TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of high-temperature and high-pressure reaction kettles, and particularly relates to a full-automatic online continuous sampling system and a sampling method. BACKGROUND
[0002] A high-temperature and high-pressure reaction kettle is a commonly used reaction device in the chemical industry. During the reaction process, periodic and timed sampling and analysis of liquid-phase products are important means for monitoring and controlling the reaction process. However, under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, especially in heavy oil hydrogenation reactions, the temperature and pressure can reach 400℃ and 30MPa. To ensure the safety of operating personnel, it is necessary to replace manual sampling with full-automatic sampling.
[0003] The main difficulties in achieving full-automatic online continuous sampling are as follows:
[0004] 1. Residual liquid affecting accuracy: After each sampling, some liquid will be left in the high-pressure reaction kettle and the sampling pipeline outside the kettle. If not effectively removed, the residual liquid will mix into the sample taken next time, resulting in distorted subsequent sampling results.
[0005] 2. Difficulties in processing high-temperature samples: Processing high-temperature samples (such as above 200℃) is challenging. For example, patent CN118731401A discloses a scheme for sampling high-temperature samples using a six-way switching valve. However, the sealing packing of the valve (mostly made of PTFE material) will significantly decrease in sealing performance or even fail at high temperatures above 200℃, posing a risk of leakage and safety hazards to the system.

[0047] Innovations of the application
[0048] 1. Double-stage target purging residual elimination technology: ① The high-pressure backblowing system uses high-pressure gas to accurately backblow the residual liquid in the plug bottom sampling pipe to the reaction kettle, eliminating the residual liquid in the plug bottom sampling pipe. ② The low-pressure displacement system blows clean nitrogen gas to the sample quantitative ring to realize complete displacement of the residual liquid, ensuring that the sampling is not cross-contaminated. ③ The double-system layered operation solves the problems of pipeline retention and quantitative ring residual, and the precision is improved to within ±0.5%.
[0049] 2. Micro-channel cooling technology: ①Integrating high-efficiency cooling modules, achieving millisecond-level temperature reduction when high-temperature samples > 200℃ flow through the sampling ring, avoiding denaturation of heat-sensitive substances. ②Synchronously protecting the sealing material of the six-way valve, prolonging the service life of the key components and reducing the risk of valve body failure caused by high temperature.
[0050] 3. Pressure self-balancing technology: ①High-pressure quantitative tank and reaction kettle pressure interlocking: automatically triggering pressure compensation when sampling, injecting high-pressure inert gas into the kettle to instantaneously balance the pressure loss caused by sampling;
[0051] 4. Anhydrous and anaerobic closed-loop control: full-pipeline nitrogen positive pressure protection: inert gas covers the whole process from the gas source to the sampling outlet, combined with one-way valves (such as B1-A1 circuit) to prevent gas backflow, ensuring that the sample transfer is isolated from water and oxygen throughout the process.
[0052] 5. Dual-valve time-space collaborative control: ①Six-way valve time sequence linkage: through PLC programming to realize the cooperation of six-way switch valve A (high-pressure purging / sampling switching) and six-way switch valve B (low-pressure purging / quantitative reset). ②One-way flow forced path design: the one-way valve between B1-A1 builds an irreversible flow path, eliminating backflow pollution caused by pressure disturbance.
[0053] Summary: Through the coupling of five technologies: dual-stage targeted purging, micro-channel cooling technology, pressure self-balancing, anhydrous and anaerobic closed-loop control, and dual-valve time-space collaborative control, the five core pain points of high-temperature and high-pressure system residue control (precision), sample integrity (temperature), system stability (pressure), environmental sensitivity (water and oxygen), and operation continuity (automation) are overcome, realizing continuous and precise sampling without human intervention.
[0054] Design principle of the present application
[0055] 1. Active removal of residue: ① Use high-pressure backflushing to remove residue from the source insertion bottom tube; use precisely controlled low-pressure purging to remove residue on the sample quantification ring, and ensure the effectiveness of the path through the one-way valve to form a two-stage purging system. Specifically: high-pressure gas passes through six-way switching valve A and reversely blows into the insertion bottom sampling tube of the high-pressure reaction kettle along the path opposite to sampling, so that the high-pressure gas flow completely pushes the residual sample liquid adhering to the inner wall and dead angle of the sampling tube back to the reaction kettle body. The design of the high-pressure quantification tank ensures that there is enough volume and pressure of gas for effective backflushing, overcoming the pressure resistance in the kettle. ② Low-pressure purging to remove residue on the quantification ring: after the sample is transferred from the quantification ring to the sample test tube, the system controls six-way switching valve B to switch to the purging station and access the low-pressure purging gas path (usually low-pressure nitrogen). The low-pressure gas flows through the sample quantification ring and its connecting pipeline. The gas flow completely purges the residual sample liquid remaining in the quantification ring channel and pipe wall and carries it to the downstream sample test tube for collection, ensuring the cleanliness of the quantification ring and the accuracy of the next sampling. ③ Key support: one-way valves are provided in the high-pressure and low-pressure purging circuits to strictly prevent gas backflow, ensuring the uniqueness and effectiveness of the purging path. ④ Precise gas pressure control: the gas source from the nitrogen cylinder is precisely and stably regulated by high-pressure and low-pressure pressure stabilizing valves. The PLC controller can be programmed to set and monitor the pressure value in real time, ensuring that the high-pressure backflushing has enough power to overcome the kettle pressure. ⑤ Pressure balance compensation: the volume of the high-pressure quantification tank is carefully designed and calculated. When high-pressure backflushing is performed, the volume of the gas backflushed into the kettle not only removes the residual liquid, but also basically compensates for the volume (or pressure) of the gas lost in the kettle due to sampling, helping to maintain the stability of the reaction system pressure and reducing the pressure imbalance caused by sampling.
[0056] 2. Rapid cooling of the source: immediately after the sample leaves the reaction kettle, forced cooling is performed to protect the subsequent fragile valve and seal, ensuring sample stability and system reliability. Specifically: ① Set an active cooling device near the outlet of the insertion bottom sampling tube, which is the first passageway for high-temperature material leaving the reaction kettle and entering the sampling system. Use a cooling water jacket to wrap the key pipeline nodes through which the high-temperature sample flows, and use a low-temperature circulator to provide stable and controllable temperature coolant; ② Achieve rapid cooling: the high-temperature sample liquid is cooled to a safe temperature range that the subsequent pipeline, six-way switching valves A / B and quantification ring can withstand within a very short time. ③ Effectively prevent high temperature from causing seal aging, failure and leakage, protect the internal structure of the precision valve from heat deformation or damage, and prolong the service life of the equipment.
[0057] 3. Intelligent process control: rely on PLC controller to realize all valve switching, gas pressure regulation automation, and support user-defined continuous, repeated sampling strategy through programmable logic. Specifically: ① PLC accurately controls the rotation or switching action of six-way switching valve A and B, realizes the automatic switching of different process stages such as sampling, high-pressure back flushing, low-pressure purging, and resetting. PLC controls the opening and closing of high-pressure and low-pressure stabilizing valves according to the preset program or feedback signal, and accurately adjusts the pressure of the purging gas. ②Unattended: once the program is started, the system can run automatically for a set time (several hours to several days) without human intervention to complete multiple continuous sampling.

9. The fully automatic online continuous sampling method according to claim 8, characterized in that: The step one is low-pressure purging before sampling to ensure that there is no water and oxygen in the pipeline, and the specific steps are as follows: 1) B1 and B2 of six-way switch valve B are connected, B3 and B4 are connected, and B5 and B6 are connected; 2) the pressure of the low-pressure pressure stabilizing valve on the low-pressure purging gas path is adjusted to 0.5 MPa by the PLC controller, and then the pneumatic ball valve is opened, and purging is performed for about 5 minutes. At this time, the low-pressure purging gas path reaches the sample constant-volume ring and the sample test tube, and the water and oxygen free state is realized; 3) the pneumatic ball valve is closed after purging is completed; The step two is sampling into the sample constant-volume ring after purging, and the specific steps are as follows: 1) when purging is completed, the low-temperature circulator is opened in advance to cool the cooling water jacket by the PLC controller, and the temperature is adjusted according to the characteristics of the reaction material, and the temperature is controlled between 20-80 degrees; 2) when the temperature of the refrigerant reaches the set temperature, the six-way valve B is switched by 60 degrees by the PLC controller, so that B2 and B3 are connected, B4 and B5 are connected, and B6 and B1 are connected; 3) due to the pressure difference between the kettle and the outside, the liquid sample is pressed out through the bottom sampling tube in the kettle, and then stored in the sample constant-volume ring after instantaneous cooling; at the same time, the pressure of the high-pressure pressure stabilizing valve is adjusted, so that the pressure is greater than the pressure in the high-temperature and high-pressure kettle by 0.5 MPa, so that the high-pressure nitrogen gas is also temporarily stored in the high-pressure constant-volume tank for use; The step three is sampling from the sample constant-volume ring into the sample test tube, and the specific steps are as follows: 1) the six-way switch valve B is switched back by 60 degrees to reset and return to the purging state again, at this time, B1 and B2 are connected, B3 and B4 are connected, and B5 and B6 are connected; 2) the liquid sample in the sample constant-volume ring flows into the sample test tube, and then the pneumatic ball valve is opened to continue purging for about 1 minute; 3) when the residual liquid in the sample constant-volume ring is purged clean, the pneumatic ball valve is closed; The step four is high-pressure purging after sampling, and the specific steps are as follows: 1) the six-way switch valve A is switched by 60 degrees to connect A2 and A3, A4 and A5, and A6 and A1; 2) the six-way switch valve A is switched by 60 degrees to connect A2 and A3, A4 and A5, and A6 and A1; 2) high-pressure gas stored in high-pressure quantitative tank is back-flushed into the kettle through one-way valve, B1 and B2, to realize the purging of the sampling tube with bottom plug, and to compensate the pressure loss in the kettle due to sampling, so as to achieve pressure balance without affecting the continuous reaction; The step five is resetting after sampling, and the details are as follows: After the completion of a sampling and back-flushing process, the six-way switching valve A is rotated back by 60 degrees, A1 and A2 are connected, A3 and A4 are connected, A5 and A6 are connected, and the second test tube is rotated to prepare for the next sampling.
