Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical industry, in particular to a waste heat recovery device for methanol synthesis. Background Art

[0002] Methanol is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is a type of inorganic substance, also known as methyl methanol or wood alcohol. Waste heat recovery in the methanol synthesis process refers to the recovery of heat energy from unreacted gases produced during the methanol production process, and then using this heat energy for the next round of methanol synthesis reaction. Through the waste heat recovery device, these unreacted gases are collected and cooled for the next step of heat exchange. Through heat exchange, the heat energy of these gases is transferred to other substances being heated. Finally, the recovered waste heat is used to carry out the methanol synthesis reaction again, forming a closed cycle. This waste heat recovery method can not only effectively utilize the waste gas in the methanol production process, but also improve the methanol yield.

[0003] During the use of the existing waste heat recovery device for methanol synthesis, since the synthesis process of methanol is a highly exothermic process, a large amount of waste heat is generated in the production process. If it cannot be recovered and utilized in a timely and effective manner, the waste heat will be wasted, which in turn leads to low efficiency and poor recovery effect of methanol waste heat, thereby causing waste of energy and waste of heat energy. The waste of heat energy will further lead to environmental pollution, because the release of heat energy will produce greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, causing the gas to have a negative impact on the environment.
