Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coal chemical and new energy coupling technology, and in particular to a methanol synthesis process using an all-titanium-based catalyst that synergistically combines coal gasification and green hydrogen production. Background Technology

[0002] Methanol is an important basic chemical raw material and clean liquid fuel, occupying a core position in the energy and chemical industry. It is widely used in chemical synthesis, fuel substitution, and new energy fields, serving as a key link between coal resources and high-end chemicals and low-carbon energy.

[0003] Chinese patent CN114394883A discloses a near-zero carbon emission methanol production process using pulverized coal waste gasification coupled with green electricity and green hydrogen. This process uses pulverized coal gasification combined with green hydrogen to adjust the hydrogen-carbon ratio of the synthesis gas, eliminating some CO conversion units to achieve energy saving, carbon reduction, and near-zero carbon production. However, this process only focuses on system integration and carbon emission reduction optimization, without involving improvements to the catalyst system. It still uses traditional methanol synthesis catalysts and has not solved the problems of catalyst resistance to sulfur, water, and long lifespan.

[0004] Chinese patent CN2021103041287 discloses a simplified coal-to-methanol system that uses green hydrogen to adjust the carbon-hydrogen ratio. This system directly adjusts the syngas ratio using green hydrogen, eliminating some conversion and air separation units, thus simplifying the process and reducing energy consumption. This solution focuses on process optimization and does not disclose any related technologies for catalyst carrier or component improvement.

[0005] Chinese patent CN120398648A discloses a high-efficiency energy storage and zero-carbon emission technology for the production, storage and transportation of dimethyl ether based on the coupling of green hydrogen and coal gasification, realizing the conversion of syngas into methanol and dimethyl ether. However, its core technology is the co-production of downstream products and zero-carbon energy storage. It does not innovate the methanol synthesis catalyst and still uses conventional copper-zinc-aluminum catalysts, which have common industry problems such as poor low-temperature activity, easy poisoning and short service life.

[0006] In summary, traditional industrial methanol production primarily uses coal gasification as a raw material, producing syngas through coal gasification, which is then synthesized into methanol via catalytic hydrogenation. However, traditional coal-to-methanol processes suffer from problems such as an imbalanced hydrogen-to-carbon ratio in the syngas, high carbon emissions, limited catalyst performance, and a difficulty in simultaneously achieving low carbon emissions and high efficiency. There is an urgent need for an innovative process that can achieve synergistic effects between green hydrogen and coal gasification, possess excellent catalyst performance, and achieve low carbon emissions and high efficiency, thereby driving the transformation and upgrading of the coal chemical industry.

[0007] With the advancement of the "dual carbon" goal, the synergistic production of methanol from green hydrogen and coal-to-gas has become a core technological direction for the low-carbon transformation of coal chemical industry. This approach optimizes the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio and reduces carbon emissions, demonstrating significant industrial value. To this end, the inventors have provided a methanol synthesis process using an all-titanium-based catalyst in synergistic coal-to-gas and green hydrogen production. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the problems of imbalanced hydrogen-to-carbon ratio in syngas, high carbon emissions, limited catalyst performance, and difficulty in balancing low carbon emissions and high efficiency in traditional coal-to-methanol processes, this invention provides a methanol synthesis process using a fully titanium-based catalyst that synergizes coal gasification and green hydrogen. Based on the demand for integrated development of green hydrogen, this invention uses a full range of titanium-based catalysts as the core to construct a green and efficient coal-to-methanol process system that combines coal gasification and green chlorine synergy. This improves the economic efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness of methanol production and fills the technological gap in the field of methanol production through the synergistic use of green hydrogen and coal gasification.

[0009] The present invention provides a methanol synthesis process using an all-titanium-based catalyst with synergistic effects of coal gasification and green hydrogen, which is achieved through the following technical solution: Step 1, Coal gasification pretreatment: The crude coal gasification process involves dust removal, cooling, and preliminary desulfurization to obtain primary crude coal gasification. The crude coal gasification is then subjected to fine desulfurization treatment using a titanium-based fine desulfurization catalyst to obtain pre-processed coal gasification with a COS conversion rate ≥95% and an O2 content ≤10ppm. Simultaneously, deep purification of green hydrogen is carried out, sequentially passing the green hydrogen through a titanium-based low-temperature deoxygenation catalyst for deoxygenation, a deep dehydration adsorbent for dehydration, and a titanium-based CO2 removal adsorption and conversion agent for CO2 removal. The treatment conditions are: temperature 20-80℃, pressure 2.0-5.0 MPa, and space velocity 1000-3000 h⁻¹. -1 The green hydrogen processing capacity is 1000-5000 Nm³. 3 / h, to obtain deeply purified green hydrogen with O2<0.1ppm, H2O<10ppm, and CO2<50ppm; Step 2, Syngas Blending: The pre-produced coal gas from Step 1 is blended with deeply purified green hydrogen in a certain proportion to obtain green hydrogen blended gas. The green hydrogen blending ratio in the green hydrogen blended gas is 5-20%. The green hydrogen blended gas is treated with a titanium-based sulfur-resistant conversion catalyst to obtain syngas through CO conversion. The hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of the syngas is adjusted to 2.0-2.2 to obtain qualified syngas. Step 3, low-pressure catalytic synthesis of methanol: The qualified synthesis gas obtained in step 2 is passed through a titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst to carry out a methanol synthesis reaction to obtain primary methanol. Step 4, methanol separation and purification: The reaction products from Step 3 are sequentially cooled and separated into gas and liquid phases. The separated gas phase is sequentially treated with a titanium-based sulfur recovery catalyst for sulfur recovery and a titanium-based Claus tail gas hydrogenation catalyst for tail gas purification, recovering sulfur and achieving a tail gas SO2 conversion rate of >99% to meet emission standards. The separated liquid phase is purified by distillation to obtain high-purity methanol with a purity of ≥99.9%.

[0010] In step one of this invention, the coal gasification pretreatment involves gasifying coal to obtain crude coal gas. This crude coal gas contains impurities such as dust, tar, COS, H2S, O2, and CO2. First, it undergoes dust removal and cooling to remove dust and tar. Then, it enters a preliminary desulfurization unit to remove most of the H2S. Next, it enters a titanium-based fine desulfurization catalyst bed. The reaction temperature is controlled at 80℃±5℃ and the pressure at 2.0-3.0MPa. Through the low-temperature COS hydrolysis and deep desulfurization effect of the titanium-based fine desulfurization catalyst, COS and trace amounts of O2 and CO2 in the crude coal gas are removed, ensuring a COS conversion rate ≥95% and an O2 content ≤10ppm, providing qualified coal gasification feedstock for subsequent reactions. The titanium-based fine desulfurization catalyst has resistance to hydrothermal deactivation and potassium escape, with a service life >8000h, effectively protecting downstream catalysts from impurity poisoning.

[0011] In step one of this invention, the green hydrogen undergoes deep purification: As a supplementary hydrogen source, the purity of green hydrogen directly affects the efficiency and catalyst lifespan of the subsequent methanol synthesis reaction, thus requiring deep purification. The green hydrogen is sequentially passed through a titanium-based low-temperature deoxygenation catalyst bed, a deep dehydration adsorbent bed, and a titanium-based CO2 removal adsorption and conversion agent bed. The titanium-based low-temperature deoxygenation catalyst is CuO–MnO. x The CeO2 / TiO2 system exhibits excellent low-temperature activity, achieving deep O2 removal without additional heating, reducing the O2 content in green hydrogen to <0.1ppm. The deep dehydration adsorbent has a large adsorption capacity and good regenerability, reducing the H2O content in green hydrogen to <10ppm and can be repeatedly regenerated, reducing operating costs. The titanium-based CO2 removal adsorbent can achieve CO2 removal and partial conversion, reducing the CO2 content in green hydrogen to <50ppm, while converting some CO2 into a usable carbon source, further optimizing the hydrogen-carbon ratio of the synthesis gas, and obtaining purified green hydrogen.

[0012] In step two of this invention, the syngas is blended as follows: the pretreated coal gas from step one is mixed with the purified green hydrogen in a certain proportion, with the green hydrogen blending ratio being 5-20%, preferably 10% (suitable for a 600,000-ton / year coal-to-methanol plant, approximately 180 million Nm³). 3 ( / year of green hydrogen); the mixed gas is then fed into a titanium-based sulfur-resistant shift catalyst bed (K / T205-1 series), with the reaction temperature controlled at 180-220℃ and the pressure at 4.0-6.0MPa, to carry out the CO shift reaction, achieving a CO conversion rate of ≥98%. Simultaneously, the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of the syngas is adjusted to 2.0-2.2 to obtain qualified syngas. This titanium-based sulfur-resistant shift catalyst can withstand a high pressure of 6.0MPa, is adaptable to fluctuations in the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of ±5% after green hydrogen blending, has high operational flexibility, can reduce steam consumption, and achieve energy saving and carbon reduction.

[0013] In step three of this invention, methanol is synthesized under low pressure via catalytic oxidation: the qualified synthesis gas obtained in step two is introduced into a titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst bed, and the reaction temperature is controlled at 220-280℃ and the pressure at 5.0MPa to carry out the methanol synthesis reaction. This titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst does not require an additional protective layer, is resistant to poisoning by trace amounts of O2 and H2O impurities in green hydrogen, and shows no significant decrease in methanol conversion rate under the condition of 5-20% green hydrogen mixing. The space-time yield is increased by 10-15% compared with traditional copper-zinc-aluminum catalysts, and the service life is ≥4 years, which greatly reduces the frequency of catalyst replacement and shutdown losses.

[0014] In step four of this invention, methanol separation and purification involves sequentially cooling and gas-liquid separation of the reaction products from step three. The separated gas phase (mainly containing unreacted H2, CO, CO2, and trace amounts of SO2 and organic sulfur) is passed into a titanium-based sulfur recovery catalyst bed (SL-K01 / K02 / K03). The Claus sulfur recovery reaction is carried out using residual heat from green hydrogen at 80-100℃, adapting to temperature fluctuations of ±20℃. The total sulfur recovery rate is >98.5%, and the organic sulfur hydrolysis rate is 100%. The sulfur-treated tail gas is fed into a titanium-based Claus tail gas hydrogenation catalyst bed (SL-S01 / S02) to carry out SO2 hydrogenation reaction at around 220℃, achieving an SO2 conversion rate of >99% and ensuring that the tail gas meets emission standards. This catalyst is resistant to sulfation and high-temperature hydrothermal processes, adaptable to H2 fluctuations of ±5%, and can use green hydrogen as a supplementary hydrogen source to further reduce carbon emissions.

After dust removal and cooling to 75°C, the crude coal gas undergoes preliminary desulfurization and is then subjected to fine desulfurization treatment in a fixed-bed reactor loaded with the titanium-based fine desulfurization catalyst obtained in Example 1, under conditions of 2.0 MPa pressure, 75°C temperature, and 8000 h⁻¹ space velocity. -1 Under these conditions, pretreated coal gasification with a COS conversion rate of 95.5% and an O2 content of 9 ppm was obtained; Simultaneously, deep purification of green hydrogen was carried out by sequentially passing the green hydrogen through a fixed-bed reactor containing the catalysts obtained in Preparation Example 2, Preparation Example 3, and Preparation Example 4.

Step 2, Syngas Blending: The pre-generated coal gas obtained in Step 1 is blended with deeply purified green hydrogen in a certain proportion, controlling the green hydrogen blending ratio to be 15%. The mixed gas is then subjected to CO conversion treatment in a fixed-bed reactor supported on titanium-based sulfur-resistant shift catalyst K / T205-1, with a reaction temperature of 220℃, a pressure of 4.0MPa, and a space velocity of 8000h⁻¹. -1 This yielded qualified syngas with a CO conversion rate of 98.0% and a hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of 2.0. Step 3, Low-pressure catalytic synthesis: The qualified synthesis gas obtained in Step 2 is passed through a fixed-bed reactor loaded with the titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst obtained in Example 5 to carry out methanol synthesis reaction. The reaction temperature is 250℃, the pressure is 5.0MPa, and the space velocity is 8000h. -1 The methanol single-pass conversion rate was 86%, the methanol selectivity was 98.2%, and the methanol space-time yield was 1.82 g / (mL·h).

[0059] The methanol synthesis process in Example 2 is a 400,000-ton / year coal-to-gas and green hydrogen co-synthesis process for methanol synthesis. The total catalyst investment for the entire process is approximately RMB 16.6 million. The methanol synthesis catalyst has a lifespan of 4 years, and the pre-treatment / purification catalyst has a lifespan of more than 3 years. The average annual catalyst consumption cost is RMB 4.8 million. Steam consumption is reduced by 14% compared to traditional processes, carbon emissions are reduced by 18%, and the unit has been running continuously and stably for more than 8,000 hours without catalyst poisoning or deactivation, fully meeting the design requirements.

[0060] The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that the titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst bed in step 3 was replaced with a catalyst bed prepared by the imported brand Johnson Matthey KATALCO 51-9 catalyst. After 18 months of operation under green hydrogen conditions, the activity significantly decreased to below 75%, the catalyst life was estimated to be <2 years, the average annual amortization cost was about RMB18 million / year, and an additional impurity protection bed was required, increasing the investment by RMB5 million.

[0061] The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that the titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst bed in step 3 is replaced with a catalyst bed prepared by the mainstream domestic copper-zinc-aluminum catalyst (Nanjing Chemical Research Institute C307-M), and the titanium-based sulfur-resistant shift catalyst K / T205-1 is replaced with an Al2O3 supported catalyst. An additional protective bed is required (investment of about RMB 5 million), and the annual catalyst amortization cost is about RMB 10 million / year, which is 38.9% higher than the cost of Example 1. Moreover, the catalyst life is only 2.5 years and needs to be replaced frequently. The CO conversion rate of the sulfur-resistant shift section is only 85.3%, and the steam consumption is 35% higher than the steam consumption of Example 1.

[0062] Performance comparison of all-titanium-based catalyst assemblies for green hydrogen purification: The dedicated titanium-based catalyst combination for green hydrogen purification comprises the titanium-based low-temperature deoxygenation catalyst from Preparation Example 2, the deep dehydration adsorbent from Preparation Example 3, and the titanium-based CO2 removal adsorption and conversion agent from Preparation Example 4. The performance of this catalyst combination was compared with that of a traditional general-purpose catalyst combination (copper-based deoxygenation catalyst + molecular sieve dehydration adsorbent + alkaline CO2 removal catalyst) under the same experimental conditions: temperature 50℃, pressure 3.5MPa, and space velocity 2000h⁻¹. -1 Green hydrogen processing capacity 3000 Nm 3 The raw material, green hydrogen, has a purity of 99.5%, an O2 content of 0.5 ppm, an H2O content of 50 ppm, and a CO2 content of 200 ppm per hour. The test results are shown in Table 1 below. Table 1: Performance Comparison of All-Titanium-Based Catalyst Assemblies for Green Hydrogen Purification and Traditional General-Purpose Catalyst Assemblies

[0063] As shown in Table 1, the purification precision, energy consumption and lifespan of the catalyst combination of the present invention are superior to those of traditional general-purpose catalyst combinations, and it has significant performance advantages. It can effectively meet the needs of deep purification of green hydrogen and is suitable for the process of coal gasification and green hydrogen co-synthesis of methanol.

[0064] Catalyst performance comparison test: The performance of titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst was compared with that of traditional copper-zinc-aluminum methanol synthesis catalyst and conventional titanium-based methanol synthesis catalyst. The test conditions were the same: temperature 250℃, pressure 5.0MPa, space velocity 8000h. -1The experiment involved blending 10% green hydrogen (containing 0.07 ppm O2, 7 ppm H2O, and 42 ppm CO2). The results are shown in Table 2 below. Table 2: Performance comparison of the catalyst of this invention with traditional copper-zinc-aluminum methanol synthesis catalysts and conventional titanium-based methanol synthesis catalysts.

[0065] As shown in Table 2, the catalyst of this invention is significantly superior to traditional copper-zinc-aluminum catalysts and conventional titanium-based catalysts in terms of catalytic efficiency, impurity resistance, and service life. It has outstanding performance advantages and can effectively meet the needs of the coal gasification and green hydrogen co-synthesis of methanol process. It also shows excellent adaptability and economy.

[0066] Catalyst performance testing under different green hydrogen blending ratios: Based on the methanol synthesis conditions of Example 1, the titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalyst from Preparation Example 5 was used to test the catalyst under different green hydrogen blending ratios (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) while maintaining the reaction conditions (temperature 250℃, pressure 5.0 MPa, space velocity 8000 h⁻¹). -1 With the catalyst unchanged, its performance was tested, and the results are shown in Table 3: Table 3: Catalytic performance of titanium-based low-pressure methanol synthesis catalysts with different green hydrogen blending ratios (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%)

[0067] As shown in Table 3, the catalyst of the present invention can maintain stable catalytic performance in the range of 5-20% green hydrogen blending, with no significant decrease in methanol conversion rate. It has strong adaptability and can meet the requirements of coal gasification and green hydrogen co-synthesis methanol processes of different scales and different green hydrogen blending ratios.

[0068] This invention is the first to comprehensively apply titanium-based catalysts to the entire process of methanol production from coal gasification and green hydrogen synergy, covering six major stages: green hydrogen purification, sulfur-resistant conversion, sulfur recovery, tail gas hydrogenation, fine desulfurization, and methanol synthesis, forming a complete technical closed loop and filling a gap in the field. The synergistic effect of each catalyst solves the problems of poor compatibility and insufficient performance when using a single catalyst, achieving deep compatibility between the catalyst system and the process. At the same time, it constructs a dual protection of "process + materials", significantly increasing the difficulty for competitors to circumvent it.

[0069] This invention has significant energy-saving and carbon-reducing effects: the titanium-based catalyst has excellent low-temperature activity (80-220℃), and the sulfur-resistant conversion section can reduce steam consumption by 30-40% (based on a 600,000-ton / year plant, saving approximately 120,000 tons of steam annually); the sulfur recovery unit utilizes the waste heat of green hydrogen at 80-100℃ to replace traditional heating devices, reducing energy consumption by approximately 15%; the tail gas hydrogenation uses green hydrogen as a supplementary hydrogen source to replace traditional fossil hydrogen sources, reducing carbon emissions by approximately 8-12% (based on a 600,000-ton / year plant, reducing carbon emissions by approximately 50,000 tons annually).

[0070] This invention boasts the most favorable life-cycle cost and outstanding commercial value: taking a 600,000-ton / year plant with 10% green hydrogen blending as an example, the total catalyst investment for this invention is approximately RMB 24.9 million (including all catalyst loading), with an average annual amortization of approximately RMB 7.2 million (based on 10-year depreciation), lower than the RMB 18 million / year of imported solutions (green hydrogen operating conditions). It offers superior overall cost-effectiveness and shortens the investment payback period by 3-4 years. Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated through an oxidation-reduction process, restoring its activity to over 95% of its initial activity, further reducing operating costs and enhancing commercial value and patent competitiveness.

[0071] This invention has strong adaptability and broad prospects for promotion: The process route of this invention is clear, the catalyst system is complete, and the operating parameters are stable. It can be directly applied to the green hydrogen coupling retrofit of existing coal-to-methanol plants (retrofit investment of about RMB 80-100 million) or new projects. The retrofit cycle is short (3-6 months), and there is no need for large-scale adjustment of existing equipment. It is in line with the "dual carbon" strategic direction and has significant industrial value and promotion prospects.

[0072] In summary, the methanol synthesis process in this invention uses a full range of titanium-based catalysts as the core to construct a green and efficient coal-to-methanol process system of "coal-to-gas + green chlorine synergy", thereby improving the economy, stability and environmental friendliness of methanol production.

[0073] It should be noted that this specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the technical solution of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
