Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of separation technology, and more specifically, to a method for recovering volatile organic compounds from waste gas. Background Technology

[0002] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a class of organic compounds with high vapor pressure and strong volatility, widely generated in industrial processes such as petrochemical plant operation and tank storage. They mainly include aromatics, halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, alkenes, and alkanes. VOCs not only pollute the atmospheric environment and participate in the formation of photochemical smog and fine particulate matter, but some substances also pose carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic risks, seriously endangering human health. Therefore, the efficient recovery of VOCs from petrochemical waste gases has significant environmental and economic value. Traditional VOC recovery from waste gases generally involves absorption, desorption, and condensation to obtain the recovered organic matter. The absorbents used in the absorption process are mainly activated carbon, zeolite, molecular sieves, and activated alumina. However, these absorbents are prone to clogging during use, affecting the absorption rate. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To improve the absorption rate and thus enhance the recovery of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from waste gas, this application provides a method for recovering VOCs from waste gas, employing the following technical solution:

[0004] S1. At a temperature of 20-40℃, the waste gas and absorption solvent are passed into the absorption tower for absorption. The volatile organic compounds in the waste gas are absorbed by the absorption solvent to form purified gas and rich liquid. The rich liquid is collected.

[0005] S2. At a temperature of 80-120℃ and a pressure of 5-30kPa, the rich liquid collected in step S1 is passed into the desorption tower for indirect heating and desorption. Volatile organic compounds in the rich liquid are released to form organic vapor and lean liquid. The organic vapor is collected, condensed, and non-condensable gas and condensate are formed. The condensate is collected to obtain recovered organic matter.

[0006] The absorbent solvent is made from the following raw materials in weight percentages: 25-35% tributylmethylphosphine iodide, 15-25% isopropyltriphenylphosphine iodide, 3-7% (fluoromethyl)tetrafluoroborate triphenylphosphine, 3-7% (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride), and 35-50% alcohol-containing compounds and / or carboxylic acid-containing compounds.

[0007] The method for recovering volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from waste gas disclosed in this application involves absorbing organic solvents from the waste gas using an absorption solvent in an absorption tower, followed by desorption in a desorption tower, and finally condensation to obtain the recovered organic compounds, thus achieving the recovery of VOCs. This method, through the synergistic effect between the absorption solvent raw materials, achieves an absorption rate >95%, demonstrating high absorption efficiency and thereby improving the recovery of VOCs from waste gas, meeting market demands.

[0008] The absorbent solvent of this application simultaneously incorporates tributylmethylphosphine iodide, isopropyltriphenylphosphine iodide, (fluoromethyl)tetrafluoroborate triphenylphosphine, and chlorinated (1-butyl-3-methylimidazole).

These four compounds complement each other and produce a synergistic effect, achieving efficient absorption of various types of volatile organic compounds and improving the absorption rate. Furthermore, alcohol-containing compounds and / or carboxylic acid-containing compounds are added. Alcohol-containing compounds increase the adsorption capacity for water-soluble volatile organic compounds, while carboxylic acid-containing compounds increase the absorption capacity for acidic volatile organic compounds. The selective use of alcohol-containing and carboxylic acid-containing compounds enhances the absorption effect of the absorbent solvent.

[0009] Optionally, the alcohol-containing compound is one or more of ethylene glycol, glycerol, propylene glycol, and butylene glycol; the carboxylic acid-containing compound is one or more of acetylpropionic acid, capric acid, butyric acid, and lactic acid.

In several embodiments, in step S1, the ratio of absorption solvent to waste gas is 4 L / Nm³. 3 It can also be configured to set the absorption solvent to waste gas ratio of 1 L / Nm³ as needed. 3 2L / Nm 3 3L / Nm 3 5L / Nm 3 6L / Nm 3 7L / Nm 3 8L / Nm 3 This applies to, but is not limited to, the listed values; other unlisted values ​​within this range also apply.
