column 2608. A universal joint 2611 is fixedly arranged on the inner end of the drive shaft 2610. A lead screw 2612 is fixedly arranged on the other end of the universal joint 2611.

[0063] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the door plate 2616 is opened, the sliding frame 2602 can be simultaneously driven to displace, so as to smoothly take out the catalyst layer 2603, thereby reducing the cumbersome operation steps and significantly improving the efficiency of replacing and maintaining the catalyst layer 2603.

[0065] By adopting the technical scheme, the blocking frame 2604 is connected with the sliding frame 2602 through bolts, and the blocking frame 2604 limits the catalyst layer 2603, so that the installation and dismounting process is relatively simple and convenient.
[0066] Working principle: as Figure 1 shown, the Claus tail gas enters the unique multi-fuel incinerator of the tail gas incineration unit 1, becomes SO2 after incineration, the incinerator temperature is controlled at 800-900℃, the incinerator pressure is controlled at micro negative pressure, at -1-0KPa, the high-temperature process gas out of the incinerator enters the waste heat recovery furnace to produce high-pressure saturated steam, the process gas after cooling enters the sectional SO2 reactor in the catalytic oxidation unit 2 to carry out catalytic oxidation reaction, under the action of the PTIL-WXP series catalyst, the SO2 gas is oxidized into SO3, the high-efficiency finned heat exchanger resistant to high-sulfur medium is installed at the outlet of each catalyst bed, the reaction heat is taken away through the heat exchange between the high-pressure saturated steam / high-pressure saturated steam water and the process gas, the reactor catalyst bed inlet temperature is controlled at 380-435℃, the reactor outlet temperature is controlled at 270-290℃, the pressure is controlled at micro positive pressure, then the process gas enters the acid condensation unit 3, the sulfuric acid vapor in the process gas is condensed into liquid sulfuric acid in the glass tube heat exchanger when being heat-exchanged with the air taken from the environment, and flows into the sulfuric acid condensate collection tank under the action of gravity, after cooling through the heat exchanger, enters the cracking unit 5, the sulfuric acid condensate enters the unique vertical cracking furnace in the cracking unit 5, the cracking temperature is controlled at 900-1000℃, the sulfuric acid is cracked into SO2 gas, cooled to about 300℃ through the waste heat recovery furnace, and then pressurized through the compressor and sent into the Claus device condenser to produce sulfur or not cooled to enter the Claus furnace as raw material to produce sulfur;
[0067] The trace SO2 gas in the process gas out of the glass tube condenser in the acid condensation unit 2 enters the tail gas purification unit 4 for removal, in the PTIL-CC reactor, the SO2 gas is oxidized into SO3 under the action of the low-temperature active catalyst, becomes dilute acid after water washing, and enters the condenser for concentration, the temperature in the reactor is controlled below 80℃. Then the process gas enters the high-efficiency demister to remove SO3 acid mist in the tail gas, and the tail gas realizes ultra-clean emission better than the most stringent emission index;
[0068] When the PTIL-WXP series catalyst in the catalytic oxidation unit 2 needs to be replaced due to low activity, as Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the oxidation reaction bin 22 is provided with three upper, middle and lower, need to replace the catalyst layer 2603 in the oxidation reaction bin 22, first control the gas source 2510 to the required replacement of the oxidation reaction bin 22 in the corresponding pneumatic solenoid valve 2508 to provide input gas, such as Figure 6 、 Figure 7 As shown, the initial state of the first air bag 2503 is the original state, and the second air bag 2504 is in the expanded state. The second air bag 2504 is expanded to block the communication pipe 24. Therefore, the communication pipe 24 is in a closed state in the initial state. After the process gas is cooled, it enters from the bottom of the bin pipe 23, passes through the three oxidation reaction bins 22 in turn, and is discharged from the top of the bin pipe 23 to enter the condensation acid unit 3.
[0069] The first air bag 2503 corresponding pneumatic solenoid valve 2508 is opened, and the second air bag 2504 corresponding pneumatic solenoid valve 2508 is closed at the same time. At this time, the gas input by the gas source 2510 enters the first air bag 2503 through the opened pneumatic solenoid valve 2508 and the gas guide pipe 2509. With the continuous injection of gas, the first air bag 2503 is gradually inflated until it blocks the bin pipe 23 connected to both ends of the corresponding oxidation reaction bin 22, thereby blocking the process gas from entering the oxidation reaction bin 22.
[0070] At the same time, the second air bag 2504 corresponding pneumatic solenoid valve 2508 is closed, and the second air bag 2504 is retracted due to its own elastic force. During the retraction process, the internal space of the second air bag 2504 is reduced, forcing the internal gas to be discharged through the corresponding pneumatic solenoid valve 250 outlet. At this time, the process gas does not pass through the oxidation reaction bin 22, but directly enters the corresponding bin pipe 23 through the communication pipe 24, continuing its subsequent flow process.
[0071] Then, manually rotate the handle on the back of the corresponding oxidation reaction chamber 22. The handle drives the lead screw 2612 to rotate in the forward direction via the drive shaft 2610 and universal coupling 2611. The rotation of the lead screw 2612 drives the slide plate 2606 to move under the guidance of the guide post 2608 and guide groove 2614 through the guide block 2613 and guide rod 2607. The movement of the slide plate 2606 drives the door panel 2616 to move synchronously. After the slide plate 2606 moves to the end limit distance, the guide post 2608 is located at the end of the guide groove 2614, and the guide rod 2607 is located at the connection between the guide groove 2614 and the arc groove 2615. As the lead screw 2612 continues to rotate, the guide block 261... 3. Drive the guide rod 2607 into the arc groove 2615, so that the slide plate 2606 drives the door panel 2616 to flip downward around the guide post 2608. During the movement, the guide rod 2607 pulls the sliding frame 2602 out of the oxidation reaction chamber 22 through the connecting rod 2609. After removing the top bolt of the baffle 2604 with a screwdriver, remove the baffle 2604 and the catalyst layer 2603 in sequence.
