Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing a hollow fiber gas separation membrane for decarbonization of associated gas in oil fields, belonging to the field of separation membrane technology. Background Technology

[0002] Natural gas is an important clean energy source for achieving China's dual-carbon development goals. Associated gas from oil fields refers to natural gas produced simultaneously with crude oil during oil extraction and is part of the oil and gas reservoir. Associated gas contains hydrocarbon gases such as methane and ethane, as well as small amounts of non-hydrocarbon gases such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and nitrogen. However, high carbon dioxide content reduces the heat released during combustion and can even cause flame retardancy issues, affecting its efficiency and value as a fuel. Decarbonization can improve the calorific value of associated gas, making it more suitable for energy utilization standards and better suited for industrial or residential fuel, thus achieving efficient resource utilization.

[0003] To improve the quality of associated gas in oil fields and thus increase economic benefits, carbon dioxide removal from natural gas is essential. There are many methods for associated gas decarbonization, which can be broadly categorized into chemical solvent methods, physical solvent methods, and membrane separation methods. Chemical solvent methods involve contacting an alkaline solution with the acidic components in the associated gas, primarily H2S and CO2, to react and form a compound. The alkaline solution, having absorbed the acidic components, can be regenerated to release these components from the compound. The most representative method in this process is the amine method, which is the most commonly used associated gas decarbonization method and is further subdivided into monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), diethylene glycolamine (DGA), diisopropanolamine (DIPA), and methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) methods. Amine solutions are mainly composed of alkanolamines and water. Physical solvent methods utilize the significant difference in solubility between certain solvents and hydrocarbons, such as H2S and CO2, to remove the acidic components. Because physical solvents have a high solubility for heavy hydrocarbons in associated gas, they are not suitable for associated gas with high heavy hydrocarbon content. Commonly used physical solvent methods include the polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether method, the propylene carbonate method, and the cold methanol method. Physical absorption methods utilize multi-stage flash evaporation technology to regenerate the solvent, requiring no additional heating; the associated gas dehydration occurs simultaneously during the reaction. Membrane separation technology evolved from industrial processes such as liquid separation to gas separation. Its principle is that the components in a gas mixture pass through the separation membrane at different rates under pressure. The filtered gas passes through the membrane module through different diffusion mechanisms, including microporous diffusion and dissolution diffusion. Membrane separation is a physical filtration technology developed and applied at the end of the last century. It removes H2S and CO2 from associated gas through selective permeation of the membrane during the separation process, making it more energy-efficient and lower in consumption.

[0004] However, the membrane materials currently in use (especially polymer membranes) have free volume between polymer chain segments. After gas molecules (such as CO, H2, and heavy hydrocarbons) dissolve, they will insert into the intersegment gaps, causing the polymer network to expand, which leads to swelling of the membrane material, reduced selectivity, and changes in the physical properties of the solution such as viscosity and surface tension. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a method for preparing a hollow fiber gas separation membrane for associated gas decarbonization in oil fields. The method involves the synergistic effect of mixing dianhydrides with sulfone-containing diamines and other diamines, followed by spinning to obtain a hollow fiber gas separation membrane. This optimizes the molecular chain structure and improves the overall performance of the material.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this invention is a method for preparing a hollow fiber gas separation membrane for associated gas decarbonization in oil fields, which is carried out according to the following steps: S1. Under argon protection, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone and diamine are mixed, and then N,N-dimethylacetamide is added as solvent, controlling the solid content to be 15%-35%; S2. After the diamine is completely dissolved, the temperature of the reaction system is lowered to 5 ℃. The dianhydride is added in batches, and the total number of moles of dianhydride and diamine is the same. The mixture is stirred until it is completely dissolved and the solution viscosity is stable, resulting in a uniform and transparent polyamic acid solution. The reaction is continued to be stirred to obtain a polyamic acid prepolymer solution. S3. Add a dehydrating agent and a catalyst to the polyamic acid prepolymer solution to react and generate a polyimide solution; S4. The reaction solution is then poured into methanol as a precipitant to precipitate the polymer. After washing and drying, polyimide solid is obtained. The polyimide solid is then formulated into a casting solution, and hollow fiber gas separation membrane is obtained through a spinning process.

[0007] Preferably, in step S2, the diamine is one or more of m-phenylenediamine, p-phenylenediamine, and 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, and the molar ratio of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone to the diamine is 1:19-3:7.

[0008] Preferably, the dianhydride is hexafluorodianhydride and biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, and the molar ratio of hexafluorodianhydride to biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride is 1:9-9:1.

[0009] Preferably, in step S3, the dehydrating agent is acetic anhydride and the catalyst is 3-methylpyridine.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following technical advantages: This invention prepares polyimide films by mixing dianhydrides and sulfone-containing diamines. Through molecular design, it achieves multi-dimensional optimization of thermal stability, mechanical strength, dielectric properties, and processability, breaking through the performance bottleneck of single-system materials. Its core advantage lies in its ability to flexibly match the needs of different application scenarios (such as the flexibility of flexible electronics, the high-temperature resistance of aerospace, and the low dielectric properties in the communications field) through component control, while also considering cost and environmental adaptability. This represents an important development direction for high-performance polymer film materials. Attached Figure Description

[0060] 3) Weigh 10g of the synthesized polymer and add it to a three-necked flask with a stirrer. Then add 2g of polyethylene glycol, 5mL of isopropanol, 3mL of tetrahydrofuran, 0.5g of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and 40mL of DMF in sequence. Stir to dissolve and prepare a casting solution.

[0061] 4) The prepared casting solution is kept at a constant temperature and allowed to stand under vacuum to remove bubbles. It is then injected into the spinneret at a rate of 50 mL / h using a gear pump. The solution is extruded through the spinneret into a phase inversion tank with water as the coagulation bath to obtain a hollow fiber membrane. The spinning conditions are as follows: DMF content in the spinneret core solution is 80% in water; core solution flow rate is 50 mL / h; coagulation bath temperature is 30℃; washing tank temperature is 50℃; distance between the spinneret and the coagulant is 20 cm; and take-up rate is 20 m / min.

[0062] 5) The prepared hollow fiber membrane was tested for separation performance under simulated oilfield associated gas conditions. The system viscosity was too high and the mixing was uneven. Its CO2 permeability coefficient was 38 Barrer and the CO2 / CH4 selectivity was 30.

[0063] Comparative Example 7 (compared to Example 1) 1) Under argon protection, 2.30 g of MPD was added to a dry, clean flask, followed by 38.7 mL of DMAC solvent and stirred thoroughly. After the diamine was completely dissolved, the reaction temperature was lowered to 5 °C, and 7.99 g of 6FDA and 1.04 g of BPADA (6FDA to BPADA molar ratio of 9:1) were added in portions. Then, 41.65 mL of DMAc was added and dissolved thoroughly, controlling the solid content to approximately 15%. The reaction was stirred for 8 h to form a homogeneous polyamic acid solution.

[0064] 2) After the reaction was complete, acetic anhydride (9.45 mL) and 3-methylpyridine (1.61 mL) were added and reacted for 4 h. After the reaction was complete, the solution was poured into methanol to precipitate, filtered, and then dried under vacuum at 60 °C for 12 h to obtain 6FDA-BPADA-MPD polyimide solid.

[0065] 3) Weigh 10g of the synthesized polymer and add it to a three-necked flask equipped with a stirrer. Then add 2g of polyethylene glycol, 5mL of isopropanol, 3mL of tetrahydrofuran, 0.5g of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and 40mL of DMF in sequence. Heat to 50℃ and stir to dissolve and prepare a casting solution.

[0066] 4) After the prepared casting solution is allowed to stand and kept at a constant temperature, and then degassed under vacuum for 12 hours, it is injected into the spinneret at a rate of 50 mL / h using a gear pump. The solution is then extruded through the spinneret into a phase inversion tank with water as the coagulation bath to obtain a hollow fiber membrane. The spinning conditions are as follows: the proportion of DMF in the spinneret core solution is 80% in water, the core solution flow rate is 50 mL / h, the coagulation bath temperature is 30℃, the washing tank temperature is 50℃, the distance between the spinneret and the coagulant is 20 cm, and the take-up rate is 20 m / min.
