Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ethylene carbonate (EC) production, in particular to a tail gas treatment system. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of ethylene carbonate (EC), tail gas containing ethylene oxide (EO) and a small amount of ethylene carbonate will be produced. In order to ensure green environmental protection and effectively recover ethylene oxide during the production process, the tail gas needs to be treated. Due to the physical and chemical properties of the materials ethylene carbonate and ethylene oxide, specifically, the melting point of ethylene carbonate is 38°C and it is soluble in water; ethylene oxide is a highly toxic carcinogen and is very prone to self-polymerization explosion. The explosion limit is 3-100% (v / v) and it is easily soluble in water. Therefore, the tail gas can be washed with water to recover a small amount of ethylene oxide to ensure that it does not leak, prevent it from polluting the environment, and endanger people's health.
[0003] However, in existing ethylene carbonate production equipment, tail gas treatment usually uses a water washing tower for water washing and absorption. Due to the special properties of ethylene oxide in ethylene carbonate, this results in: when the temperature is too low, ethylene carbonate is easy to crystallize in the equipment or pipeline, blocking the equipment and pipeline after a period of time; when the temperature is too high (45-50°C), it affects the absorption of ethylene oxide. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a tail gas treatment system, which can wash ethylene carbonate with water at a higher temperature and wash ethylene oxide with water at a lower temperature.

[0025] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0026] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the utility model, a tail gas treatment system includes a first water washing tower 100, a second water washing tower 200, a water washing medium pipeline 300, a heat exchanger 400, a first circulation pipeline 500, and a second circulation pipeline 600; the first water washing tower 100 is connected to a tail gas feed pipeline 110, and the bottom of the first water washing tower 100 is connected to an ethylene oxide device 700; the second water washing tower 200 is connected to the top of the first water washing tower 100, and the bottom of the second water washing tower 200 is connected to the ethylene oxide device 700, and the second water washing tower 200 is connected to the top of the first water washing tower 100. The top of the tower is connected to a tail gas incineration pipeline 210; the water washing medium pipeline 300 is connected to the second water washing tower 200 through the second water washing pipeline 800; the heat exchanger 400 is connected to the water washing medium pipeline 300, and the heat exchanger 400 is connected to the first water washing tower 100 through the first water washing pipeline 900; one end of the first circulation pipeline 500 is connected to the bottom of the first water washing tower 100, and the other end is connected to the first water washing pipeline 800; one end of the second circulation pipeline 600 is connected to the bottom of the second water washing tower 200, and the other end is connected to the second water washing pipeline 800.
[0027] The tail gas of the EC synthesis unit enters the first water washing tower 100 through the tail gas feed pipeline 110, and a small amount of ethylene carbonate and a small amount of ethylene oxide are washed away by the first water washing tower 100. The material then enters the second water washing tower 200 to absorb ethylene oxide. Finally, the tail gas after absorption is sent to incineration from the top of the second water washing tower 200 through the tail gas incineration pipeline 210. The deionized water or analytical water at 25°C is heated to 50°C by the heat exchanger 400 through the water washing medium pipeline 300 and then sent to the first water washing tower 100 through the first circulation pipeline 500 for circulation absorption and then sent to the ethylene oxide device 700. The deionized water or analytical water at 25°C is directly sent to the second water washing tower 200, and is sent to the ethylene oxide device 700 after circulation absorption through the second circulation pipeline 600. The operation cycle is carried out, and the ethylene carbonate and ethylene oxide are removed by water washing.
[0028] The tail gas treatment system is provided with a series of water washing towers and a heat exchanger 400, and the water washing medium entering the first water washing tower 100 is heated in a small range. The 25°C water washing medium is heated to 50°C by the water washing medium pipeline 300 through the heat exchanger 400 and then sent to the first water washing tower 100, which to a certain extent avoids the problem of too low temperature in the tail gas absorption of the production of ethylene carbonate, resulting in ethylene carbonate crystallization blocking the pipeline and equipment. The 25°C water washing medium is directly sent to the second water washing tower 200, which solves the problem of too high temperature in the tail gas absorption of the production of ethylene carbonate and low ethylene oxide absorption efficiency. The ethylene oxide in the tail gas of the production of ethylene carbonate is effectively recovered to avoid environmental pollution.
[0029] It should be noted that the above-mentioned tail gas treatment system is connected in series with two water washing towers, and desalted water and / or analytical water are introduced. One stream is heated by a heat exchanger 400, and the other stream directly enters the water washing tower. In this way, ethylene carbonate can be washed at a higher temperature and ethylene oxide can be washed at a lower temperature. The gas after washing is sent to the incineration system, so that the ethylene oxide in the tail gas can be recovered to avoid environmental pollution.
