[0027] The above-mentioned benzene tower flare gas recovery system connects the benzene tower reflux tank 100 with the water cooler 300 through the flare gas outlet pipeline 200, cools the benzene that can be cooled and recovered, and returns it to the benzene tower reflux tank 100 through the reflux pipeline 500, so as to reduce the energy loss of this part of benzene after entering the flare liquid separator tank and then refining. The non-condensable gas cooled by the water cooler 300 is sent to the flare system through the non-condensable gas pipeline 400, and the newly added regulating valve group 410 on the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 is used to control the overall pressure stability of the benzene tower reflux tank 100 and the benzene tower, optimize the operation and reduce the frequency of on-site adjustment.
[0028] In one embodiment, the regulating valve group 410 includes a first gate valve 411, a first regulating valve 412 and a second gate valve 413. A bypass pipeline 420 is provided across the regulating valve group 410, and the bypass pipeline 420 is provided with a bypass gate valve 421. In specific configuration, the first regulating valve 412 is preferably a pressure control regulating valve.
[0029] In one embodiment, a first blind plate 430 , a first one-way valve 440 and a first shower valve 450 are sequentially arranged on the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 and downstream of the regulating valve group 410 .
[0030] In one embodiment, a front gate valve 460 is disposed upstream of the first blind plate 430 , and a rear gate valve 470 is disposed downstream of the first shower valve 450 .

[0033] In one embodiment, the circulating water main pipe 600 is connected to the pipe side inlet 350 through a circulating water supply line 620 ; the circulating water main pipe 600 is connected to the pipe side outlet 340 through a circulating water return line 610 .

[0035] In one embodiment, the flare pipeline 120 is provided with a second leaching valve 123 .
[0036] To further explain the transformation, the new water cooler 300 of the above-mentioned benzene tower flare gas recovery system is equipped with a pipeline from the water cooler 300 to the circulating water main 600. A gate valve is added to each newly added pipeline for control and isolation. The circulating water meets the nearest circulating water main 600. A new flare gas lead-out pipeline 200 is configured in front of the flare valve group of the benzene tower reflux tank 100 and connected to the shell side inlet of the water cooler 300. It should be noted that the original flare pipeline 120 can be selectively removed after the transformation is completed. A new non-condensable gas pipeline 400 is configured from the high point outlet of the shell side of the water cooler 300 and connected to the nearest flare pipeline 1. A regulating valve group 410 is provided on the newly added non-condensable gas pipeline 400 for controlling the pressure of the benzene tower reflux tank 100. At the same time, a three-valve group is provided, including a front gate valve 460, a first blind plate 430, a first non-return valve 440, a first drain valve 450, and a rear gate valve 470 for maintenance isolation; a new water cooler 300 is added, and a pipeline is configured from the low point outlet of the shell side of the water cooler 300 to be connected to the liquid phase inlet pipeline on the tank top of the benzene tower reflux tank 100. It should be noted that the condensate cooled by the water cooler 300 flows to the benzene tower reflux tank 100 by gravity, so there must be enough potential difference between the newly added water cooler 300 and the benzene tower reflux tank 100.
[0037] Before the transformation, the nitrogen replenishment process of the benzene tower reflux tank 100 was closed under normal conditions, and the flare process was opened. The gate valve of the flare process was used to control the pressure of the benzene tower and the reflux tank to be stable. After the transformation, a water cooler 300 was added before the flare pipeline 120 of the benzene tower reflux tank 100. The water cooler 300 was equipped with a circulating water supply pipeline 620 and a circulating water return pipeline 610 as the heat exchanger cold source. The condensate cooled by the water cooler 300 flowed back to the benzene tower reflux tank 100 through the reflux pipeline 500. The non-condensable gas cooled by the water cooler 300 entered the plant flare system through the non-condensable gas pipeline 400. The newly added regulating valve group 410 of the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 was used to control the stability of the benzene tower pressure. At the same time, the boundary valve group and the 8-shaped blind plate were configured on the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 for maintenance isolation.
[0038] In one embodiment, the flare gas stop valve 11, the flare gas drain valve 12, the flare gas blind plate 13 and the flare gas stop valve 14 are sequentially arranged on the flare pipeline 1. Preferably, during the specific transformation, the nearest flare meeting point is selected, and it can be connected to any flare main pipe during the actual implementation. As an example, in this embodiment, the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 is connected to the nearest flare pipeline 1, and the flare pipeline 1 is led out by the gas discharge pipeline. The gas discharge pipeline in this embodiment also includes a fuel gas pipeline 2, and the fuel gas pipeline 2 is sequentially provided with a fuel gas stop valve 21, a fuel gas blind plate 22, a fuel gas one-way valve 23 and a fuel gas stop valve 24.
[0039] See also Figure 2Further, in one embodiment, the flare gas outlet pipeline 200 is provided with a flare gas outlet pipeline stop valve 210, and the return pipeline 500 is provided with a return pipeline stop valve 510. With such a configuration, when the water cooler 300 needs to be repaired, the flare gas outlet pipeline stop valve 210 and the return pipeline stop valve 510 can be closed, and the front gate valve 460 and the rear gate valve 470 on the non-condensable gas pipeline 400 can be closed to cut off the flare gas outlet pipeline 200, the return pipeline 500 and the non-condensable gas pipeline 400, and the benzene tower pressure can be discharged and adjusted by the flare pipeline 120, which makes maintenance more convenient and the system more flexible and reliable.
