DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] The following describes the implementation of the present invention through specific examples. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementations. The details in the present invention can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be noted that the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0030] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention, and thus the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation.

In addition, if the terms "first" and "second" appear, they are only used for description and distinction purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0032] In the atmospheric and vacuum device, the impure water in the crude oil needs to be heated and gasified to be removed in order to obtain a product of qualified purity. When the water is heated and gasified, it needs to absorb a large amount of heat energy, which increases the energy consumption of the atmospheric and vacuum device, and also increases the gas phase load of the atmospheric and vacuum device, causing fluctuations in the operation of the atmospheric and vacuum device. Moreover, the salt in the crude oil will corrode the equipment in the atmospheric and vacuum device, shortening the service life of the atmospheric and vacuum device. The atmospheric and vacuum device for processing crude oil provided by the utility model can increase the contact time between the demulsifier and the crude oil, increase the depth of crude oil dehydration and desalination, fully reduce the water and salt content in the crude oil, and is conducive to reducing the operating energy consumption of the atmospheric and vacuum device, maintaining the stable operation of the atmospheric and vacuum device and its downstream devices, and extending the service life of the atmospheric and vacuum device and its downstream devices.
[0033] See also Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides a normal and low pressure device for processing crude oil, for example, including a crude oil component tank 11, a mixer 21, a crude oil blending storage tank 24, an intermediate crude oil tank area 29, an electric desalter 34, a normal and low pressure device 36, a first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 and a second demulsifier filling pipeline 35, etc. Among them, the crude oil component tank 11, the mixer 21, the crude oil blending storage tank 24, the intermediate crude oil tank area 29, the electric desalter 34 and the normal and low pressure device 36 are connected in sequence, the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 is arranged at the inlet of the mixer 21, and the second demulsifier filling pipeline 35 is arranged at the inlet of the electric desalter 34. The atmospheric and vacuum device for processing crude oil provided by the utility model can increase the contact time between crude oil and demulsifier through the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23, the mixer 21, the crude oil blending storage tank 24 and the intermediate crude oil tank area 29, so that the water content and salt in the crude oil can be fully settled and removed in the crude oil blending storage tank 24 and the intermediate crude oil tank area 29, thereby reducing the water content and salt content in the crude oil, reducing the operating energy consumption of the atmospheric and vacuum device 36, maintaining the stable operation of the atmospheric and vacuum device 36 and its downstream devices, and extending the service life of the atmospheric and vacuum device 36 and its downstream devices.
[0034] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the raw material of the atmospheric and vacuum device is stored in the crude oil component tank 11. Among them, the crude oil component tank 11, for example, contains at least one of high-quality crude oil, medium-quality crude oil and low-quality crude oil. In this embodiment, the crude oil component tank 11, for example, contains high-quality crude oil, medium-quality crude oil and low-quality crude oil at the same time. By adding low-quality crude oil to high-quality crude oil and medium-quality crude oil and mixing them, and then using the mixed crude oil as the raw material of the atmospheric and vacuum device, the utilization rate of the low-quality crude oil can be improved. However, if the proportion of low-quality crude oil in the mixed crude oil is too high, the quality of the mixed crude oil will deteriorate, thereby affecting the operation of the atmospheric and vacuum device and the purity of the product. At this time, the mixed crude oil will no longer be suitable as a raw material for the atmospheric and vacuum device.
[0035] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the inlet of the mixer 21 is connected to the outlet of the crude oil component tank 11. The mixer 21 is, for example, a static mixer or a dynamic mixer. The mixed crude oil in the crude oil component tank 11 enters the mixer 21, and the mixed crude oil is mixed to obtain a uniform mixed crude oil, so as to improve the utilization rate of inferior crude oil in the mixed crude oil. The inlet and outlet of the mixer 21 are each provided with at least one valve, for example, to control whether the crude oil flows into the mixer 21. In this embodiment, the inlet and outlet of the mixer 21 are each provided with a valve, and the valve is, for example, an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve, a manual valve, etc.
[0036] See also Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a blending pump 13 is provided between the mixer 21 and the crude oil component tank 11 to increase the pressure of the crude oil at the outlet of the crude oil component tank 11 so that the crude oil can flow smoothly into the mixer 21. In this embodiment, the blending pump 13 is, for example, a centrifugal pump, an axial flow pump, a diaphragm pump or a reciprocating pump, and the flow rate of the blending pump 13 is, for example, 800-1500m 3 / h, the head of the blending pump 13 is, for example, 40-80m.
[0037] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the outlet of the crude oil component tank 11 and the inlet of the blending pump 13 are connected by setting a blending pump main line 14 to connect the crude oil component tank 11 and the blending pump 13. Among them, at least one valve is set on the blending pump main line 14, for example, to control whether the crude oil is connected between the crude oil component tank 11 and the blending pump 13. In this embodiment, four valves are set on the blending pump main line 14, for example, and the valves include at least one of an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve, and a manual valve. If only one valve is set on the blending pump main line 14, when the valve fails, it is impossible to control whether the crude oil is connected between the crude oil component tank 11 and the blending pump 13 through the valve. Therefore, by setting multiple valves, when one valve fails, other valves can be used to control whether the crude oil is connected between the crude oil component tank 11 and the blending pump 13, so as to improve the operational flexibility of the atmospheric and vacuum device.
[0038] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a first filter 12 is further provided on the blending pump main line 14, and the first filter 12 filters the crude oil at the outlet of the crude oil component tank 11. By providing the first filter 12, mechanical impurities in the crude oil at the outlet of the crude oil component tank 11 can be filtered out, so as to avoid mechanical impurities clogging subsequent pipelines and equipment, and ensure the smooth operation of the atmospheric and vacuum device.
[0039] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the atmospheric and vacuum device further includes a blending pump auxiliary line 15, and the blending pump auxiliary line 15 is connected to the inlet of the first filter 12 and the outlet of the blending pump 13. Among them, the blending pump 13 and the first filter 12 are connected in series and connected in parallel with the blending pump auxiliary line 15. When the blending pump 13 fails and cannot transport crude oil, the blending pump auxiliary line 15 is set as a backup, so that the crude oil in the crude oil component tank 11 can continue to be transported to subsequent equipment to increase the stability of the atmospheric and vacuum device operation. Among them, at least one valve is set on the blending pump auxiliary line 15, for example, to control the circulation of crude oil in the blending pump auxiliary line 15. In this embodiment, a valve is set on the blending pump auxiliary line 15, for example, the valve is an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve, a manual valve, etc.
[0040] See also Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the blending tank inlet line 20 is provided to connect the outlet of the blending pump 13 and the inlet of the mixer 21, so as to connect the blending pump 13 and the mixer 21. Among them, at least one valve is provided on the blending tank inlet line 20, for example, to control the circulation of crude oil in the blending tank inlet line 20. In this embodiment, four valves are provided on the blending tank inlet line 20, for example. Among them, one valve is provided on the side of the blending tank inlet line 20 close to the blending pump 13, and the valve is, for example, a check valve, to prevent the crude oil in the blending tank inlet line 20 from flowing back to the blending pump 13, so as to protect the blending pump 13. The remaining three valves are provided on the side of the check valve away from the blending pump 13, and by providing multiple valves, when one valve fails, the circulation of crude oil in the blending tank inlet line 20 can be controlled by other valves, thereby improving the operational flexibility of the atmospheric and vacuum pressure reducing device. In this embodiment, the valve is, for example, an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve, and a manual valve.
[0041] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a blending flowmeter 19 is further provided on the blending inlet tank line 20 to adjust the flow rate of the crude oil flowing in the blending inlet tank line 20. In this embodiment, the blending flowmeter 19 is, for example, an orifice flowmeter, an electromagnetic flowmeter, a turbine flowmeter, a venturi flowmeter or a rotor flowmeter.
[0042] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the atmospheric and vacuum device further includes a reflux main line 16, which connects the outlet of the blending pump auxiliary line 15 and the crude oil component tank 11. Since the blending pump 13 has a minimum restricted flow rate, if the flow rate demand of the subsequent atmospheric and vacuum equipment 36 for crude oil is still less than the minimum restricted flow rate of the blending pump 13, by setting the reflux main line 16, the blending pump 13 can be stably operated at the minimum restricted flow rate, and the reflux main line 16 refluxes part of the crude oil at the outlet of the blending pump 13 to the crude oil component tank 11, and sends the remaining crude oil that meets the flow rate demand of the atmospheric and vacuum equipment 36 to the subsequent atmospheric and vacuum equipment 36, thereby protecting the blending pump 13. In this embodiment, at least one valve is provided on the reflux main line 16, for example, to control whether the crude oil flows in the reflux main line 16. In this embodiment, six valves are provided on the reflux main line 16, such as electric valves, solenoid valves, pneumatic valves and manual valves. By providing multiple valves, when one valve fails, the circulation of crude oil in the reflux main line 16 can be controlled by other valves, thereby improving the operational flexibility of the atmospheric and vacuum device. Moreover, in this embodiment, the drain valve 18 is provided between two valves of the reflux main line 16. When the atmospheric and vacuum device is shut down for maintenance, the crude oil in the reflux main line 16 can be discharged through the drain valve 18, so as to facilitate the maintenance of valves and pipelines.
[0043] See also Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the atmospheric and vacuum device further includes a reflux secondary line 17, and the reflux secondary line 17 connects any two points on the reflux main line 16. In this embodiment, the reflux secondary line 17 and the reflux main line 16 have two connections. When the reflux main line 16 between the two connections cannot flow smoothly, by setting the reflux secondary line 17 as a backup for the reflux main line 16, the crude oil at the outlet of the blending pump 13 can continue to flow back to the crude oil component tank 11, so as to improve the operating stability of the atmospheric and vacuum device. Among them, at least one valve is set on the reflux secondary line 17, for example, to control whether the crude oil flows in the reflux secondary line 17. In this embodiment, a valve is set on the reflux secondary line 17, and the valve is, for example, an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve or a manual valve.
[0044] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present utility model, the atmospheric and vacuum device further includes a mixer sub-line 22, and the mixer sub-line 22 connects the inlet and outlet of the mixer 21. If the mixer 21, the valve at the outlet of the mixer 21, or the valve at the inlet of the mixer 21 fails, resulting in the crude oil before and after the mixer 21 not being able to flow smoothly in the pipeline to the subsequent crude oil blending storage tank 24, by setting the mixer sub-line 22 as a backup, the crude oil before the inlet of the mixer 21 can continue to be transported to the outlet of the mixer 21, thereby improving the operating stability of the atmospheric and vacuum device.
[0045] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 is provided at the inlet of the mixer 21. In this embodiment, the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 is connected to the blending tank inlet line 20 at the inlet of the mixer 21. Among them, the demulsifier includes, for example, at least one of a polymer demulsifier, a surfactant demulsifier, an electrolyte demulsifier, a biological demulsifier, and a reverse demulsifier. By providing the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 at the inlet of the mixer 21, the contact time between the demulsifier and the crude oil can be increased, and the depth of dehydration and desalination in the crude oil can be increased. In this embodiment, the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23 includes, for example, a filling pump 231, a demulsifier tank 232, a calibration column 233, a filling branch line, and a pressure measuring instrument 236.
[0046] See also Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the inlet of the filling pump 231 inputs the demulsifier, and the outlet of the filling pump 231 is connected to the demulsifier tank 232. By setting the filling pump 231, the pressure of the demulsifier is increased, so that the demulsifier can be smoothly added to the demulsifier tank 232. Among them, the filling pump 231 is, for example, a centrifugal pump, an axial flow pump, a diaphragm pump or a reciprocating pump, and is also, for example, a pneumatic diaphragm pump. Among them, at least one valve is set between the filling pump 231 and the demulsifier tank 232, so as to control the flow of the demulsifier between the filling pump 231 and the demulsifier tank 232. In this embodiment, the valve is, for example, an electric valve, a solenoid valve, a pneumatic valve or a manual valve.
[0047] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the inlet of the demulsifier tank 232 is connected to the outlet of the filling pump 231 for storing the demulsifier.

Through the manhole 2321, the operator can smoothly enter the demulsifier tank 232 for maintenance work. In this embodiment, the flame arrester 2322 is, for example, arranged on the demulsifier tank 232. Since the demulsifier is a hazardous chemical, the flame arrester 2322 is arranged to prevent the heat and flame outside the demulsifier tank 232 from propagating to the inside of the demulsifier tank 232, thereby improving the safety of the constant pressure reduction device. Among them, the flame arrester 2322 is, for example, a flame arrester of an anti-explosion type or a flame arrester of an anti-detonation type. In this embodiment, the liquid level measuring instrument 2323 is, for example, disposed on the demulsifier tank 232, and is used to measure the liquid level of the demulsifier stored in the demulsifier tank 232, so as to remind the operator to replenish the demulsifier in time.

[0048] See also Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the inlet of the filling branch line is connected to the outlet of the demulsifier tank 232, and the outlet of the filling branch line is connected to the inlet of the mixer 21. Among them, there is at least one filling branch line, for example, and when there are multiple filling branches, the multiple filling branches are connected in parallel. In this embodiment, there are two filling branches, for example, the two filling branches include a first filling branch line 234 and a second filling branch line 235, etc. The first filling branch line 234 and the second filling branch line 235 are arranged in parallel, and one end of the first filling branch line 234 and the second filling branch line 235 in parallel is connected to the outlet of the demulsifier tank 232, and the other end of the parallel connection is connected to the inlet of the mixer 21. By setting two filling branches, when one filling branch line fails and cannot transmit the demulsifier, the demulsifier can continue to be transmitted through the other filling branch line, thereby improving the operating stability of the constant pressure reduction device. Moreover, by using two filling branches, the efficiency of injecting demulsifier into crude oil can be improved.
[0049] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, each filling branch line includes, for example, a filling pump, a valve, or a pressure gauge, and each filling branch line may be the same or different. In this embodiment, each filling branch line is, for example, the same, so when there are multiple filling branches, the filling pump, valve, or pressure gauge are respectively arranged on multiple filling branches. In this embodiment, the first filling branch line 234 and the second filling branch line 235 are exactly the same, so the filling branch line is described by taking the first filling branch line 234 as an example. In this embodiment, the first filling branch line 234 includes, for example, a first filling pump 2341, a valve, and a pressure gauge. Among them, the first filling pump 2341 is, for example, arranged on the first filling branch line 234 to increase the demulsifier pressure at the outlet of the demulsifier tank 232 so that the demulsifier can flow smoothly into the mixer 21.

In this embodiment, there are multiple filling branches, and the calibration column 233 is arranged between the multiple filling branches and the demulsifier tank 232. By setting the calibration column 233, the total instantaneous amount of demulsifiers transmitted in the multiple filling branches, that is, the instantaneous amount of demulsifiers transmitted in the first demulsifier filling pipeline 23, can be measured to facilitate the calculation of the usage of the demulsifier. Among them, the calibration column 233 is, for example, a static calibration column, a dynamic calibration column, a bucket-type calibration column, or a gravity-type calibration column.
[0053] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, after multiple filling branches are connected in parallel, a valve and a pressure measuring instrument 236 are set between the inlet of the mixer 21.
