Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of methanol to olefins, and specifically relates to a flue gas dust removal device used in the methanol to olefins industry. Background Art
[0002] While methanol generates ethylene, propylene and other main products in the reactor under the action of the catalyst, about 1.3-1.8% of the methanol in the feed will be converted into coke and attached to the catalyst, causing the catalyst to be deactivated. In order to ensure the continuous progress of the reaction process, the deactivated catalyst is sent to the regenerator for coke regeneration to restore its activity, and the restored catalyst is returned to the reactor to continue the reaction. The catalyst continuously completes the process of deactivation and regeneration in the reactor and the regenerator.
[0003] The regenerator of the methanol to olefins unit is used to burn the catalyst deactivated in the methanol reaction process under the action of the main wind. Since the methanol to olefins reaction process has the characteristics of shape-selective catalysis, the coke on the catalyst is generally converted into carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by adopting an oxygen-poor incomplete regeneration method. The catalyst still retains part of the coke and returns to the reactor to continue the reaction. The regenerated flue gas formed by the incomplete combustion of the coke on the catalyst in the regenerator is sent to the dust removal facility for treatment after oxygen-enriched combustion in the CO incinerator and then meets the emission standards.
[0004] The methanol to olefins regeneration process is carried out in a fluidized bed. The catalyst is separated by primary, secondary and tertiary cyclone separators in the regenerator. Due to the limitations of the cyclone separators, catalyst fine powder smaller than 5μm is inevitably entrained by the flue gas into the subsequent system during the regeneration process. With the stringent requirements for environmental emissions, it has become increasingly urgent to add dust removal facilities to treat the flue gas to meet emission standards.
[0005] At present, the wet method is used to remove dust from the regeneration flue gas of the methanol to olefins industry. During the operation of the wet method, there are problems such as acidic slurry corroding the equipment and white mist of water vapor discharged, which are specifically manifested in:
[0006] 1. The pH of the slurry after the regeneration flue gas is washed with water is about 2-3. The strongly acidic slurry will corrode the equipment, shorten the life of the equipment, and affect the stable and long-term operation of the device.
[0007] 2. After the flue gas is wet-dust-removed, the flue gas carries water mist and is discharged through the chimney and falls to the ground, causing ice on the road in winter. Deicing increases the workload, and the water mist is lost in the atmosphere, increasing water consumption;
[0008] 3. The slurry containing the spent catalyst is discharged into the sewage pool, increasing the burden of downstream sewage treatment. Utility Model Content

[0025] Example 1
[0026] The following is a detailed description of the working of a flue gas dust removal device for the methanol to olefins industry provided in this embodiment, which is as follows:
[0027] 650~700℃, 40000~50000Nm generated in the methanol to olefins regenerator 3 / h of flue gas, after separation by multi-stage cyclone separator, catalyst fine powder less than 20μm is entrained by flue gas into CO incinerator for combustion. After combustion, oxygen-enriched regeneration flue gas containing 8% (V / V) CO2 and 6% (V / V) O2 is cooled to 140-200℃ after heat removal by waste heat boiler and enters inlet quenching pipe 1. The regeneration flue gas at 140-200℃ is quenched to 50-60℃ in inlet quenching pipe 1 and then enters defoaming tower 2. The washing water in the initial stage of the device operation is injected into the deoxygenation tower by external deoxygenation water. In the foam tower 2, the catalyst particle dust entrained in the regenerated flue gas is washed by washing water; the regenerated flue gas after the catalyst particles are washed contacts the defoaming net 5 in the process of rising (the defoaming net 5 is a two-layer structure, each layer is composed of stacked steel wire meshes, each layer is 100 mm high, and the mesh number of the steel wire mesh is 50), and the regenerated flue gas after most of the water mist is initially removed by the defoaming net 5 enters the water mist collecting device 3, and the water mist collecting device 3 is provided with a circulating cooling water inlet and outlet, and the regenerated flue gas is further cooled to below 40°C by the circulating cooling water. The circulating cooling water flow rate is controlled at 2000-3000 t / h. The water mist collecting device 3 is connected to the inlet of the water mist collecting pump 13. When the liquid level of the water mist collecting device 3 reaches 50%, the water mist collecting pump 13 is started. After the water mist collecting pump 13 pressurizes the water to 0.3-0.5 MPa, it returns to the defoaming tower 2 and is used as washing water together with the water from the defoaming net 5. The catalyst dust entrained in the regenerated flue gas is washed by the washing water to form a slurry. The temperature of the slurry is 40-50°C.
[0028] The outlet of the slurry circulation pump 6 is set to two routes. The flow rate of the first outlet is 3.5-5 t / h, and the slurry is sent to the subsequent slurry solid-liquid separation system for liquid-solid separation; the flow rate of the second outlet is 800-1000 t / h, and after mixing with the alkali solution, it is quenched through the inlet quenching pipe 1 and then returned to the defoaming tower 2; the slurry pressures of the two routes are both 0.2-0.3 MPa.
[0029] The slurry of 0.2-0.3Mpa, 800-1000t / h and suspended matter concentration of 250-500mg / L after being pressurized by the slurry circulation pump 6 is mixed with the alkali solution after passing through the second outlet of the slurry circulation pump 6, and enters the inlet quenching tube 1 in three ways through three nozzles evenly distributed inside the inlet quenching tube 1. The slurry sprayed from the nozzles diffuses evenly and radially under the action of its own rotating centrifugal force, and seals the pipeline cavity of the foam area of the inlet quenching tube 1 from the center to the outside. The regenerated flue gas turbulently contacts the surface of a large amount of rapidly renewed 40-45°C slurry, and the catalyst particle dust entrained in the regenerated flue gas is captured and quenched together to 50-60°C. The slurry flows from the inside of the inlet quenching tube 1 to the bottom of the defoaming tower 2 to continue to participate in the circulation washing.
[0030] The slurry solid-liquid separation system includes a filter 7, a filter press 8 and a waste catalyst collection tank 9. The slurry with a flow rate of 3.5 to 5 t / h and a suspended matter concentration of 250 to 500 mg / L at the first outlet of the slurry circulation pump 6 enters the filter 7. The outlet of the filter 7 is divided into two paths. The clear liquid at the top returns to the defoaming tower 2, and the turbid liquid at the bottom enters the filter press 8 for filtration.
[0031] Two filters are provided, one for operation and one for standby. Two filter presses 8 are provided, one for operation and one for standby. The filter 7 and the filter press 8 are set with automatic control programs, and filtering and filter pressing are performed continuously.
[0032] A waste catalyst collecting tank 9 is provided below the filter press 8. The dry catalyst filtered by the filter press 8 enters the waste catalyst collecting tank 9, and the dry catalyst is bagged for post-processing.
[0033] The alkali injection system includes an alkali liquid buffer tank 10, an alkali liquid pump 11 and an alkali liquid mixer 12. The alkali liquid buffer tank 10 is connected to the inlet of the alkali liquid pump 11, and the outlet of the alkali liquid pump 11 is connected to the second outlet of the slurry circulation pump 6. The alkali liquid and the slurry are mixed in the alkali liquid mixer 12 and then enter the inlet quenching pipe 1.
[0034] The alkali liquid buffer tank 10 has a liquid level control of 50%, and the alkali liquid pump 11 changes the amount of alkali liquid injected into the defoaming tower 2 by adjusting the stroke to adjust the slurry pH to 8-9 to ensure that the equipment is not corroded. The alkali liquid is a sodium hydroxide solution with a mass fraction of 20%, and the temperature of the alkali liquid is room temperature.
[0035] The particulate matter content in the purified flue gas after washing and water mist collection is less than 10mg / Nm3 , far meeting the national standard emission requirements. At the same time, the pH of the slurry increased from 2-3 in the early stage to 8-9, and the pH of the slurry was flexibly controllable.
[0036] The application of the technical solution of the utility model solves the problems of poor operation effect of the sewage stripping system and substandard quality of purified water delivered at the existing stage.
